<p class="MsoNormal">Has anyone set up a Business Account with Amazon? We have an individual account with Amazon, but have been wondering if there are any advantages to having a business account. If anyone has such an account, would you please respond to
me directly? It is my understanding that once you have a business account, you can establish accounts for each person ordering. Do any of you use it to allow librarians to place orders directly on separate accounts under a business account?
