Well seeing as the loss making ocado, which seams to have won over certain press types values itself at £1bn, I say good luck to em.

I've only looked a few things, but, the pricing doesn't seem that great - some of it seems more expensive than what I'd pay at Tesco/ASDA! And for some of the items sold in bulk I looked at, Costco/Makro still have the advantage too....
Early days I suppose. I remember when getting my uni books 12 years ago, Amazon were one of the more expensive and was making huge losses year on year. And today they're very profitable, huge, quite cheap for most things and the cheapest online booksellers I used to use now no longer exist. I suppose Amazon now have the clout to make it work.
Well to be honest I just looked up a cerial - Golden Grahams - 340g and they are £6.97!!!!! Plus £4.99 for postage? LOL
With prices like that I can't see anyone really bothering.
EDIT: Oh and ONE bottle of Lynx is £4.99 and of course you need to add on the £4 odd shipping. Hmmm so really I dont think the super markets have ANYTHING to worry about.

Tesco, Asda, et al. sell books, so it's only fair that Amazon can sell toilet roll (though, as others have pointed out, Amazon are not doing themselves any favours in the pricing department).
