Amazon Longs, meet your Killer. "Buy.com is growing 50% faster than Amazon." This is where I buy my Books for a lot less then AMZN. Buy.com will go public soon for ~4 billion if the I-nut's don't crash. With that cash they can lose money longer than AMZN without worrying about bond payments. Can someone tell me why AMZN will do better than Buy.com? If Bezos is stressing service and Scott is stressing price I believe AMZN will be the Nordstrom's of the internet while Buy.com will become the Wallmart of the internet. Last I checked Wallmart had a higher cap than Nordstrom. Check it out in the latest Fortune: pathfinder.com If you look at Scott's business plan you will see why Amazon can never beat Buy.com's prices. There is another difference between Wallmart and Nordstrom besides service, that is the quality of the merchandise. Amazon has no quality advantage. No wonder Bezos refuses to discuss when he will make a profit, he has no clue when or if he can make a profit.
