Moth Cake Mystery

When any of you don't have enough to do, try to buy Enoz moth cake refills from somebody other than Amazon.

There was an article in Business Week a while back about Amazon.  One of the story points was that Amazon was buying the dominant on-line nappy seller. Buying that competitor, they eliminated it as a market irritant and gained for themselves – Amazon – immense pricing power. 

It appears they have also achieved that dominance in moth cakes. 

There is one Japanese on-line grocery I can find that sells the cakes at half of Amazon's price. 

But they require more information and commitment than I am interested in rendering. 

Other than that, all roads lead to Amazon. 

And once there the price is twice. 

Interesting.
