New to FBA after only using FBM – please help!

Hey all,

I had a lucky run of a year and a half of no competition on Amazon, so I was able to use FBM with no issue and lots of success. Suddenly, another seller is using FBA for the same products at a lower price, so I had to follow suit. My sales have dropped significantly so I really have no other choice.

As an experiment, I sent off 45 units and have sold 3 so far. My questions are:

1) Where can I find a break down of the fees for each item sold?

2) How much is Amazon charging me in shipping from their warehouse to the consumer? Where can I find that information?

3) How soon after a sale will Amazon acknowledge it as “units sold”?

4) How soon after a sale does it count toward your payout? For FBM it’s after you ship the item, but it doesn’t seem to be the case for FBA

After finally feeling like I’d mostly mastered FBM, it really feels like i’m starting from scratch here. Thanks for your help in advance!
