That is false.

Jet has warehouses to cover the whole U.S. With two day shipping on core items. As well as a marketplace like the other businesses you mentioned.

Jet is trying to save its customers money by not making a profit on the items they sell and offering all kinds of discounts from the commission they would have made all the way to the supply chain cost and passing all of that to the customer.

It's not surprising that this model clashes with retailers they are not in the business of saving people money and they certainly see the disruption this will cause and the efficiencies it will force on them. They will have to get efficient to compete if this takes off.

Have you been on there recently? I must admit that early on it was messy... but you know its a startup in beta...

However, I disagree on the price bit. Their selection isnt as large as amazon yet but I have found them to be 5%-15% cheaper on all items that they do have.

Just removed the Twitter app... Sorry Twitter but no thank you.

This is awesome and flies in the face of many arguments that functional and imperative programming languages need to be kept "pure" and mutually exclusive.

Well written and I agree with all 4 steps proposed to get a raise.
