Amzn delivery reliability has dropped pretty dramatically already. Number of late and lost packages are consistently getting higher from what I can tell...

So how much is the interest rate when they have to pay that 10k back

Walmart will eat his lunch once people see the service that inexperienced new business owners provide. How long before we read about a driver ditching packages because they can’t keep up? Or worse, criminal activities.

Cost of small used carrier would be higher than 10k. I would say smart move for amazon but let’s watch the output.

I think you guys failed to deliver the proceeds from at leas tone bestselling book I had--and seitseccoed me on the phone brutally when I inquired...

En mi país se le llama liquidación
