These Internet stocks are so weird that their volatility makes it hard to get quotes on options through the CBOE quote system. I mean, I put together the symbol .ZQNSJ, which I thought was a July put on AMZN at 350, and it gives me a price of something like 8 or 9. So it must be for an option at 250. The price has outrun the normal strike parameters.

or do i have this right?

Actually maybe a 250 July put at 8.5 on AMZN might not be so bad. I just hit it by accident.

So what does anyone think about this? I realize it's way out of the money.

I admit to floundering in total ignorance, so anyone who wants to deflounder me is welcome to.
