  • Oops! You got lost in Ghost Sellerville! That means your products are being sold by ecommerce merchants who’ve hidden their true identities. But don’t worry...
We choose not reveal ourselves because we’re using data feeds to list our products. We actually never even touch it. It gets drop-shipped for us by one of the brand’s authorized sellers.
Dear Valued Customer, we would love to tell you our real name but if we did, the brands we sell would know how we got their products and then cut us off because we’re not authorized.
Not only is our name fake, but we only list a UPS store on our website. Good luck trying to figure out how we got the products we sell.
Shhh, don’t tell the brands that we’re really their main distributor. That’s because we’re not supposed to be selling retail.
We list every cool product on the planet and charge great prices. Just don’t expect to receive your order any time soon. And by the time you try to sue us we’ll be gone. Don’t blame us, blame the brand!
Did a ghost seller go away? Don’t be fooled! They could be back under a different name
Who you gonna call? MAPP Trap busters!

  • Crash! You accidentally ended up in Discountdale! The town where margins and brand value slam into a wall! But don’t worry...
Who cares what the brand wants? Consumers want stuff cheap so that’s what we’ll give them. What we lose in margin we’ll make up in volume.
MAPP Shmapp! I bought the stuff so I can sell it for any price I choose. Besides, everybody else is doing it. Tell the brand to stop them first.
Our repricing bots are the best. We just let them do their thing. You drop a dollar, we’ll drop ten.
This is where your complaints to Amazon end up.
Does your buy box price look like a fire sale?
MAPP Trap police are always looking to bust the first price droppers. We don’t even take a break for donuts!
These bots drop prices at super speed. Get a can of spider repellent at the MAPP Trap store in MAPP Trap Tower!

  • Oh, to live on Whack-a-Mole Mountain. If you want to take a nice hike we recommend you go anywhere but here, because once you arrive, you’ll spend the rest of your life trying to figure out the ever-changing sellers. But don’t worry...
Here I am. Can’t catch me!
Nope! I’m over here.
Peek-a-boo!
I can change my name all day long.
Ha! Thought you were rid of me, didn’t you?! Only MAPP Trap knows how to do that.

  • Splish splash! You took a wrong turn at Ghost Sellerville and ended up in Price Falls. And as your prices break apart on the rocks of EComm County so does your brand. But don’t worry...
It may look refreshing but these waters are price polluted and toxic to your brand
We wouldn’t recommend a honeymoon here!
Rather than the magnificent spray of water crashing against the rocks, it’s your brand that will be shattered.
Be careful as you try to grab back the lost dollars in margin. These rocks are as slippery as the sellers that set the low prices.

  • Scream! You took the turn to Amazombia and now the selling dead are dropping your prices like automatons! But don’t worry...
It’s not our fault you had to wait 30 minutes to relieve yourself. Breaks over! We need to keep our efficiencies so we can keep price matching the lowest seller on the internet.
Your 30 second break is over! The drop in productivity has been reported to your manager.
Here lies the blood of brick and mortar.
“Brand Support, may we help you? Psych! We don’t help anyone.”
Just pulled up from the China boat with some great knock-offs!

  • Be very careful as you drive over this vast, wasteland of water. It may look clear, but the waters are murky and filled with brand-eating sharks, uh, sellers that will chew up and spit out your IP. Once you fall in, it’s nearly impossible to get out. But don’t worry...
Sure swimming is allowed, if you’re desperate enough.
Watch out, it’s a retail arbitrage shark!
This shark eats chub made of datafeeds.
Who cares if your box is empty when you get it?! These sellers already got their money.
Ha! This isn’t even a real shark. Can you say counterfeit fin?!

  • Up on the hill, overlooking the squalor and lawlessness of eComm County sits MAPP Trap Tower and all of the protections it provides to unwitting travelers just looking to make an honest dollar. Some travelers arrive in Compliance City after having taken hellish detours into the depths of price erosion, others land here safely on day one. But no matter how you get here, you’ll never want to leave. While you’re in Compliance City, don’t forget to visit some landmark locations:
Keep your hands inside the ride at all times because our proprietary search bots are working all the time! These spiders crawl 100,000+ ecommerce sites in nano-seconds to bring back up-to-date and relevant product data.
Visitors to this wing of the MAPP Trap campus can witness our seller investigators as they identify who sellers really are. It’s rumored that the Mayor of Ghost Sellerville has taken a contract out on this amazing team.
This is where it all comes together! The MAPP Trap system combines the data provided from the Search Bot Building and the Merchant Research center to notify merchants of their policy violations. Our compliance experts are constantly back-slapping and high-fiving over the incredible results they get for client MAP, Authorized Reseller & IP Rights policies.
