Len:

This point of Walmart's huge buying power should be repeated again and again... When they buy a product they can buy 10's of thousands of a single item... They get big quantity discounts as well as excellent terms on their orders... Before they have even cut a check to pay for the order they have had 30 to 60 days in which they are selling the product in their stores, and now on line... This is a tremendous advantage for cash flow and inventory turnover that competitors will find hard to compete with...
