THIRD PARTY SELLERS SEEK OVER £2.7 BILLION IN COMPENSATION FROM AMAZON
Third party sellers on Amazon’s Marketplace are seeking proper redress for Amazon’s abusive practices. Please register your interest in the claim.
The Claim
Professor Andreas Stephan is bringing a UK opt-out competition damages claim on behalf of UK-domiciled third-party sellers against Amazon. The claim, estimated to be worth over £2.7 billion, focuses on multiple anti-competitive practices by Amazon that have harmed UK sellers and has been filed in the Competition Appeal Tribunal, the UK’s specialist competition court.
The claim alleges that Amazon has abused its dominant position in the market for the supply of e-commerce marketplace services to third-party sellers to reach customers in the UK by engaging in abusive behaviour that:
- unfairly advantages its own retail products, harming third-party sellers;
- unfairly advantages its own logistics/fulfilment arm, harming other logistics/fulfilment providers, and in turn, third-party sellers; and
- unfairly biases customers towards Amazon and away from rival e-commerce marketplaces, harming third-party sellers.
