Dwight, I've been around for some time. If you decide to mess with Amazon.com put it in your speculation account, up or down. This is not a stock to put your life savings in. It's no Wal-Mart. You should trust me on that.

In the end, Amazon has to be more than retailer peddling commodity products with razor thin margins. The "convenience" plug doesn't go very far towards building a brand that people want to buy. Do people here consider toys and electronics to be commodities? I never did. Books are commodities I thought. If toys and electronics are commodities can someone outline what is not a commodity in retail to me please, thanks
