Giant and Growing Company That Most of Us Miss

[Gymjunkie]

There is a huge company that people underestimate and doesn't grasp the power of it... it can say 'Move over' to Google and Apple in the future and seriously control the ecommerce world... and it is Amazon. I think this company will grow amazingly and I think I will buy their stock when I can..

Here is a great post and slide-show about the size of Amazon (controls 1/3 of Ecommerce!!!!) and how they did it:

I remember it was included in a list of sites predicted to fail in the late late 90's, how wrong they were! Great company by the way, definitely a long term stock to hold on to.

Well they were kinda right, Amazon had 3 BILLION dollars in losses one year.. I mean wow... but they survived and now are in the position to dominate!

I shop at Amazon all the time, they have a great selection, great prices, and treat their customers right.

I think they are going to eventually eat Walmarts lunch. Amazon is going to do for large brick and mortar retail what Netflix did to Blockbuster.

I absolutely love Amazon. I remember when their stock was around $90/ share back in August; I knew it was a steal at the time and I was going to buy some but never did; now it's around $200!

I absolutely love their customer service - it's one of the best I've ever experienced from any business; web or B&M. I also love their reviews system... They're just a great company!

I love Amazon too. I've only had one reason to contact their customer service people and that was about 10 years ago. They fixed the problem immediately and it's been smooth sailing ever since. They run a great company that's for sure.

A friend at Best Buy HQ says Amazon is their toughest competitor.
