[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1253794, member: 7966"] The margins on Amazon shipments are extremely low already so I don't see that happening. I don't see Amazon creating it's own delivery service ... Amazon will most likely use an outside contractor service using personal vehicles. A stripped down FedEx Home business. Regional carriers tend to cherry pick business to business shipments with higher stops per stop and higher stop density. Amazon will find these regional carriers will be a higher price solution for them for B2C. Amazon has been trying to find an alternate solution to UPS/FedEx for years. I predict they will continue to look for many more years for a human based solution. The drone solution is interesting but also a real solution is years out. [/QUOTE]
