Really? Adding a unique ID at the point of entry costs that much?
- FredPret 1y agoThese things can have complications when you take into account all the edge cases. And paying humans/robots to do anything really adds up. But at their scale, maybe they found a plan that works!
- SteveNuts 1y agoI thought Walmart has been doing this with their vendors for many years
- jazzyjackson 1y agoI read it as "For items in the ten to twenty dollar range, its not worth adding a vendor label" and I don't suppose its the cost of the sticker, but how much longer does it take the warehouse worker to take it from a shelf and put it in a box if they add a sticker to every item? +5% ? +10% ? +100% ? (It takes very little time to put an item in a box, I could see adding a sticker doubling this...)
