I order a LOT more through Amazon because of Prime than I would otherwise. Knowing my buy-to-hold timeframe is only a couple of days and Amazon's price will be significantly better than other places means Amazon usually gets my first look on almost everything.

I have no idea if I am a profitable customer or not, though. My guess is that the profitable customers with Prime purchase very little or a lot. I don't think I fall in either of those categories (though I might before Christmas is over :).
