Yep they do that too but it's not risk free for physical stores because they take up shelf space. Anything that isn't moving off storefront shelves isn't making them any revenue - unlike Amazon they can't present every product through a paginated digital catalog while charging for warehouse storage.
- dantheman 5y agoYou don't think page space matters? How many people go page 30 of results?
- akiselev 5y agoPage space doesn't matter, at all. Anyone can produce more Amazon searches in 5 minutes than there are shelves in a retail store. Amazon makes money no matter which page you buy it from AND they charge all the merchants on page 30 for storing their goods in the Amazon warehouses on top of any commission. That's the exact opposite of inventory risk, that's an inventory gold mine. Retail stores can only sell stuff that is physical within arms reach of a customer. We're talking about retail vs Amazon, not retail vs Alibaba reseller #39146527.
