I am planning on waiting until early spring when it becomes clear that Bert capured the European market amd AMZN is losing market share here.

You sound so certain here. FWIW, a friend of mine recently moved back to Germany [he placed a few sizable orders at Amazon.com while he lived here]. I asked him if he thought Germans would in general order from Bertelsmann rather than Amazon, and his response was, "Well, it depends on how quickly Bertelsmann gets their site up and running smoothly. Amazon will probably keep their customers once they have them."

Again, that's FWI. I suppose he could be biased after ordering from Amazon.com, and after living in the U.S. for two years.
