It's not sleazy, it's smart business. Amazon doesn't sell guns either, and they technically could probably do so if they setup the proper infrastructure and background checks and whatever else to do so.
Just because they are Wal-Mart of the online world doesn't mean they must sell everything everyone wants.
The devices they don't sell are in a heavily contested field, no wonder they don't carry them, that's smart business. It's a bit silly to get self-righteous about it otherwise.
- DamnYuppie 11y agoThey wouldn't have to do the back ground checks. The Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) they ship it to would take care of doing that. In case people are unaware you can't sell a firearm to someone outside your own state without transferring it through an FFL. They simply don't do it because they bow to liberal suck ups, down-vote away!
- DiabloD3 11y agoOkay.
- daveFNbuck 11y agoThey do sell streaming devices, though. They just don't sell the ones made by their competitors. Using their position as #1 online retailer to bolster their position as a streaming service is more than just smart business. It's life if Microsoft had used its market position with Windows to push IE.
