The city sued Amazon in May alleging its
requirements barred third-party sellers from selling elsewhere for less than on
Amazon. Amazon's prices include fees, which are up to 40 percent of the total
price.
The new complaint includes allegations that
Amazon has agreements with wholesalers that guarantee it a minimum profit. As a
result, the complaint alleges, if Amazon lowers a price to compete with another
online seller, the wholesaler must pay Amazon the difference between the price
it sells at and the agreed minimum. These payments are a disincentive for
wholesalers to lower prices to compete, the complaint said.
Amazon, which filed a motion to dismiss the
lawsuit on Friday, said that the Washington, DC, lawsuit had it wrong.
"Sellers set their own prices for the
products they offer in our store," it said in a statement. "Amazon
takes pride in the fact that we offer low prices across the broadest selection,
and like any store we reserve the right not to highlight offers to customers
that are not priced competitively." - Reuters
