>>They have lots of expertise in managing inventory, do they?

Wright joined Wal-Mart in 1985 and served as vice president of distribution from 1990
to his retirement in 1998. During that time he was responsible for more than 30
regional and specialty distribution centers, which accounted for 38 million square feet
of retail distribution space, staffed by more than 32,000 employees.

William,

I never indicated that AMZN could not properly handle inventory logistics. I am stating that the marvel of AMZN was the lack of need to carry inventory. Therefore, they would be paid for their books first thus causing a great cash flow model. Has there been a change to that model? Possibly, it did not work? Just questions on my end.
