Really, then why are there plausible competitors for Wal-Mart (Target, Costco, etc) but no other Amazons for general purpose online shopping?

- andromeduck 6y agoWhat is Shopify, Instacart, Walmart and the thousand other businesses you can buy from directly.
- chrisco255 6y agoIf you want to find a thing to purchase online, you know almost certainly that Amazon will have it. This is not the case with any other e-commerce site. No one has the breadth of products that Amazon has. No one comes close. Yes, I can buy things on walmart.com that are commonly carried in Walmart, but they only have a tiny fraction of the overall selection of Amazon. It's not even a contest.
- huffmsa 6y agoI can order online from all of those stores, and get it faster than if I ordered from Amazon because they all have better last mile infrastructure. Walmart supports 3rd parties as well I think.
