Would this actually work?

Surely, they have a mandatory arbitration clause in their customer agreement..?

And which state’s court?

It might. Nothing in courts is ever certain. You could always try it, and at worst you'd be out a court fee (low, for small claims) and wouldn't get your money back because of this clause. Or they could say the clause doesn't matter.

Meanwhile Amazon has to pay someone to attend the hearing.

Note that Amazon would probably ban your account regardless. Most retail businesses don't want customers who might sue them, even if they deserve it.
