6-7 months usual shipping time?
I have a product listing which is currently available. None have yet sold, which is fine, but the entry shows as 6-7 months usual delivery time. The shipping template should set that to about a week at most, and as there have been no shipments I'm not sure what it's being based on. Does anyone know how to fix this, as 6-7 months shipping time isn't likely to encourage any customers to buy?
I have the inventory physically on hand and will be direct shipping to fulfill any orders.

What's the ASIN so we can have a look?
In the meantime ...
on the Offer tab
a) check the handling time is set to 1 or 2 days (whichever is appropriate for you)
b) check the Offer Start date is in the past not the future
c) check that the restock date is empty
And on the Product Details tab, check the Release Date is in the past

There is no fix - as that is the delivery time for the other seller. When/if you qualify for the Buy Box it will show your delivery time of 5 days - that is how Amazon works I am afraid

Your offer is £2.99 more expensive than Amazon's offer (due to the shipping charge), so there's little chance that you get the Buy Box I'm afraid. If an independent seller was taking 6-7 months to dispatch I doubt they'd get the buy box. Amazon looks after Amazon.

This happens a lot with Amazon on out-of-print books. The system often gives Amazon itself the buybox with ludicrously long dispatch times.
It does this even though it almost never has the items in question in stock (normally because they are long out of print with no hope of sourcing new copies).
In my experience it is normally old Penguins, mostly 40+ year old editions which Amazon lists with the original cover prices from the 1970s or even the 1960s. Prices like 15p, for example...with free delivery!
If a 3rd party seller attempts to list above the Amazon price they get hit with a 'high price alert' and their listing is suppressed.
It's crazy, but that is Amazon's wacky bot-driven system for you.
I'm not sure how or why it applies to a new in-print editions such as your example.
Possibly something to do with the way the ISBN has been registered?
