It's hilarious that people think goods delivery is going to be a money maker. It's ruthlessly competitive.

- IGotThroughIt 7y agoTrue but not everyone does it well. Almost everyone sucks at it - long waits, poor selection in terms of product range and sometimes even apps that simply don't work as intended. It's going to take a large player with a wide network to get it done well. There are so many players in the space who've closed shop and will continue to do so. Only a few (2 or 3) will stay put and actually get the job done.
- buboard 7y agoFood delivery is ubiquitous in my country (its cheaper than cooking for me, if you account time wasted). it is free, at 0 extra cost compared to the in-store menu (actually in store costs more) - there's just a minimum cost the order must have. I dont think the ubereats model is scalable in america.
