Sounds like standard retail in the 90's. The place I worked at had percentages you needed to meet for service plans and accessories. We were told to push 4 ink cartridges and photo and regular paper with every printer. Don't forget your gold plated parallel cable! The biggest sellers got promoted to department leads and then assistant store manager. Amazon isn't anything different. You're bombarded with offers to sign up for the Amazon Visa, "Get $50 off with approval of the Amazon Rewards Visa". They try to sneak in the Asurion warranty. 'Customers who bought this item also bought...' is where they push the high-margin accessories. They don't make any money on the big items. Nobody ever did. It's the service an accessories.
