[QUOTE="35years, post: 4212169, member: 60822"] All other competitors were hampered by the enormous cost of building the infrastructure (planes, trucks, buildings). Amazon has shown it is willing to sustain many years of losses in one section of it's empire in order to grow to be the biggest player in the sector. They have the money. Eventually they themselves will be moving the vast majority of what they sell. They will then need to move other company's goods to make their distribution network profitable....Business to Businesses delivery. Until then, they have an advantage that Fed-ex did not enjoy...they sell the product to be shipped. My guess, and only that a guess, is they will move an equal amount of boxes as us by 2030. Then their low labor costs put us under by 2040. [/QUOTE]
