Rome if you want to, Rome around the world

the actual value of Prime is roughly $1000

value is different than cost. At market shipping rates, Amazon could be charging their customers more, say $1000, for Prime. But that doesn’t mean it costs Amazon that much to operate it. So your statement means they are leaving money on the table, but they still very well may be making a profit off Prime. Just not as much as they could.
