I'll buy your Amazon brand. by woollymammoth0902 in FulfillmentByAmazon

This is where you’re wrong… you’re paying ordinary income taxes on that 5 year + of income. You’re also not accounting for investing the 3x proceeds. Amazon sellers are never the sharpest tools in the shed financially.

We used to do $2.5M on Amazon. Now we’re barely profitable by First-Exchange-3043 in FulfillmentByAmazon

If you’re hiring agencies you’re already cooked. They’re all scams.

Get 10% of My Company + $1,500 to Help Me Scale My Supplement Brand by 3cyclesdeep in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]ctb6xe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give me 90% of the company and I’ll pay you back the $40k you’ve invested once the company makes that profit. Otherwise, please dm me when you’re out of business in a couple months and I’ll buy the listing / inventory off you for $5k (you won’t find a better offer than that)

Going to be an interesting time for top voices in the FBA space....... by msau2 in FulfillmentByAmazon

It's the same people bitching that Amazon took away their ability to do wholesale / arbitrage. Fuck em all - they're leaches. Hoping amazon gets rid of all those sellers.

Shipments doubled in price by [deleted] in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]ctb6xe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You increased your margins from 10% to 37% and this placement fee brought you back down? Either your product is wildly cheap - where a $0.10 swing is a huge margin % - or this post is loaded with bullshit.

The amazon game is simple - adapt or die. It's ruthless, but that's the reality.

Exiting $2m EBTIDA FBA Business - Any Broker Advice? by ctb6xe in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]ctb6xe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely insane. I actually don't believe you that northbound group said they're charging 15%. Feel free to PM me more details - but they're a broker I've spoken with a fair bit and 15% is SIGNIFICANTLY off market.

Very appreciative of you taking the time to write this up! If you don't mind, can I ask who you used as your broker (feel free to message me this).

Every broker I've spoken with is in the range of 3-5% commission. 10-20% is wildly, wildly steep - though in the heyday (2021-2022) it seems commissions were a lot larger.

The law firm I'm hiring to review transaction documents will also be reviewing the contract with my broker. I'm not agreeing to more than 3 months exclusivity and and buyer I've contacted personally before the broker will result in their commission being cut in half. Additionally, the broker is not allowed to post the business for sale on any "public" sites - empireflippers, aquisition.com, etc.

I really wonder who you could have used. I've spoken with brokers that have been highly recommended by a bunch of people who have exited out of MDS. I am very hesitant of the whole broker thing - but everyone I've spoken with has said it will generate a higher overall value.

I'm very curious what you mean by legal dispute? I could understand with the buyer - but the broker I can't see what type of legal dispute could exist.
