AlphaDiscounters Marketplace Fair Pricing Policy

Estimated reading: 2 minutes 25 views

Sellers are responsible for setting their own prices on AlphaDiscounters marketplaces. In our mission to be Earth’s most customer-centric company, AlphaDiscounters strives to provide our customers with the largest selection at the lowest price, and with the fastest delivery as sellers play an important role.

AlphaDiscounters regularly monitors the prices of items on our marketplaces, including shipping costs, and compares them with other prices available to our customers. If we see pricing practices on a marketplace offer that harms customer trust, AlphaDiscounters can remove the Buy Box, remove the offer, suspend the ship option, or, in serious or repeated cases, suspending or terminating selling privileges.

Pricing practices that harm customer trust include, but are not limited to:

  • Setting a reference price on a product or service that misleads customers;
  • Setting a price on a product or service that is significantly higher than recent prices offered on or off AlphaDiscounters; or
  • Selling multiple units of a product for more per unit than that of a single unit of the same product.
  • Setting a shipping fee on a product that is excessive. AlphaDiscounters considers current public carrier rates, reasonable handling charges, as well as buyer perception when determining whether a shipping price violated our fair pricing policy.
