Does anyone have a feel for how much Drugstore.com will contribute to Amazon's first quarter revenues ? Will Amazon break out the Drugstore.com figures ? ps Drugstore.com will end its promotional shipping charge of $ 1.00 versus its standard charge of $ 4.95 effective April 30. This is on non prescription items. By eating the shipping charges I figure that Drugstore.com lost money on every non prescription order under $ 20 during the month of April.

Glenn, more competition for Drugstore? One of the richest families in Seattle is the Pigott family. They own Paccar a publicly multi-$billion company. Like in Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks and boy do they make $money. Actually I would recommend their stock to anyone. Anyway, the family also owns Soma Corp, and they will eat drugstore's lunch. That's just my humble opinion. Why? These guys have got logistics and distribution down to a science. All they need to do is sex up their web-site.
