RCA actually went out of business, because they sold their computer's for cost, but their customer service was great. That is surely a recipe for disaster. The question is if Amazon is selling each book at a loss, or selling books is profitable but they are spending in one time items (such as building warehouses) and then be profitable. Until recently I thought it was mostly one time items. However, the latest quarter figures, where AMZN reported a fat X-mas sales bonus and still their earnings situation did not improve has introduced doubts in my mind.
