=== Risks related to inventory and payments === There are several inventory risk factors that may adversely affect the operating results . Some of these are rapid changes in product cycles and pricing, defective merchandise, changes in customer demand and consumer spending patterns, changes in consumer tastes with respect to products offered, spoilage, new product launches. Additionally, certain goods or components require significant lead time and prepayment which may not be returnable. They also carry significant inventory levels of certain products, like consumer electronics, and are sometimes unable to sell products in sufficient quantity or to meet demand during relevant selling seasons. For existing and future payment options they offer to their customers, Amazon currently is subject to, and may become subject to additional, regulations and compliance requirements (including obligations to implement enhanced authentication processes that could result in significant costs and reduce the ease of use of their payments products), as well as fraud. For certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, they pay interchange and other fees, which may increase over time and raise their operating costs and lower profitability.
