They extended the closure until Tuesday.
But I believe the general public doesn't really notice it because orders are still being taken and delivered via, I suppose, distribution centers outside France.
Friend ordered multiple things last Saturday (supposed to be closed) and he received some packages the next Thursday and today too (Saturday).
- curiousgal 6y agoYup, everything is normal, some prices are even cheaper than normal since they're being filled by centers in the Netherlands/UK. All of my orders arrived within 3 days even though the estimates were longer.
- downerending 6y agoIt seems rather odd that the order would not apply to things delivered from outside the country. Is this a general way to avoid regulations? (i.e., France only receives from Netherlands, and Netherlands only receives from France)
- touktouk 6y agoHow is that odd? The issue was the safety of its French employees, and therefore the order from the French court relates to the Amazon facilities in France.
- downerending 6y agoIt seems odd because of the moral hazard. Basically, the court is saying, "Treat your employees as you will, just make sure they're not French.". Is this really any less of a problem if French deliveries are packed by abused Belgian peons?
- touktouk 6y agoNo, but unless the French decide that they can force others countries to follow their laws, the only choice is between [French protection laws applied in France; French protection laws not applied abroad] and [French protection laws not applied in France; French protection laws not applied abroad].
