Amazon Pro Merchant...Very Confused..

Hi all,
I have a amazon marketplace account (used and new) which I have been using for a year and more now.
I decided today to upgrade to a pro merchant account as i sell over 30 items a month so I read through here it would make more sense.
I am really confused now about the difference between a marketplce item and a Zshop item.
Some of my items have appeared in my zshop lisings but not all.
I sold one of my items this evening and I dont see it being any cheaper than usual (I thought you saved 0.86 or so per item)
Am I doing something wrong. I cant find much on the amazon help page.
Is anyone else a pro merchant? If so can you advise me
Thanks

Yeah I have a had a look at that thanks but it doesnt clear it up.
I was hoping that there was someone out there with similar experiance.

Posting on that thread would be worth a try... that's where all the Amazon peeps hang out

I don't have a Pro account so I can't help.My TV is broken!
Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j0 -
I think that we've all been over the hills and far away today....
I'm not sure why some listings are Marketplace and some are Zshops? I hope someone else can answer that one.
When you get your sold dispatch now email you'll see that your payment is 86p better than it used to be, this is really noticeable when you sell a cheaper item.
Please come over to the amazon thread and say hello :hello:0 -
It really is a strange one.
I have been upgraded to Pro for two days now. I have 200 Marketplace listings but Zshops show as 0.
When a marketplace item sells, i am not being deducted the 86p.
Amazon have been no help. I think what I have to do is close them all then relist them. It seems new items I list are going as zshop and Marketplace.
Very annoying as it will take me ages to relist 200 items.
Has anyone else got some ideas
