Just a 30 second search on Amazon can show that Art's Game Store is able to sell Kursk: South Flank, Sword of Israel, Russo-Japanese War, and Western Desert Force for a price equal to or lower than the price listed on the Avalanche Press website. And Art's Game Store includes free shipping.
I can't access eBay from work but I know is also an e-tailer that carries some of the newer titles that has a store front on eBay.
So there is room for Avalanche Press to sell to e-tailers.
I believe this will become more common when Avalanche Press is in a better financial position. Slightly bigger runs (the extra copies for the e-tailers), and a staff member that can assemble the games, manage relationships with e-tailers and customers, and can prepare advertisement for printed media. I am optimistic and I think it will happen (but not as soon as I predicted in the thread below).
Anyway, you may want to check the PG Product Glut thread to see what me and others have written about another similar perceived issue.
Daniel,
This is an interesting sign. One question though what is the pricing on the games sold by these online distributors?
