Actually, it was Ingram that B&N wanted >Is it any wonder that the feds blocked the sale of B&T to Barnes and Noble

Everyone knows this. Amazon basically paid for their entire inventory by diluting their common stock. And the fools STILL couldn't turn a profit, when their main product was provided to them FREE OF CHARGE! KIS, I was the one that questioned the shares of Amazon stock that B & T were dumping on the market. I also discovered that those shares were given to B & T for their book database. B & T made a lot of money on those shares due to the appreciation and splits of Amazon stock. The inventory for Amazon was not paid for with stock. Glenn
