Personally, I'm glad that Amazon.com didn't honor these orders.  While you
guys were busy trying to take advantage of a system error, did you ever stop
to consider how much money it would actually cost them to send you the stuff
if they ended up having to honor the orders?  Amazon.com has been in the Red
for years now, and it's only because a few companies have enough faith to
give them backing that they are able to continue operating.  If they ended
up having to honor the orders, they very well could have gone out of
business.  And you would've had yourselves to thank in part for that.  I'm
not trying to judge or sound rude, but it's something I'd think about.
