It looks like the actual figure will be 31.5 million by the end of Dec 21st... and about 39-45 million items for the quarter.

At $25 per item revenue is in the range $975-1125 million. At $20 per item is in the range of $780-900 million....



I can't argue with these number due to the fact they are accurate. I do believe we are going to see far greater losses that projected. I suspect the free shipping for orders over $100 for the entire season had to cost $50 million plus. It is not difficult to place an order for a few items to reach that $100 mark.

I doubt Amazon will ever warn. It is not their style to let their stock holders know what is going on.

I sure called that one wrong. It's looking like 40 million items and $1 billion in revenue.

I was disappointed with the $124 million from the toys site. The quarter will have to ride on Electronics.
