Within that 100% group, the median seller has 33 ratings and 32.3% have fewer than 10. UK-based sellers carry more ratings: a median of 200 against 60.5 for China-based sellers.

On 23 to 24 September 2026 we used Scrapewise to collect public amazon.co.uk search results for 868 everyday shopping keywords. The keywords cover 16 categories: beauty, health, home, kitchen, tools, garden, pets, toys, baby, office, sport, camping, electronics, car, crafts and music, and fashion and travel. We captured up to 7 result pages per keyword, which gave 197,022 unique products. For each product we recorded the price, star rating, review count, badges and the "bought in past month" label. We then read each product's offer listing and the public profile page of every seller we found, 55,660 sellers from a wider 1,068-keyword pass.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>What it is not. This is a keyword-driven sample, not all of Amazon UK. It is one point in time, and prices, deals and badges change often. A seller's country is the business address the seller declares to Amazon, not where its stock sits. The "bought in past month" label is Amazon's own rounded figure, so we treat it as a minimum. Review counts above a thousand are shown rounded, and Amazon often pools reviews across variants of the same product. We capture about 11 sellers per product at most, so heavily contested products are undercounted. Sponsored flags cover only the ad slots our parser recognised, so the sponsored share is a minimum. All figures are medians or shares unless we say otherwise.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>What we left out. We excluded the ratings on "Save X%" tiles, which our parser misread for a while. One large account is absent from the seller file; it sits on 14,923 products, and we left those products out of every seller-country figure. Review pooling across variants cannot be measured, so we make no claim about it. The story of what broke, and how we fixed it, is in \u003Ca href=\"/blogs/how-we-scraped-amazon-uk-search-results-2026\">how we scraped Amazon UK search results\u003C/a>.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>We publish aggregates only: no seller names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, company names, VAT numbers or seller IDs.

We do not verify it.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Label floor: the number in Amazon's "bought in past month" label, such as "1K+ bought in past month". It is a rounded minimum, so any total built from it is a lower bound.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Median: the middle value. Half the products sit above it and half below. We use it instead of the mean because a few extreme prices would pull the mean far off.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Price spread: the price at the dear end of a group (p90) divided by the price at the cheap end (p10).\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Same-search comparison: two groups compared inside each keyword first, then summarised as the median across keywords.
