Amazon has a tendency to cap prices and sell stuff for a loss just to get market share. They also have a highly automated sales process (benefit of scale). So they tend to do stuff cheaper.
(Not saying that perhaps Shrapnel should take a look at their costs and in that way make the games cheaper (If they can reduce their constant costs of each sale by 10% a 10% reduction of price would increase the sales numbers) but there are two sides to the story).
