I believe the answer is:

amazement

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'incredulity' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'online retailer not working to fix missing copyright' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'online' could be 'e' (abbreviation for electronic, e.g. in ecommerce) and 'e' is found in the answer.
'not' could be 'nt' (synonyms) and 'nt' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
