BAMM is up to this point a gem! The key thing is the CEO's description of the site as a business enhancer and expander. They're just a small regional book seller. They've got the infrastructure to expand to the internet with out all the brick and mortar of a Borders or BK. It's not to say that they are a small player, they are large in the SE USA. But they aren't global like BK or Borders who are most threatened by the e-commerce companies. They don't have the high overhead associated with the other two, but they do understand the book business. BAMM has only 46 million in debt and a positive cash flow and profitable each of the last 5 years, at least! Wall Street will love to invest in this stock given they have a strong vision and leader. The CEO proved yesterday that he understands the new retail formula!

From a customer standpoint: fantastic. We've been customers for over 5 yrs - we even called while we were stationed in Japan & ordered by e-mail once we got on-line. Great customer service, good employees, great atmosphere - started adding good coffee shop in one corner of store with books on the tables (at least here) & again at least here, they keep late hours (good cheap date - joke) 'til midnite I think year end. Local store even has a TV running with Mon. nite football or CNBC or whatever is of interest in the periodical section with nice comfy benches. Staffing seems to be kept to a minimum. We agree that the site will do well & the stock should take off & keep flying.
