How to exclude dropshippers/retailers lowering the average market price?

Modified on Wed, 9 Jul at 3:40 PM

Today's e-commerce market often and in various industries, we encounter situations in which dropshippers lower prices in pax to market prices /our prices, which can negatively affect the price stability and image of our brand. 

In the case of dynamic pricing, we do not want to base our prices on unfair competition. In response to these challenges, we at Dealavo offer a few solutions that will only allow comparisons with actual competition: 

1) If you already have rules set up in the Repricing tab - increase the minimum limit in Rule Restrictions. The first step you can take is to increase the minimum limit in the rule. This will allow you to exclude listings that are below a certain level, which will naturally reduce the influence of dropshippers using aggressive pricing.

2) If you have / do not have rules set in the Repricing tab - exclude retailers that deviate from the rest of the ranking. The second solution is for you to exclude retailers whose prices deviate significantly from the rest of the ranking manually. To do this, you need a list of names of such retailers. You can exclude them: 


(a) from the view in the application in the Products tab:



and confirm the selection with Preset:



(b) by unclicking them from the comparison in the rule:



Such a choice is permanent and will not change unless you change it yourself. 


3) If you have/have not set rules in the Repricing tab - setting so-called higher price thresholds. The third proposed solution is to set higher price thresholds on the account and requires a reconciliation of the account on our side. You can set limits on matched offers, for example, at 20% of the difference from your price. This way, bids that deviate significantly from the set norm will be automatically excluded from the ranking. If you are interested in such an option, please contact your dedicated account manager or support@dealalvo.com and we will prepare it for you.
