I expect Amazon got a lot of people to sign up for a free trial of Prime, and some percentage of those people will decide to pay the yearly fee.

Since Amazon hyped this sale so much, I can understand a bit of the disappointment, but, seriously, Amazon's being faulted for having a sale??? That seems crazy to me.
Amazon Was Simply Clearing Old Junk Out Of Its Warehouses

Brass Knuckles, Granny Panties, 55 Gallon Drums Of Lube. Anyone who paid $99 to join Prime for this sale has to be massively underwhelmed.
