There are 3rd party tools you can use to see if Amazon have sold on a listing previously which may indicate if they are only temporarily out of stock.
Other than that, there isn't really much advice to offer as Amazon also make money from selling things.

This is an inherent risk in trading on Amazon.
It is always possible that Amazon or another seller will offer the same product at a lower price than you.
Amazon often list on listings and often manage to undercut the price of other sellers. This is largely because their overheads are lower as they don't have to pay the same fees as we do.
What you will find is that Amazon may go out of stock at some point at which point the buy box will swing back to you. However this may take a number of weeks to happen.
The only way for this not to happen is to have your own brand so no one else can join the listings.

Sadly had the same experience with them, killed the product price and still remain selling the product at lower price than i would ever be able to compete with.
