Great question.



In 1995, on April 3, I placed an order for a science book titled Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies.












Actually:
I bought a subscription to Motortrend magazine in 2008.

Apparently it was 2011 and I bought a Boston Celtics snuggie type thing. Which is interesting because I don't recall ever having this in my home, nor do I give two shits about the Celtics.

Second purchase was a Labrynth DVD, third was the HP TouchPad case (I'm sure the longtime OT posters remember the TouchPad crazy sale) and fourth was a Dumb and Dumber DVD.

That completes my 2011 purchases.

Now I probably purchase that many items per week.

I would have said “a book” without looking, because that’s what Amazon started selling, but I checked my history and it was CDs. 1999

I used a different email earlier in the 90s, so I might have had earlier purchases.

Books. It was Amazon's first and only product when they started.

A book. A seasonal worker of ours was one of Amazons original employees in Seattle.

It was simply an online book store.
