Here's some research. Amazon, in the 3rd quarter lost 25 mil on revenue of 153 mil.
Add those together and you get the total expense of r the quarter of 178 mil. They spent
37 mil on marketing so that leaves 141 mil to spend on just running the business. Servers,
software, engineers, sales people, warehouse, phones, insurance and oh yeah books.


Junior,

Are you certain the expense of fulfillment is not in the $37 million of marketing?
