Costco (COST) has created a bulwark against Amazon (AMZN) by keeping a lid on costs and using membership fees to offer better prices than competitors.
"Costco wants to be the last to have to raise prices and the first to lower them," said Mark Cohen, the director of retail studies at Columbia Business School.
Costco has a sizable customer overlap with Amazon, especially among wealthier shoppers. It's a looming danger for Costco if those shoppers decide they don't want to pay for both.
But the company has defended against its Washington State neighbor through low prices, offering fresh food and gas, and creating a treasure hunt buying experience that can't be copied online.
"Shoppers will use Amazon to replace physical shopping experiences that are chores or that they don't enjoy," said Kantar Retail senior analyst Timothy Campbell. "Even as many shoppers consolidate their trips into fewer retailers or go online, Costco isn't one retailer they consider cutting from their list."
