Amazon.com to buy stake in online gift registry PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept 23 (Reuters) - The online gift registry Della and James Thursday will announce an affiliation with Amazon.com <AMZN.O>, which is buying a 20 percent stake in the company and forming a strategic relationship to offer gift registry services to its customers. Della and James, which was launched as an online bridal registry over the summer, is also relaunching itself as an all-occasion gift registry where anyone will be able to post gift "wish lists." Della and James Chief Executive Rebecca Patton said the company had not yet worked out all the details of its all-occasion registry, but said the company saw significant potential in setting up a site where expectant mothers, children and other individuals could list their gift preferences. "We believe this is going to be huge," she said. "How wonderful it will be to be able to post our wish lists on the Internet." Della and James' affiliation with Amazon is part of a $45 million financing package from four of its retail partners, including Neiman Marcus, Williams Sonoma and Crate and Barrel. The company said most of the new funding came from Amazon, although it did not specify the dollar amount of its investment. 846-5400)) REUTERS Rtr 00:01 09-23-99
