Anyone concerned that rising fuel costs may have an impact on shipping costs for e-tailers?

Eric,

A year ago when I was very bearish on AMZN, I tried to make an argument that home delivery has to cost more than brick and mortar shopping due to inefficiencies of this delivery service. I do know the fuel price increase has no connection to e-commerce at this point in time. However, it is still my opinion that house to house delivery is inefficient.
