There are two key numbers as a minimum that BuyBotPro requires to conduct any analysis on a deal; the Buy Price and the Sell Price.
In the Calculator section of the panel, sellers enter the Buy Price they are able to source the product for.
The Sell Price will depend on what metric the seller wants to use to analyse the deal.
By default, this is set as the current Buy Box price – or the current low price, including shipping, if there is no Buy Box.
This default can be set to one of several other price metrics. In the Advanced section of the Settings tab there is a drop-down box with alternative options to choose from.
These are:
Low FBA (the lowest FBA price regardless of the Buy Box)
Buy Box
FBA 90 Day Average
New 90 Day Average
Buy Box 90 Day Average
The 90 day average prices are generated by BuyBotPro and offer sellers an alternative price from which to analyse a deal with.
The Buy Box is the most common price to default to, however it does only give a snapshot to the CURRENT performance.
Amazon listings are dynamic so it can be useful to get data that covers some of the recent history. The 90 day average offers an insight into the behaviour of a listing over what is a commonly used time period for most analysis.
The Selling Price can still be manually adjusted to a current, historic or bespoke figure of a user’s choice in the BuyBotPro panel, but having a preferred default one will mean a seller can consistently analyse products.
