Love Amazon for convenience and quality of service. I live in BFO, an area where it's an hour to the nearest Wally World, McNasties and such, so mail order is a godsend.
Amazon serves as a great means for small retailers to market their products online, but it's definitely going to have an impact on the way everyone does business locally all the way up to globally. Maybe this will be a good thing or maybe a really bad one. Time will tell.
