You know that you or me need to pay for those costs(losses) somehow?

  We are aleardy paying /have already paid for those. The margin Amazon makes is (way) bigger than the losses they just had. So all the previous buyers that gave Amazon money and contributed to those margins "paid" for those cost, I think.

    Dollars don’t really maintain identity when they are grouped into accounts and later withdrawn. There are different ways to do accounting, fifo, lifo etc, it’s mostly a construction ( though it is necessary to be consistent), not exactly “real”. I would be less concerned about who paid for it, and more concerned on who would receive an effect as a result.
