If a seller does not add pricing limits for each of their products, Amazon\u2019s default potential error rules will apply to all of the seller\u2019s listings (which Amazon say are based on historic prices for each product).<\/p>\n<h2>Deactivation of Listings<\/h2>\n<p>Amazon will notify sellers when\u00a0any potential pricing errors are detected and deactivate those listings that are affected. If your listings become deactivated, you can resolve the potential pricing errors with your Seller Central account, under the My Inventory link using the following options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>Potential pricing error<\/strong> filter under the\u00a0<strong>Fix price alerts<\/strong> view.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>Inactive<\/strong> filter under the <strong>Show my Inventory<\/strong> or the <strong>All Inventory<\/strong> view (in the left navigation pane).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Users of the Beta version of Manage Inventory will be able to click <strong>Fix Price alerts<\/strong> from the top navigation or click <strong>All Inventory<\/strong> and select <strong>Inactive<\/strong> under the <strong>Listing Status<\/strong> drop-down.<\/p>\n<h2>Reactivation of Listings<\/h2>\n<p>To reactivate or unblock listings that have been deactivated due to potential pricing errors, sellers will need to either confirm or update the listings details via:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Manage Inventory<\/li>\n<li>Price &amp; Quantity file<\/li>\n<li>Inventory Loader file<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Amazon offers <a title=\"Unblocking Your Listings on Amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/sellercentral-europe.amazon.com\/gp\/help\/201141430\">extensive help<\/a> within your Seller Central account on reactivating blocked listings.<\/p>\n<h2>Avoiding Deactivation of Listings<\/h2>\n<p>We would highly recommend that you set your own minimum and maximum allowed selling prices for each product to avoid deactivation of listings, as Amazon does not divulge what limits its own default potential error rules set each product&#8217;s min\/max to, other than they are based on products&#8217; sales history data.
