🚩 Flags

The Flags data point in Rocket Source is a bit of a "catch-all". It is generally used to signal that there is something special about the results for this listing that you should look at a bit closer.
At the very moment, flags aren't used at all!
But in the near future, we will be pushing out updates to flag items that:
  • Amazon does not have FBA fees listed for

    Generally if you see this, you will want to take the FBA fees with a grain of salt, as they could change.
  • Amazon cannot calculate referral fees for
    In some cases, Amazon itself isn't able to return a referral fee for us. In these cases, to calculate the referral fee.

    Generally if you see this, you will want to take the referral fees with a grain of salt, as the referral fees could change.
  • If the current buybox price is under MAP price (only eligible if you included the MAP price when selecting columns)
  • If there are no FBA offers, but there are FBM offers.
    This can be an indicator that the item may not be eligible for FBA.
