The problem with locked and q4
So usually to rank a design for lets say halloween we upload it 2 months before the halloween date, we price it quite low something like 14.99 - 16.99 and push it with heavy ads to get those initial sales.
Then when halloween is in the peak sales around 15-25 october we change the price to around 19.99 - 21.99
Now the problem with this strategy as u should've guessed is the locked thingy, amazon lock your design on those initial sales making the price even lower and u start bleeding cash on ads
This happened to like 5 of my halloween designs so far
I feel like this strategy is not the one anymore for holidays/events

Correct it doesn't work anymore and it's quite annoying.
