10. Amazon's "one-day delivery" service spent $800 million is questioned
According to May 3, Amazon recently announced that it would change its Prime next-day delivery to one-day delivery to improve delivery services and plans to invest $800 million in this transformation. According to Forbes, Amazon shipped more than 5 billion items in 2017. By 2022, it is expected that the US will have more than 56 million Prime users and more than 122 million globally.
Many Amazon users posted their views on social media about the change. A Twitter user shared an interesting video clip claiming it was what Amazon delivery trucks look like on the delivery road. In the video, when the delivery time is changed from two days to one day, the truck is driving at high speed while turning rapidly on the road and flying into the air.
Some Amazon users agreed on Twitter for the company's change, as they believe that one-day delivery will "change their lives." Another part of Twitter users found that one-day delivery was a bit incredible because in their previous shopping, Amazon rarely really implemented the next-day delivery to the end and could not always guarantee delivery to the door within the specified time.
