As for what purpose Amazon has attained to start this 20% discount campaign for what purpose,News reportAccording to the following idea is based on.

This time discount is a limited time campaign. Therefore, we plan to restore the price after the campaign ends. However, Amazon does not end these campaigns only once. We intend to begin "discount sales" while continuously speaking to other publishing companies.

However, Amazon's aim is not to do a limited-time campaign, but to be able to sell it permanently at a free price. "If you have the flexibility of the price you can also reduce the return rate, I want to make it" ordinary "to sell" at free price "as soon as possible" (Mr. Kemo).

Murai Vice President explained, "Some customers do not buy second hand books but only purchase new items, and 20% discount will echo those people," but this alone will not sell much.
