amazon_logoshoptolet10aAlot of confusion is in the air as UK newspaper the Sunday times has published an article that states Amazon will be looking for “store locations in the UK as it looks to take its business into the physical realm” – This is interesting to move from online to physical stores, seeing as the world seems to be moving the opposite direction. Many shop are moving to the online option as it is so much easier and cheaper these days.

This statement is very confusing seeing as Amazon now deny all these plans, but what have they got to say?

Yesterday a report in The Sunday Times, said that the aim would be to make a model of Argos, which has seen success with online orders and in-store collection. This means that you could order your goods online but pick them up at a store instead of awaiting there delivery. This has become increasingly appealing as Amazon expands beyond small items like books, CDs and DVDs.

A spokesman for the group has now said that they have no plans to do this. But even though they say this wouldn’t it make it so much easier to allow customers to pick up items from local outlets? This could indeed significantly improve the experience of buying large items on Amazon.
