After N years of waiting for Australians, the Australian Amazon officially opened today. However, the price and quantity of the goods have disappointed many people.
Amazon, which officially opened this morning, does not have a lot of goods, and many popular products don`t sell at all. Apple, for example, has very few products, and some of them are sold by KOGAN. We know that KOGAN products are foreign products, not real Australian products, so there is no Australian warranty. If you want to buy such a product, there is no reason to go to Australia Amazon.
Price is also a point of complaint. Amazon said at the beginning of the year that it was already collecting retail prices in Australia and would be 30% cheaper when Amazon opened. And that`s not the price right now.
Many of the products recommended on Amazon`s home page do not have a price advantage. For example, the Sennheiser HD 4.50 headphones are only $13 cheaper than the JB Hi-Fi, and dishwasher pills are even more expensive than other stores. Some products are surprisingly expensive, such as the Samsung 65-inch TV, which Amazon costs $6,000.
The price for JB Hi-Fi is $4,000. Amazon is $2000 more expensive than JB Hi-Fi
Chanel, the same perfume, Australia`s Amazon is more expensive than the David Jones 60 Australian dollars.
Currently, Amazon Australia offers more than $49 free of mail to designated areas, requiring a week of mailing time.
We don`t know if Amazon is offering a discount before Christmas.
