[QUOTE="JL 0513, post: 1248023, member: 50088"] In the world of business, Amazon is a strange animal. Growing really quickly, huge market value, high stock price, and yet when it comes to profit, they are at a loss. Think about something. Why are they so successful? Because they are able to undercut almost everyone else's prices and they take a hit on shipping costs as well. All in the name of growth. Well, they can't do this forever. So what happens when they eventually need to start making real money? Their prices will have to be raised to more realistic market prices and charge more for shipping. Thus stalling further growth, or greatly slowing it down. All this growth is based on unsustainable business practices. [/QUOTE]
