Amazon has to mark up products over wholesale to cover the cost of things like... the customer support that they actually provide. In the Play store Google can sell the Nexus at wholesale to make it look cheaper.

The question is, if Google sold the Nexus (say, $329 from $299) with a slight markup to raise their support, would you still buy it?
