Nothing, because Amazon as a reseller has already bought the game from Ubisoft for their sale price. So Ubisoft has received the money for it and now it is just a matter of Amazon's to selling the game to the end user and cover the costs and perhaps earn a profit here.

All the games in a EB Games store for example are been already paid at the publishers. No matter whether the EB Games store ever sold them, the publisher got its sale price for the games in that shop.
