📋 Overview

The SellerMagnet Repricer automatically adjusts your Amazon listing prices based on competitor activity, Buy Box status, and the strategy rules you define. It monitors your products continuously and reprices them within the boundaries you set, ensuring you win the Buy Box when possible while never selling below your minimum profitable price.

The Repricer supports two distinct use cases with purpose-built strategies:

  • Reseller strategies: Compete for the Buy Box against other sellers on shared listings

  • Brand Owner / Private Label strategies: Protect your brand's pricing integrity and enforce MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) policies

Is this for you? If you compete with other sellers on shared listings, the Repricer saves hours of manual price monitoring. If you sell your own brand exclusively, use Brand Owner strategies to protect pricing. Expected time savings: 3-4 hours/week.

Repricer Dashboard

Create Repricer modal: strategy, cost basis, and live price preview

The Repricer Dashboard is your single source of truth for every rule you have created. In the summary view, you see how many products are managed, how many are currently winning the Buy Box, and which items still need attention. Everything updates in real time as the engine runs in the background.

1. KPI Cards

Four cards across the top of the dashboard summarise your repricing footprint and live performance:

KPI
Description
Color

Total Repricers

Total number of repricer rules created across all of your connected marketplaces

🔵 Blue

Brand-PL Repricers

Subset of rules using Brand Owner / Private Label strategies (MAP enforcement, etc.)

🟣 Purple

Running

Rules that are actively repricing right now but have not yet secured the Buy Box

🟠 Amber

Buy Box

Rules currently holding the Buy Box for their listing

🟢 Green

lightbulb

Tip: "Total Repricers" is the master count. Brand-PL, Running, and Buy Box are subsets that always add up to (or fit inside) the total, useful for quickly spotting where most of your portfolio sits.

2. Status Breakdown

Below the KPI row, a horizontal bar chart visualises how your rules are distributed across the four lifecycle states:

Status
What it means

Inactive

Rules that have been created but are not currently running

Brand-PL

Brand Owner / Private Label rules enforcing your own pricing

Running (Not Won)

Rules actively repricing, but a competitor currently holds the Buy Box

Buy Box Secured

Rules currently winning and holding the Buy Box

Use this chart to spot imbalances, for example, a tall "Running (Not Won)" bar means many rules are competing without success and may need a strategy review.

3. Latest Activity

To the right of the chart, the Latest Activity panel shows a colour-coded timeline of the most recent events from the repricing engine:

  • 🟢 Green: Successful Buy Box wins and price updates

  • 🟡 Amber: Warnings such as "at min price" or "cannot lower"

  • 🔵 Blue: Informational events such as a rule being started

Each entry shows the affected ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number), what changed, and how long ago the event occurred. This is the fastest way to confirm that the engine is doing its job.

4. Status Tabs

Directly above the items table, four tabs let you slice your portfolio by lifecycle state. Each tab shows a count badge so you can immediately see how many rules sit in each bucket.

Rules that have been created but are not currently active. Use this tab to bulk-start newly imported repricers, or to clean up rules you no longer need.

5. Items Table

The main table lists every rule in the selected tab. It exposes 13 columns so you can see all the critical information without opening individual rules:

Bulk-select rows for batch actions (start, stop, delete, export)

SKU (Stock Keeping Unit)

Your seller SKU for the listing

ASIN

Amazon Standard Identification Number

FUL.

Fulfillment channel : FBA (blue) or FBM (amber)

Product

Product image and title

Price

Max

Status

Strategy

Repricing strategy applied to the rule (e.g. BuyBox, Competitive, MAP)

Last Update

Quota System

Your subscription plan determines the number of products you can actively reprice. The dashboard surfaces:

  • Current usage versus your plan limit

  • An Upgrade link when you approach or exceed the quota


chevron-right⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoidhashtag
Mistake
Why It Hurts

Setting min price below your breakeven cost

You sell at a loss every time the repricer hits the floor

Setting min and max too close together

The repricer has no room to maneuver and effectively becomes static

Ignoring the Running (Not Won) tab

Opportunities to win the Buy Box go unnoticed

Never checking the Latest Activity log

You miss patterns like repeated price-floor hits that signal margin erosion

Running reseller strategies on private-label products

Reseller strategies compete on price; brand owners should protect price

## ✅ Best Practices

  1. Check the Running (Not Won) tab daily: This is where the highest-impact opportunities live. If a rule has been stuck here for days, revisit its strategy or min price.

  2. Set meaningful price boundaries: Your min price should be your breakeven point plus a target margin buffer. Your max price should be the highest realistic selling price for the product.

  3. Use the correct strategy type: Reseller strategies for arbitrage/wholesale items; Brand-PL strategies for your own brands.

  4. Monitor the Buy Box Secured count over time: A steadily declining count means competitors are becoming more aggressive. Consider adjusting strategy parameters.

  5. Use bulk operations: When onboarding a new product batch, use bulk import and bulk start to activate all repricers simultaneously rather than one by one.


❓ FAQ

chevron-rightHow often does the repricer adjust prices?hashtag

The repricer checks for competitor changes continuously and can adjust prices multiple times per hour, depending on market activity and your subscription plan.

chevron-rightWill the repricer ever price below my minimum?hashtag

No. The minimum price is an absolute floor. The repricer will never set a price below this value, even if it means losing the Buy Box.

chevron-rightCan I reprice items on multiple marketplaces simultaneously?hashtag

Yes. Each marketplace-ASIN combination is treated as a separate repricer rule. You can set different strategies and price boundaries for the same product on different marketplaces.

chevron-rightWhat happens when I pause a repricer?hashtag

The price freezes at its current value. No further adjustments are made until you restart the repricer.

chevron-rightDoes the repricer work for used-condition items?hashtag

Yes. You can filter by condition (New or Used) and apply strategies to either condition type.

chevron-rightHow do I know if a repricer rule has an issue?hashtag

Open the Running (Not Won) tab and sort by Last Update, or scan the Latest Activity log for amber and red events. The Status column also shows badges like "At Min" or "Error" directly on each row.
