So what you've established is that only an idiot would order groceries through Uber Courier. Which means that we agree that you're not the target market. Edit

So what you've established is that only an idiot would order groceries through Uber Courier. Which means that we agree that you're not the target market. Edited to add: 25% more expensive may be comparable, depending on how it scales. The price of a bike messenger goes up significantly if you want a rush, something larger than a legal-size document, etc.

> Breakaway’s same day courier delivery services, including bicycle and foot couriers, allow for easy, same day courier delivery of small packages less than 15 lbs. http://blog.uber.com/RUSH http://blog.uber.com/RUSH "Your messenger will be on bike or on foot, and will not be able to deliver some oversized items" It is a bike messenger v. bike messenger situation. Eh? Seems similar to me. What I've been getting at here is Uber doesn't have a competitive advantage. It isn't cheaper. It isn't better. It doesn't even have first mover advantage. Sure, it'll make some money but not enough to justify a massive valuation that it has.
