This is a small sampling of ideas from our resident Mush Mouth known as the "Big Fat Little Guy"
Lets get a couple of DuH!s out of the way.
Duh! # 1. Amazon started as a media Company. they were the one with the first with most. Branding, Books = Amazon
Duh! # 2. With the customer and the brand in mind Amazon wanted to sell any and every book available . That included used ,rare , and out of print as well as the new books which they actually owned or purchased .Because of price limits they decided the really rare was not worth the risk I think $2500. is the price limit unless it has changed.
When Amazon first started they bought books from internet dealers through sites as Interloc now Alibris, Biliofind which they bought when buying a another site and Advance Book Exchange renamed Abe Books; which they have now bought and are operating as an stand alone company for now. Which is what they did with Biliofind, finally closing it down though using it as a gateway for Amazon.comAmazon
Ok the that Last Duh! and a half got a bit long winded
"but I have so much to share :-)" he said in such a concerned caring voice. Check this fromBookthink.com
