这是摘自一个美国老美卖家的英文博客，只摘选了一部分，如果你们有兴趣看全文可以点击： outright.com/blog/fulfillment-by-amazon-is-it-worth-it
Amazon仓库的费用非常多样，具体有这样几个费用：
▲费用１：【 头程，只能选择ＵＰＳ】
You are responsible for the shipping cost to send them the goods. However, you are charged at Amazon’s UPS rate, not yours. Yes, Amazon’s UPS rates will floor you.
头程的运输费用是不能选择其他头程的，必须用亚马逊指定的ＵＰＳ发货，
而且是按照他们给你的ＵＰＳ的中国→美国的价格，不是你找的ＵＰＳ折扣价，是他们指定的，对，这个价钱会非常厉害。
▲费用２：【“卖家销售费”１５％的】
Amazon still takes the normal seller fees (15% for media, etc.) when your item sells.
您的每一个商品从AMAZON的FBF仓库卖出、发货，amazon要收取15%的卖家消费税。
▲费用３：【按照订单重量，入库出库收2次】
Amazon will also charge you a fee to store your item, another fee to pick your item, and a weight-based fee when an order ships.
当您把货物按照个数储存到FBA仓库，收一次费用，当您准备拿出去卖，在收一次费用，而且不是按照个数，是按照每个订单的重量来收费2次的。
HOWEVER, Amazon recently announced a very significant price increase on fees that will go into effect next February that will force myself and many others to re-evaluate the model.Amazon can also store and ship your products that sell on other marketplaces besides Amazon. Honestly, I believe these fees are too high to be competitive, but it’s an option.
★在今年二月份，亚马逊宣布了一系列非常明显的价格提高的声明，这样会使很多卖家重新打乱自己的运营和成本模式。
亚马逊还可以提供卖向其他市场的（比如ebay）的仓储配送服务，不过那个价格实在太高，但也是一种选择。
Amazon also pulled a pretty nasty rabbit out of their FBA hat earlier this year – they decided to implement a Long Term Storage Fee for items in the FBA warehouses for over a year. Of course, logically, this makes sense for them to do, but unfortunately the effect for sellers who had been in the program for a long time felt like Amazon was holding their product hostage. In other words, they changed the fee structure AFTER they had my product, and yes, they charge you a pick fee per item to return your product to you (or in my case they offered to destroy the items for free, which ended up being $25,000 cheaper than returning it). In technical terms, it was kind of a big, fat, bummer.
★在今年上半年，amazon还做出了一个令人意外的举动，亚马逊决定启用长期FBA仓储的“包年费”，当然如果您长期使用amazon的服务是很正常的，但是不幸的是这一举动让已经决定要长期使用FBA服务的卖家，感到亚马逊想要通过这一举动hold住货物作为挟制。换句话说，它们是在货物已经到了仓库之后才提高费用的。还有，如果你想把货物拿回来，亚马逊还要收取一次高昂的退货取货费。（或者亚马逊可以免费提供“处理毁掉”货物这个选项，这样要比把货物还给你便宜两万五千美元。）这样的处理措施让我们感觉非常的不爽。
Overall, I’d give FBA a B. It is still a wonderful service that frees up my time tremendously and allows me to grow my business (or read all 5,000 pages of The Game of Thrones Series), but the upcoming fee increases aren’t looking good for my product and the long term storage charges really hurt as well.
★总而言之，我会给FBA仓库服务一个Ｂ的分数，它对部分卖家来说还是可以提供一段时间空余的时间去增长自己的生意（或者有了空余时间看《权利的游戏》奇幻小说，笑）而不是管理国际物流存储，但是这个空余时间是用高昂的ＦＢＡ管理费用来换来的，而且这个包年费实在令人疼惜。
Winter is Coming.
冬季将至（权利的游戏里面的狼族的口号……）
