🚨 Breaking News 🚨 Amazon Faces 10 Million Euro Fine for Unfair Trade Practices! The Italian antitrust authority AGCM has imposed a hefty fine of 10 million euros on ecommerce giant Amazon for unfair trade practices. This fine targets two of Amazon's subsidiaries: Amazon Services Europe and Amazon EU. This isn't the first time Amazon has come under scrutiny in Europe. In Germany, the Federal Cartel Office (FCO) has investigated Amazon's activities, resulting in a significant fine of 746 million euros imposed by the European Union in 2021. Additionally, in the same year, AGCM levied a record penalty of 1.13 billion euros against Amazon. This penalty was associated with Fulfilment by Amazon, which was found to have abused its market dominance and disadvantaged competitors, according to the regulator.

With today's good news that the #DUP are to return to #powersharing in #northernireland, I can't help wondering what they will say on the 13th December when the #GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation) kicks in and many British #retailers may refuse to sell (or be prevented from selling) to that part of the #UK? #EU #BREXIT #amazon #ecommerce

New "Technology" post from THE HILL: Judge partially dismisses FTC's antitrust lawsuit against Amazon A federal judge on Monday partially dismissed the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) antitrust lawsuit against Amazon. However, few details are currently available about U.S. District Judge John Chun’s decision, which was filed under seal. Amazon asked the judge to dismiss the FTC’s lawsuit in December, arguing that the practices the agency deemed anti-competitive are actually “common retail practices that presumptively benefit consumers.” The FTC and 17 states sued Amazon last September, accusing the e-commerce giant of engaging in anti-competitive practices that raise prices for shoppers and extract excessively high fees from sellers. The agency alleged that Amazon uses tactics that deter other online retailers from offering lower prices and makes it more expensive for sellers to offer their products on other platforms by tying their eligibility for Prime to their use of Amazon’s fulfillment services. However, Amazon argued in its motion to dismiss in December that its pricing mechanism is a standard discounting tactic encouraged by antitrust laws. It also disputed the allegations that it conditions Prime eligibility on the use of its fulfillment services. “Amazon promptly matches rivals’ discounts, features competitively priced deals rather than overpriced ones, and ensures best-in-class delivery for its Prime subscribers,” it argued in the filing. “Those practices—the targets of this antitrust Complaint— benefit consumers and are the essence of competition.” Both Amazon and the FTC declined to comment on Monday’s decision. https://bit.ly/3XO6Pb1

Amazon's threat is real and imminent. With two new distribution centers planned by 2026 and an expanding Prime delivery network, retailers must innovate around customer needs or risk falling behind.

BIRA Files £1.1bn Lawsuit Against Amazon The British Independent Retailers Association (BIRA) is launching a £1.1 billion lawsuit against Amazon, accusing it of misusing its members' proprietary data for competitive gains and manipulating the "Buy Box" feature to favor its products. This legal action marks the UK's largest collective retail claim, covering grievances from October 2015 to the present, sparked by Amazon's significant market influence which forces small retailers to rely on its platform despite high commission fees and now, alleged data misuse. This case unfolds amid ongoing scrutiny over Amazon's market practices, including a recent settlement with the UK's Competition and Markets Authority to avoid a full investigation into similar issues. https://lnkd.in/d95zXH3Q Platform: TechCrunch Author: Ingrid Lunden #commerce #amazon #data #dataprivacy #datacollection #personaldata #retailers #lawsuit #dataabuse #uk

Observing that Amazon does not have an appropriate grievance redressal mechanism and has "one-sided oppressive" sale terms, a consumer commission here has imposed a fine of Rs 35,000 on the online seller and one of its retailers for deficiencies in services. The commission has also directed Amazon to provide a foolproof and transparent grievance redressal mechanism to customers. #retail #retailnews #latestnews #Etailing #Amazon #ConsumerComission #AmazonFine #Ecommerce #AmazonSellerService #ApparioRetailPrivateLimited
