[QUOTE="purplesky, post: 1220473, member: 23628"] Didn't the large grocery store chains already try the grocery delivery service years ago? It failed big time because of no demand. Except for wealthy people who don't care about costs. Amazon will need large volume sales to be profitable and it doesn't seem like enough Americans have the extra cash to throw at the service fees and shipping that Amazon will need to charge to deliver groceries and make a profit? Warehousing fresh food will be very expensive for Amazon. Anotherwards if this delivery service didnt work for actual grocery chains why would Amazon be successful? The grocery chains can do it cheaper? They already have the product available right in your neighborhood? Amazon is now lobbying hard for the internet sales tax because they do plan on having a warehouse in every city in America. Its Ironic they don't want other internet sellers to have the no sales tax advantage they currently enjoy.:wink2: I love Amazon and I am a prime member using the video service and I order alot of stuff. But Amazon will and can be duplicated and GOOGLE is a company that has the cash and has talked about doing a same day delivery service for stores like target. Maybe in the near future Googles self driving cars will show up in your driveway and you will just unload your online delivery and then wave at the google camera and say thank you. [/QUOTE]
