Sorry, you do not live IN a planet, just as how you do not live IN an island.
It's a pet peeve of mine. Like "irregardless" and "For God sakes".
you're "in" the atmosphere of the planet. You're not on it.
Dude,
#1 - MOST of the CRAP amazon sells is MADE IN CHINA.
#2 - The SAME Chinese amazon has brought over in the last 8 years are getting ready to POUNCE with their OWN websites ready to go....HUNDREDS of sites fully populated just waiting for an "amazon mis-step" or break-up.
#3 - there is NOTHING special about this crap business - they got LUCKY with the introduction of the CELL PHONE plus their "marketplace" in the last decade where MILLIONS of sheep decided it was ok to be fleeced using their cell phone to buy chinese crap from chinese sellers on amazon which FATTENED margins last few years.
Once this is all factored in and the "story" ends...what you think an ELECTRIC VAN is going to save their ass??
Heck, DHL just said the hell with electric crap...we're losing millions developing this shit.
These are ALL "feel good" stories - kool-aid for the dumb american public.
In fact amazon has NO tech...it's all 2nd hand!
They just COPY other people's stuff....
"drones" - copied
servers - copied
online distributor - copied
movies - copied
"fire" tablets - copied/outsourced
even the bezos "blue origin" shit is copied
About time people wake up and realize it's NOTHING MORE than a site that persisted and got lucky thanks to a combination of factors that were DIVINE for them.
stay salty:
