>9066> The Company has no long-term contracts or arrangements with any of its vendors that guarantee the availability of merchandise, the continuation of particular payment terms or the extension of credit limits.<< Gotta love that part of Amazon's SEC filings.. I think it will come back to haunt them. :) "no long-term contracts"

t is somewhat confusing because he is also listed as selling over 1 million shares. However, if you read the footnotes to the sales, those are just shares held by KPCB clients in his name. KPCB cannot prevent their clients from taking profits in this controversial company. The actual purchase has no footnote. There are no sales soley in Doerr's name. Tom, The Yahoo information is often inaccurate. I reall sometime back them stating Baker and Taylor owning 10% of AMZN. I found that to be incorrect. I will find a more reliable source and try to post this weekend. I am not stating the purchase was not made but only that it is possibly inaccurate. Glenn
