Facets are the fields with values and counts you see on the left here: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_scat_1292115011_ln?rh=n%3A1292115011%2Ck%3Alcd+monitor&keywords=lcd+monitor&ie=UTF8&qid=1359718274&scn=1292115011&h=5ad599a40cf84af588b7564b59277b44e2dc1f2e
While grouping (I don't have an example) puts each it under its own group according to which field you grouped by. Grouping just "reorganizes" all of your hits under specified groups, while faceting is summarizing information (you can't see the results in each facet, only the summary count or other aggregate).
