Best Buy is closing stores because they have a lot of redundant real estate (the press release mentioned having Best Buy and FutureShop locations practically next door to each other). Target closed stores because they couldn't supply them adequately and shoppers had no reason to go there, so they were losing millions of dollars. That's a very different scenario.

As for Amazon, a) they're losing tons of money, so Wall Street is no longer as willing to overlook their faults as they were in the past, and b) I think people are reaching the limits of when and how online shopping is useful. The reason people purchase online is when it's not available in a store, or it's cheaper than buying it in the store. But now most retailers offer price-matching, so that takes away a lot of incentive. If you have a choice between seeing the item in person and buying it immediately, vs. waiting a few days and hoping UPS doesn't drop-kick it all the way to your doorstep, then you might not be willing to wait.

Amazon has an advantage in that they sell everything (you can buy fucking uranium on Amazon, for chrissake) and they have a robust drop-shipping and third-party function. Target and Best Buy aren't selling mattresses, bedroom sets or power tools (or uranium), that's not their niche. And that's fine, retailers don't have to be everything to everyone. But at the same time, for the items which Amazon does have competition from brick-and-mortar retailers, the incentive to pick one retailer over another (which is to say, price) is dwindling.

Keep in mind that a lot of the ongoing maintenance of brick-and-mortar stores is to keep an eye on traffic flow and purchasing patterns. If a store doesn't get enough business to justify its presence, why keep it open? The shift in retail for chains that also have a significant online presence is to keep the profitable stuff on the floor, to carry a decent if incomplete variety of those items, and to move most of the loss leaders to the online channel. That's why, when you walk into a store today, you'll see a ton of tablets, phones, cameras, TVs, computers and appliances, and accessories for all of the above, but you see only a comparatively small selection of music, movies and videogames. It's silly to dedicate 3/4 of the sales floor to music and movies when they actually lose money. But websites are cheap as hell, so it's a lot easier and more sensible to maintain a complete media catalog online and ship on demand, than it is to buy a bunch of inventory and hope it sells (especially when we know people aren't buying hard copies anymore, because this is 2015 and people stream now). It makes more sense to keep the most popular electronics and appliances on the floor, and then offer an expanded selection online for people who might want a special color or model, and are willing to wait a few days. Inventory and real estate are expensive, and you want to make sure that you're dedicating your square footage for the items that give you the best return.

You sir, have inspired me to remember when I was first inspired: Steve Jobs' Coal! Make sure you take a look at the customer's images to see it all, and thanks for helping me end my Friday work-day =)
edit: sorry for tinypic, my work firewall won't allow me on Imgur

u/bitterVeg · 1 pointr/creepy

Oh I will!!

Usually I just search for what I'm looking for specifically, like I'm into sea horses right now, and gather lists from that. I'm not into wet yet, even though I so so want to be. Once we have a bigger place and more money, I'll get my creepy room, just not yet. But currently I don't even have room for a creepy cabinet haha

But if you want real biological acrylic samples I highly suggest

http://shop.omegascientific.com.au/index.php?route=product/category&path=76

I'm in the US and it's worth the hassle and extra shipping.

BUT if you're just getting started, honestly Amazon and etsy. Both have small and quality stuff.

Ex: C & A Scientific - Premiere 51010 Real Bat Skeleton https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XXER69S/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fXc3xb0D34WGF

If you want to make this yourself without spending a fortune on real tanks, cases, etc., you could probably fake it easily enough.

For your tank, get a couple acrylic display dome cloches and spray them with metallic paint. If the strapping doesn't have to match the item in the photo exactly, use a third strap to cover the seams where you glue-weld them end to end. https://www.amazon.com/Acrylic-Display-Cloche-Collectables-Specimens/dp/B07DN3WZSS

For the power source, seems like you could use a tea tin or something similar: https://www.harney.com/products/black-empty-tea-tin-8-oz

Flex conduit is easy to find. Maybe spray painted or heat-shrink the surface: https://www.homedepot.com/p/AFC-Cable-Systems-1-1-2-x-25-ft-Flexible-Steel-Conduit-5506-22-00/202262403?MERCH=REC-_-PIPHorizontal2_rr-_-206741568-_-202262403-_-N

The hardware components look a little harder to come by for me. Maybe others will be more help. Seems like you could cobble some stuff together (hinges and gate springs, etc) that look somewhat similar.

u/TheDragonLake · 1 pointr/vultureculture

What did you end up doing? Long story short I have a hawk's leg that I didnt skin. All the skin and ligaments hold it together and is actually pretty cool. Reminds me of the moa paw they found a while back. Left it in the sun to dry & bleach the exposed bone.

