If Amazon, or WalMart, or Waterstone's decides to sell a book at a loss to their bottom line in hopes that the customer will buy other things, don't they still have to pay the publisher (through the distributor) the regular price of the book? I've heard enough about the problem to believe that it is, indeed, a problem, but just like the phases of the moon, I still don't quite understand how it works.
