Outside of the USA, Amazon stinks at selling everything but their core media goods - DVDs, books, CDs, etc.

I shop for just about anything on Amazon outside of those core products here in Canada, and the prices are mediocre-to-terrible. I think a big component is that merchants get their semi-official status with Amazon (whatever that's called) and then see the opportunity to fill out every possible gap in Amazon's product catalogue with a tidy mark-up.
