Welcome to the third of my posts containing some somewhat random observations that I have observed while working for and at Amazon. Once again, I will not be giving out much company-specific information, and I am still not yet the general manager.
2. HP still makes (or at least sells) calculators.
3. Actual text on a real product's box: "New type imitate the true style."
4. Is there much of a market for barn owl pellets?
5. What happens to all of those unsold 2019 items (calendars, planners, graduation gifts, etc.)?

I saw a very interesting post on YouTube the other day. This couple was bidding on, and buying a filled pallet boxes from Amazon, sight unseen. Then they made a production of unpacking it, determining if each item had what value, and if they would sell it on eBay, or at a swap meet.
So you are getting the good stuff from pallet boxes, they are getting the returns and bad stuff in pallet boxes.
Let me know if any of that Radio Shack stuff is turning up from my old Radio Shack Computer Center that I owned in Alaska, circa 1986. We got rid of lots of stuff when we closed it down. :-)
