Amazon knows about the day.
Amazon has third party independent sellers.
Amazon decided this was a good opportunity for them and their marketplace.
It's not mysterious. It hurts small stores that aren't aligned with Amazon and helps Amazon and small stores aligned with Amazon. Looks like typical Amazon bullying which has already been accepted since nobody is challenging the passthru book marketplace. Amazon used to sell books though, so that matters?
