Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro and Charles Lyndon win carriage dispute on landmark Amazon Buy Box consumers class action.

Evidence from Fideres and its in-house expert Dr Chris Pike proved decisive in winning the carriage dispute between rival class actions. The Expert report analysed Amazon’s market power within the relevant market and the anticompetitive nature of its conduct in manipulating the algorithm that allocates the Buy Box. It set out a damages analysis and a methodology to quantify the harmful impact of the anticompetitive conduct.

Consumers claim damages resulting from alleged overcharge on products purchased through the Buy Box since October 2015.
