Glenn most customers probabaly aren't even aware of that

maybe an issue, but universal to web retailers

Customers could not care less about these

<< mis pricing on-line >>
how many times would one customer experience that? Happens in brick stores too.

<<poor customer service, etc. >>
this is a serious issue I agree, but one that can be remedied if they care to.

Glenn, I am as bearish as anyone re their op losses, finances, etc., but I believe that the brand name is a powerhouse. I am intrigued with what I see as such a major paradox between their inability to earn a proift and the value of the brand name. I cannot wait to see how the paradox gets resolved in the next couple of years (max).
