Most buyers are simply not savvy enough to pick the most effective hosting. I worked for a small e-commerce operation years ago, they had essentially no technical expertise in-house, but they knew their products and their market. Odds are very low that their VPS arrangement was optimal but how would they know? As long as the site stayed up and the orders came in.
It's quite low, but the real costs are on datacenter space and connectivity anyway, I have no idea what their cost structure looks like.
I would expect any real user to switch into renting servers as soon as small VPSs aren't enough. (But yes, the fact that there is a market of large VPSs tells people don't to that. I don't think I will ever understand this, as I don't understand most people usage of AWS.)
