Glenn what is that- is it a amzn perk ?

Try calculating this:

- The cost of building and staffing those warehouses htat still are not complete.

- The cost of posessing inventory, which I guess is relativley new to amzn. New car dealers lease their inventory- is that what amzn does or is the cost thrown back at the publishers and manufacturers?

- The cost of 25% returns, which is typical of catalog sales, and is the expected level for online retailers.
