One item I got myself for Christmas was the Complete Calvin & Hobbes from Amazon. When I got it, it showed signs of water damage. I of course asked for a replacement.

Amazon shipped the replacement by courier (to make sure I got it by Christmas). I would have been fine with UPS Ground. The shipping cost was probably higher than their margin on the $68 transaction.

Now, if they they are willing to lose money to keep a customer happy on a $70 sale, don't you think they would do the same for a $400 transaction (if they could)?
