So basically build a storefront in front of Amazon's storefront, which is a storefront in front of the storefronts of many unfortunate merchants.

And the winner is the one with the storefront that is most in front.

Interesting game ...

Anyway, we can also turn Amazon into a utility. See: https://stallman.org/amazon.html

No need more merchants, everything shall be a non-counterfeitable Amazon Basics product. Other merchants will have to compete on price while everyone can trust Amazon quality.
