That is absolutely irrelevant in every respect. Company A has costs of $10 and sells at $15. Company B has costs of $8 and sells at $11. Company B has undercut Company A. Company B still has a healthy margin on what it sells.

The op claimed that Amazon operates with healthy profit margins which isn't really the case... "your margin is my opportunity"

Amazon has pretty incredible margins as a business. They invest the profit margin into new ventures and growth.

Amazon has very good margins, what are you talking about? They bring in tons of cash every quarter.
