If you ever cross the border from Frankfurt/Oder, the first thing you see in Poland is a giant Amazon building. Despite that building being there, Polish people still can't order at Amazon.
- Mediterraneo10 6y agoPolish people (in fact, people all over the world) can order on Amazon.de, they just can't get the same shipping rates that German customers get.
- pawelk 6y agoAh yes, this is funny, because shipment from a warehouse in Poland to a customer in Germany, placing an order on amazon.de is considered "local", while shipment from this same warehouse to a customer in Poland is "international". Before COVID there were rumors that Amazon may officially enter Polish market this year with state-owned Polish Post as the local shipping partner.
- AnssiH 6y ago> Polish people still can't order at Amazon. That is not true. Amazon.de is even available in Polish, with free shipping for €39+ orders.
- pawelk 6y agoWe can order from amazon.de, it even offers localized UI and (poorly auto-translated) product descriptions. But yes, I think it's likely that an order from amazon.de goes trough Frankfurt am Oder, as it probably originated from one of many Amazon warehouses in Poland.
