There is a way for doing same day, or even same hour shipping everywhere. Combine pre-ordering with gps.
A website where people can express they want to purchase something at a certain maximum delivery charge. As soon as enough people want to purchase things in a certain geographic area (based on a calculation of delivery route), they service kicks in - someone picks out all the goods (this would most likely be a grocery store) and then drives and delivers it on that route.
- duaneb 14y agoThis depends on both a large density of users and readily available merchandise (e.g. a warehouse). Of course, in my experience, the only reason people go to eBay is for things they can't get on Amazon - collectibles, used clothing, items not manufactured anymore. None of these combine well with warehouses due to their relatively unique nature.
