Isn't retail margin usually 50%? Doesn't Amazon use some of their savings from not having a retail store front to subsidize shipping? I assume the Prime fee doesn't actually cover the cost, it simply is a mechanism to lock people into ordering.
- simonbarker87 9y agoWe sell a product through Amazon on their vendor program. After all the deductions we come up with about 50% more cash per product than through the one traditional retailer we have. We only make few more percent through our own website as Amazon's own margins are so thin. They offer a much better deal than the rest of retail.
