Liquidations - realistic outcomes?
If I liquidated a product that normally sells at $25. Am I expected to get $2.50 for it through the liquidation program? Or is it more like $1.25?
In addition, does Amazon take a chunk out of that?
It mention it can take over 90 days which seems very long. I'd be interested to hear what the realistic time frames are - 4, 5, 6 months?

Hi @Seller_YoqzncYLlALe4,
For the value: According to the "How we calculate your net recovery value" section at the FBA Liquidations help page, you'll likely receive 5-10% of the average selling price as gross recovery value (so around $1.25-$2.50). From this amount, Amazon will deduct:
- A 15% liquidations referral fee
- A liquidations processing fee that varies by item size and weight
Regarding timing: The "Track your liquidation orders" section outlines the typical process:
- When you submit the order, storage fees stop accruing immediately
- Within 30 days: Amazon ships your inventory to liquidators
- Around day 60: Payment should appear in your account
- Maximum wait time: 90 days
Storage fees stop accumulating as soon as you submit your order.
If you'd like to calculate the exact processing fees for your item based on its size and weight, you can find the current fee table at the FBA fee changes page.
Hope this helps give you a clearer picture of what to expect!
