"People were so mad about the New York Amazon deal because they were saying it was twice as big as the normal incentive package. The Foxconn deal is 10 times as big." https://t.co/QdkA8sw6xw from @replyall's @sruthiri

Was just taking other people's stuff and tossing it into their inventory as though it were all the same as just Amazon selling it themselves.

So third-party vendors are like kind of a big risk for Amazon because they can only control so–the way that these people behave to a certain degree. It really is this thing where–where Jeff Bezos was like, “I want this store to have every single product.” And so like the–getting stuff from third parties was basically just like a magic trick to make it look like they had more stuff in their window than they actually did. They were just like, “Hey, we have all this too! Even though it's not actually ours!”

And that magic trick totally worked. It just made the place look like it was massively stocked with things.
