Don't bother to look- why do you think there is a sky high premium on puts? Better to just bite the bullet and pay the premium on the puts.. The october ones should be coming into fashion really soon.
Especially the OCT60puts.. YZNVL is the symbol. ;)

Can anyone borrow me 1000 shares AMZN to short? 500 shares are ok too. I couldn't find any. :-)

Yes, there was none at Ameritrade and NDB. Had to go to Fidelity to grab some.

Hugh, If you are willing to short the stock, just buy deep in the money puts since they basically have no premium. Believe me, I own a few, although I didn't think it would get this bad so quick. -g-
