Traffic in Prime days is a few percent of Singles day at Alibaba. Amazon was down a couple of times. In terms of sales, Alibaba has 30B in one day while Amazon only has 4B in 2 days. Remember, China is still a developing country. In terms of GDP, US is 1.5X. In terms of GDP per capita, US is 6X. Engineers at retails work their butts off for prime days, and it still sucked big time. The business sucks, the tech sucks.
Not enough TT engineers for bureaucracy and heavily process oriented comp model?
Thanks, Prime Day. I shopped for all my items today on Best Buy. They had such good competing deals.
Walmart too
Alibaba just sales a bunch of fake knock off shit for dirt cheap. So the billions of poor people in China can still afford to buy that shit
What kind of argument is this.! OP is talking about availability.
Don’t be salty. Alibaba has specialized engineering teams working extensively around singles days. So Alibaba probably doesn’t have that much infrastructure superiority Source: Chinese colleague whose last job was at Baba
OP was the deal you added to cart went OOS before you checked out?
Why English is like bad at typing?
Alibaba lol. All they do is copy and steal shit... mad business model.
BABA is B2B though, completely different models. The bigger question is number of transactions/orders processed not a $ amount in sales. Customers are buying in very large quantities so I’d expect their biggest day of the year to be larger than us in sales, wouldn’t you? BTW, not disagreeing that we’ve done a poor job on prime day.
Alibaba and amazon are not comparable. Look at Alibaba interface to start with. Then look at their chat function and you might faint
Prime Day sucks because the “deals” suck.
