by | Dec 17, 2025 | Latest E-commerce News & Updates

Apple and Amazon faced a new UK class action seeking over £900 million for allegedly colluding to restrict independent sellers and inflate prices. The claim targeted an October 2018 agreement where Amazon limited third-party resellers in exchange for favorable wholesale terms from Apple. The lawsuit covered UK consumers who purchased Apple or Beats products since late 2018 and revived allegations previously rejected by a tribunal in 2023.
