Amazon Introduces Second Buy Box for Thirdparty Sellers

Amazon is reportedly planning a "second buy box" to address competition concerns between third-party sellers and its own retail operations. This initiative stems from an antitrust agreement with the European Union and aims to create a fairer competitive landscape on the platform. The second buy box would potentially give more visibility to alternative sellers, offering consumers more choices and potentially lower prices. This move is expected to alleviate some of the pressure felt by third-party sellers who often struggle to compete with Amazon's own products.
