Amazon referral fees, the media closing fee and the plans as of October 13, 2026 (sell.amazon.com/pricing, official), checked October 13, 2026. Fixed formulas; no AI computes a number. Estimate FBA, storage, aged-stock, low-inventory, placement, returns, peak and coupon fees come from third-party 2026 rate cards (Amazon's tables are behind the Seller Central login): every figure built on them is marked an estimate and shown apart from the leak total; the grade includes them and says how much. Your Fee Preview shows your real fees.
