Amazon Seeks Divorce, $750M from Toys R Us

Posted by michael on from the geoffrey-has-a-dark-side dept.

theodp writes "Responding to a Toys R Us lawsuit accusing Amazon of breaching exclusivity provisions of its $50M-a- year tenancy agreement, Amazon has countersued the giant toy retailer, asking the Court to terminate its Toysrus.com partnership and award it damages of more than $750M, arguing that Toysrus.com's failure to effectively choose top toys and baby products and to keep products in stock leaves Amazon with no other choice but to enable more sellers to sell these products."

    Your point? Unfortunately for you, if you look up 'pay' in dictionary.com, and look for the 'past tense and a past participle of pay' you get BOTH 'payed' and 'paid'. So if you were arguing over spelling... your point has been totally lost.

    v. tr. 10. Past tense and past participle paid or payed (pd)

    If you are making some argument over the meaning of 'pay' then you have also lost your audience by not explaining your nitpick.

    We would all be better served by your explanation of your nitpick rather than leaving it fully open for misinterpretation.
