>>Amazon prefers to never give out information<<

And worse yet, what they do give out tends to be irrelevant and misleading. Classic example - signed up 10,000,000th customer!!

Sounds great, except how many of those customers are actives, how many are duplicates and how many are people who simply bid in an auction. I saw that AMZN does not differentiate customers from auction participants. What a joke!!

When you find yourself railing against a stock, it's time to buy. Trust me on that... :-))

RE: So "highly mechanized" can mean we need more people to run it. That way we can lose more money.
