A Stretch on Amazon Prime

Pam and I love Amazon Prime. Pay $79 a year, and get unlimited two-day shipping on most items. We’ve ordered scores of items through Amazon Prime, from tiny flash drives to much larger items. But nothing as big as the Commander Series 54 gun safe.

I read that Cannon Safe sells a bunch of these six-foot-tall, 1500-pound safes through Amazon. Cannon charges $700 to ship the safe, but when people buy it through Amazon, shipping is free. You wonder what kind of a business model makes that profitable for Amazon.
