Tom:

I must say I am impressed with what I have seen on Amazon.

I do wonder how they got so many items listed from the get-go (although it is still quite small in comparison to eBay. Example, two pieces of Roseville pottery listed on Amazon versus more than 1300 for eBay.)

I disagree with you on the revenue growth eBay will show this quarter, but am more concerned for next quarter if Amazon is able to make a real run at eBay.

Amazon is not competing on price. They are charging essentially the same as eBay for just about every kind of listing.

We shall see. It will definitely be interesting.

Regards,

Doug
