AMZN better have the lowest prices or they will get shut out by search engines like Acses, which I think will soon become the only way to buy a book. If you are on the 'net shopping for a book, hey! you already know what you want, you just want the cheapest price. So why go to AMZN when you can go to acses.com and find the guaranteed lowest price. It might be from AMZN or it might NOT! They have 25 bookstores to search from.

My point is that soon the place you will all be bookmarking will be a search engine like Acses and NOT AMZN. So why are you paying 1.5 billion dollars for AMZN? They have NO profits and how will they become profitable when it is becoming obvious that bookselling on the 'net is a commodity item and that the LOWEST price will get the business? AMZN is already losing money now. Think about how much they will lose once they are forced to lower prices to hang on to declining business due to search engines like Acses. Maybe the stock to buy is Acses and not AMZN. Food for thought, no?..............;^)
