RE: Are they buying or leasing? I don't know if it's a lease or purchase. I assume they will do what makes the best business sense. RE: Also, what is the stratigic significance of Nevada? My recollection from news articles is that it is located in Nevada to decrease shipping times. I also read that it will be/is highly automated. I believe Nevada real estate is fairly cheap and hourly wages are probably lower on average then say, Seattle and other large metropolitan areas. I presume Amzn has investigated these factors and made its purchase/lease decision accordingly. If we assume this to be the case don't you think it might help reduce fulfillment costs?
