B, shorting a stock never brings it down. In fact, when it bottoms, you'll be the person longs need to bring the price back up. I don't know when the bottom will come in this sotck, but it has made me more money long than anything I ever had short. Keep an eye on the technicals. The bottom is a lot closer than the top, IMO

As a short, I love buying books from Amazon. I get a great deal on price, and I am helping to bring down a company which I am short. You can't ask for a better deal. Beared, Your purchase is typically close to a wash since fulfillment is slightly higher than gross margins. I am not sure if you buy best sellers but those will surely be a loss. It is fortunate one does not need service down the road with a book, CD or Video. Where would one turn in a few years? Glenn
