Against rules to contact competitor?

[user3657]

Just want to make sure?

I just want the damn buybox so I can sell a few before disbursement then he can have it! lol We've been at this for weeks and its driving me nuts. I dont think he has a repricer because at night he does not reprice.

This is called competition and its tough.

You cannot contact the supplier through amazon e mails as you will be suspended for attempting to price fix.

Are you matching his price or trying to beat his price. I have found that if you keep matching his price he will stop and you will share the buy box.

Beating the price by a few cents is silly.

Match the price or really beat the price.

Sometimes on a hot product I have to compete with china. They for sure have a sytem that instantly adjust the price lower by a few cents. I will lower the price to $1.00 and after a few hours it get raised back up to $24.99 where it needs to be. I just make sure my quantity is 1 so I also don't get sucked into the loss.

Nothing works.

He'll keep it equal for a day then lower it by $1. We've gone so low that I will lose on it.
