Some Facts about Amazon Best Sellers

 
In some sub-categories, there may not even be 100 best sellers because the category is so slender.

We have performed tests on some sub-categories. There are fewer than 100 listings in TOP100 best sellers. However, even being the top spot in category can’t get a Best Seller badge. It is not known whether there are at least 100 listings in TOP100. But only thing we can say for sure is that not all the highest ranking products on the categories can have the Best Seller badge.
