50% of any 2, What do we call this ? Sale Baiting?
Hi Sellers,
What do you feel about sellers advertising stuff that doesn't work for customers just to win the buybox. I have several products that I am selling and always try to maintain the best price on them and then there are sellers who have false promotions like 50% off any 2 , or something similar and they have a buying quantity limit of 1. So the customer can't even use the promo. All that just to win the buy box, I have never done it but it really is something so shady to do and really drags the customer experience down for no reason.
Just wanted to get an opinion from other sellers that face these situation? And what's the best option to do when faced with sellers like these?

yeah, this is pathetic and don't know why Amazon allows it. Same with the insane price changes, so much gaming going on and Amazon does nothing about it, very frustrating.

I wanted to follow up on your post. In regard to this matter if you think there is abuse, you do have some options for reporting potential abuse, here are some additional details:
• Report Abuse in the Amazon Store (overview video)- Provides overview of each reporting option in the Report Abuse menu in Seller Central.
• Go directly to the Report abuse page or login to Seller Central, go to Performance, then Account Health, then click Report Abuse.
• If you have a registered brand, you may also report a violation directly to the Brand Registry team.
