There is a big difference between BAMM and AMZN (at least the way analysts perceive it).

AMZN is a pioneer. It is positioning itself not as a retailer on the net, but as a technology company pioneering in Internet Commerce. I agree, at $300 it is 10 times overvalued, but every Internet company is. AMZN has a vision. AMZN is developing technologies that will probably revolutionize E-Commerce. BAMM remains a retailer without a vision of E-Commerce. And it will always remain as a retailer.

Check out AMZN's shop-the-web service. They will move towards becoming a lead link between consumers and suppliers.

That's where AMZN's value is. Anyone can start a retail online shop. But AMZN is interested in something else and we will see the how the dots are linked in the future.

Agree - at some point the Amazon bubble will pop. FMV for them
has to be no greater that 200 bucks a share - even if they have killer
revenue growth....where's the earnings?
I prefer earnings...