Having a whole lizard like that whould be cool if put into a block of acrylic like this bat

u/ContentCricket · 3 pointsr/rockhounds

Well, you can't get plutonium. But you can buy uranium here and here

You can also buy one of the plutonium cell props from the movie here

God damn I love Amazon...

u/-KILR0Y- · 2 pointsr/intj

This was the best $15 I ever spent since my pc hooked up to my tv, using it right now.

For out of the ordinary, there's this?

u/8bitesq · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

What if I do nothing? Isn't that still doing something?

Also: Did you know you can get uranium on Amazon? True story.

u/yourguidefortheday · 2 pointsr/creepy

You can buy them on Amazon.

Edit 2: so apparently the femurs are out of stock but I found this humerus: and you can buy it!

Edit: changed a greeting to an action.

u/KeepInKitchen · 2 pointsr/JUSTNOMIL

Live Ladybugs

Live Hissing Cockroach. Only 3 left, so act now!

Cow eyeballs in bulk!

Liquid Ass. You can always hope it leaks!

u/Monster-Zero · 27 pointsr/pics

Looks good! Get her this :)

u/Not_So_Rare_Earths · 2 pointsr/rockhounds

Dollars to donuts it's manmade, rather than the natural mineral -- Copper Sulfate is widely used in gardening, and can be picked up fairly cheaply at your local hardware store.

u/eat_my_head · 1 pointr/pics

This is the base replica if you would like one.

u/guessitwasntaphase · 1 pointr/CrackheadCraigslist

no but really tho

Edit: I didn’t buy it myself but I work with human remains and was looking for a specific picture, so when I couldn’t find it by searching “juvenile skeletal L5 vertebra” I decided surely there’s some sort of photo database for human remains, so I googled “real human bone pics” and found the amazon listings. Never did find the pic I wanted

Here ya go they already got my money

A large enough supply of Rare earth, high grade uranium ore contains "Uraninite" for Geiger counter / radiation detector test source ~38k CPM! by LifeTech http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CQ9LLR4/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_zELgtb02S8NAJ

buy uranium clearnet here

Found the hand/wrist for $26.55
http://www.amazon.com/Walter-Products-B10210-Skeleton-Articulated/dp/B00JZZFIGM/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1457152668&sr=8-4&keywords=skeleton+hand

The skull and wrist have metal parts that allowed movement. These pieces have been removed prior to painting. I'm assuming he glued the pieces instead.

It's not by the pound but:

u/Organ-grinder · 2 pointsr/glassblowing

I don't see why you couldn't. What could possibly go wrong? Or you could start fresh

u/RunningWarrior · 5 pointsr/Physics

Would this work as a radiation source? What are the dangers of having this and storing it in my apartment? Also, is there anything already around my apartment that emits alpha particles view-able in a homemade cloud chamber?

u/MassesOfTheOpiate · 1 pointr/todayilearned

I'm a bit confused about this, but, if your father died yesterday of lung cancer, I am sorry to hear that.

PS: Those are pictures of Steve Jobs. And, the linking is backwards.

nice

>Ohh, I see we're moving the goal posts again!

There's no moving the goalposts. The definition of WMDs is the same as it has always been: weapons capable of causing mass destruction. Weapons that can kill a lot of people.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/weapon+of+mass+destruction

These weapons cannot kill a lot of people. These weapons are most likely to kill anyone who tries to use them.

>You mean this yellowcake?

Do you actually understand what yellowcake is? Or that there are different isotopes of Uranium? From that article:

>nuclear material that Iraq says was stolen from a university

>...

>Bob Kelly, who was a U.N. nuclear weapons inspector in Iraq in the 1990s, told NBC News that the uranium probably posed more danger as a toxin, like lead, than as radioactive material.

>“Putting it in a dirty bomb is a pretty silly idea,” he said. “If you spread uranium over a large area, it is just going to disappear.”

The article makes it pretty clear that this is the type of uranium you can buy on Amazon, not the kind you can use to make weapons of mass destruction.
