Hey, did you hear Amazon may be opening several brick-and-mortar bookstores? Someone said it, but whether it’s true is another thing.
Is the free two-day shipping available to Amazon Prime members hurting the company? When customers buy something small, like a jar of Nutella, and choose their free two-day shipping option as Prime members can, it costs the company a good bit. Amazon is working on multiple schemes for getting their products in your hands quickly, but their current schemes are soaking them. Perhaps if they can only drown all of their competition, they’ll start making money.
Amazon may become too successful to survive.
The first amazon brick-and-mortar has already opened:

It’s just down the road from where I work, but I haven’t been curious enough yet to make the trek.
Yes, I read about that store. They didn’t say if they rumored new stores will follow the format of that one.
