Dimensional weight since Amazon is basing the FBA fee off of item weight or dimensional weight whichever is greater - dimensional weight is easy to calculate but people just make it way too confusing - it's simply L x W x H = X then divide X by 139 to get Y then you round to the next whole LB (a lot of ppl miss this part) - this is the weight that is used to calculate the FBA fee if using dimensional weight - so how do we use this info? you work backward to figure out if you can reduce your FBA fee by shrinking your dimensions slightly.. for example, if you have a product that weighs 2-3lbs but has the dimensions 16 x 9 x 3, your dimensional weight is 3.11 lbs (16*9*3 = 432 / 139 = 3.11) and because of that .11 lbs of extra-dimensional weight, you're bumped up to 4 lbs and the next pricing tier from $5.79 to $6.43 or $.64 more per unit or an 11% increase in fees.. so what do you do? you have to determine whether it's reasonable that you can shrink your dimensional weight to 3 lbs or less by slightly reducing your dimensions L x W x H to equal less than 417 (which is just 139 * 3). If you can shave just 1 or 2 inches off like 15.9*8.9* 2.8 = 396 / 139 = 2.85 lbs = bumped up to 3 lbs, not 4 - note dimensional weight is a factor in calculating your storage fees too.

NOTE: 18 x 14 x 8 is the Standard Size and if you exceed these dimensions, you're going to go into Small Oversized where the math is slightly different

Sometimes people want to know when they sent in a particular sku last, how many units were shipped in, etc but they think the only way is to go through the FBA shipments and find the last shipment for that sku.. Much easier/faster doing this - Reports - Fulfillment - Under Inventory - Received Inventory - simply enter sku and filter to date range wanted and it will identify all of the FBA shipments into the FC for that particular sku

How to see your estimated monthly storage fees for next month.. Reports - Fulfillment - Manage Inventory Health - in one of the very far right columns it gives you this amount - Momstir's estimate for November is $3164 right now.This is a good thing to know especially right now in the 4th qtr. This report also tells you ways that you can reduce your storage fees by doing certain things.
