Amazon India News & Updates

i meant Amazon took its sweet time to launch in india. i am guessing they have established a decent enough network to ensure timely and cheap delivery.
i am guessing flipkart knew about this launch and that is why they are cutting logistical costs by sharing their warehouse and delivery network.

Yeah. That is visible. Multiple sellers are listed for each item. COD and Indian Payment options all setup. Hell, check this page - http://services.amazon.in/services.html
And there must be multiple fulfillment centers operating. So they are really in the mood to topple the Indian E-commerce scene.

No product listing fees

Heh. Looks like eBay is in trouble too.

I thought Flipkart was handling sale and delivery of products through third party retailers on their store?

 

[Navjot Singh]

Ah yes. That.
