Customer service, indeed. I use Amazon.com on a regular basis, for their MP3 downloads, and just started using 'em for MTB accessories (gloves, saddlebag, bug repellent, etc)
One thing that differentiates Amazon.com from walmart, though: Amazon.com supports individual retailers, in a serious -- and, I suppose, fun looking -- way

"Electrons remain, doing everything they do best (switching), while photons do what they do best (traveling very, very fast)." - brilliant, no?

As far as advice on economy goes, I'm still reading what PT Barnum has to say about it: http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/8581 PS Reportedly, PT Barnum did not say "There's a sucker born every minute", cf http://sniggle.net/barnum.php
I guess I can only take one source of advice about it, at a time, heheh. I will say, though, that I think it's great if the subject of economy (in a transitive sense) is still coming up in contemporary discourse
