Mike and Dave talk about the end of off-Amazon rebates and coupons and what they think sellers across the white-hat-black-hat spectrum will be doing moving forward.

You really can't predict what Amazon will do next these days. One minute I make a prediction that they won't ban rebates because it makes them money, the next minute they're bringing the hammer down on RebateKey.

In this episode, Dave and I will break down Amazon's latest policy drop regarding off-Amazon rebates and coupons, what the next white-hat and black-hat tactics are likely going to be, and how you can still succeed on Amazon moving forward.
