sad as it is, glenn, you may be wrong. remember, you could buy electronics at best buy cheaper than amzn was buying them wholesale per that one article. They may be retail amateurs. I never did understand their reasoning for going through the gray and black market for electronic goods. I assume from so many articles this really occurred. A retailer can still do well in a product category by focusing on those brands for which they have the franchise. This entire concept confuses me. these guys are amateurs. buy 2 items and get free shipping with no minimum is plain old STUPID! I would love to know who thought that idea up. Using the word "stupid," is being kind.
