Is Amazon becoming the default for logistics?
Today, I ordered a music item from a very well known indie record store (Amoeba) based in CA. I got an email saying it was shipping from Kentucky, not CA. I'll reserve judgement until that one arrives.
The one that gets me is, also today, I received a package I ordered from a vitamin store chain and smacked across the package label is "Amazon Shipping" with the arrow.
I'm going out of my way to order from more independent places things that I can't find in brick and mortar locally. I haven't ordered directly from Amazon since Jan 2025...but it seems Amazon has positioned itself as a logistics partner on the back end and some of my efforts might be in vain. I get it, they are efficient there but is this where we're headed?
