Amazon mainly operates in North America. They are not nearly as big in other continents as they are in the US/Canada.

Dunno about other places but they are huge in India. Almost everybody I know buys from Amazon and has a prime subscription.
Highly doubt you or your acquaintances represent the average Indian.
Even if they don't, Amazon's still huge here. According to my annual income, I am in the top 0.2% of Indians, but there are 13 million Indians who earn more than me. I bet at least they are using Amazon as much as me and my friends.
