Was this a press release? And the editor who wrote the sensational headline clearly didn’t read the article. They only carry 600 items, many of which aren’t even available from Amazon.
I was trying for sarcasm in the last line. Have to work on that.
It’s Boxed, not Box – that’s something else. And if anybody takes that headline seriously, I can build a competitor to a Boeing 777 in 20 seconds, using a single sheet of paper.
Right? At first I thought this was about Box.net being an alternative to Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3).
Right. It’s not really a competitor if they sell different things.
How could Boxed be an Amazon competitor if they’re trying to make a profit?
