A competitor of AWS claimed that AWS' egress fees are excessive and by how much - https://blog.cloudflare.com/aws-egregious-egress/

As for a fair price, I think Cloudflare and BackBlaze provide S3 API compatible services with better pricing. Cloudflare doesn't charge for egress at all. This lends substance to their claim that AWS is overcharging for egress.

Egress fees on AWS are high, but I'm not sure free from Cloudflare is the best evidence given they still haven't had a profitable year (getting close though in recent quarters).
