Hachette seems to think do. (Which, again, suggests Hachette is the one delaying deliveries in retaliation for Amazon cutting back on bulk orders.)

Amazon knows their customers, though. While I don't know how many of their customers actively use their wishlist feature, it seems to be fairly popular. They also know know the search and purchase patterns of their customers so they know what percentage of buyers pop in to buy a specific title and only that title.

Time (and the next quarterly financials) will tell who ends up hurting more.
