Amazon Austria?

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

I was having a poke around the Amazon sites - ordered another Buddy Johnson Classics from Amazon Germany then, as I was heading for France, happened to see, in the list of other sites at the bottom of the page, that there was an Austrian site. So I followed the link but it looks as if it's Amazon.de - that's the address in the adress line.

I guess there's some point, but I can't see it. What's the score with this?

From the amazon.at website:

Die Portalseite für Österreich (http://www.amazon.at) weist auf spezielle Themenschwerpunkte, Aktionen und Angebote für unsere österreichischen Kunden hin. Dabei ist Amazon.at keine eigenständige Firma, sondern besteht aus lokalisierten Webseiten für Österreich.

"The site for Austria points to special themes, agendas and offers for our Austrian customers. Amazon.at is not an independent enterprise, but consists of regionalized web pages for Austria."
