Amazon is on a spending spree to grow its fleet of planes, vans, semitrucks and drivers in its latest move to compete with FedEx and UPS. Now, it’s using the added capacity to move cargo for outside customers, betting big on the business of third-party shipping while also shipping 72% of its own packages. CNBC talks to former Amazon executives and current customers using the shipping services to find out all about the behemoth’s next big move.

There was no padding or anything in that huge box... just the tiny rubber mat box taking up maybe 5% of the space in the big box! It was absolutely ridiculous, and I posted a photo of it to my FB page.

Totes stacked 3 high squashing the bottom ones and falling over. I've also had boxes not taped shut, envelopes not closed and things falling out of them. Quick seems to be more important than right.

Guy that doesn’t understand the meaning of the word monopoly tries to sound smart by using the term “monopoly”.

A monopoly is when one company has a disproportionately large share of a single market/service/goods. E-commerce and postal services are two different markets.

Small business owners should be deeply concerned for the future. First, Amazon offers you convenient delivery services between you and your customers. Then, they will start offering products similar to and cheaper than the products you offer, eventually forcing you out of the market in general. Now, with the recent supply chain problems in the USA (e.g. the traffic jam of cargo ships outside of Long Beach and Los Angeles harbors, for example), large retailers like Walmart and Amazon are slowly edging out the small business competition by being rich enough to pay for their own private transportation (cargo ships, trucks, etc.) to exclusively transport their own products wherever and whenever they want without having to "wait" for anybody and/or anything. Can your average small town "mom and pop" business afford that? I don't think so. Expect to see the death of many, if not most, small businesses in America within this decade.

You definitely have no idea of how Shipping and Logistics works. These are parcel service FedEx UPS will never cease to exist because everything else that you can assume where are used is shipped to you somehow. Even if it’s inside the United States that it’s manufactured maybe you need to still move it state to state and these are pallets and these are bulky shipments and we do truckloads of freight that are on skids. What you’re saying is only partial small packages. Even Boeing has their aircraft parts shipped out of like for example… FedEx UPS DHL and everybody else that does shipping will not disappear there is enough freight for everyone to have a piece of cake. This does jeopardize the pricing does FedEx and UPS use to charge their customers double that one Amazon is doing. This is actually a good thing. More options more capacity faster shipping and lower rates. I’m a logistic sales rep by the way, just sharing

Breaking down monopolies like Google or Amazon would suggest that government have power over corporations, instead of corporations having power over the government by buying politicians to do lobbying for them together with being too big to fail, so with power to blackmail public money in order to save them from any bankruptcy just because of the massive amount of jobs they provide... With corporate propaganda of trying to make the government even less capable to do anything for the sake of "freedom from a powerful tyrannical government" which still many conservative people buying, you can predict how any attempt to make government do what it is supposed to do like protecting worker, consumer, and environmental rights in the US would actually work in real life... All that said, Amazon at least risen wages for its warehouse staff unlike many other businesses to livable levels even before recent temporary wage rises due to lack of workforce willing to work during a pandemic for food stamp wages.

I’m a FedEx Ground delivery driver, and I can say that we rarely deliver Amazon packages. We’ll get them here and there but not as we used to. On the other hand USPS is definitely getting overwhelmed with Amazon deliveries. I talk to the USPS drivers on my route and when I see their deliveries half of their trucks are full of Amazon.

I live in rural California over 2 hours to the closest WalMart. Amazon has been an overwhelming disappointment in our area the last year or so. Average Prime delivery times are about 7 days. My Prime membership just expired and I did not renew because of this. They blame UPS, but I get Walmart, HomeDepot, etc packages in 2 days so Amazon is just lying and dropping the ball.

Exploitation of labor ranks higher up than both of those. On average they're profiting $5 or more per package delivered. Most drivers deliver 220+ packages per day while making around $17 an hour. Do the math. There's almost 300k drivers employed through contracted companies delivering cheap plastic junk that gets to you the next day because people sell their bodies and time to a highly advantageous company that uses those contracted companies to sidestep labor laws and collective bargaining. It's truly an evil operation. They aren't some masterful logistics company either. The routes are horribly modeled and their GPS app is worse than the earliest Garmin and TomToms and they rely entirely on churning and burning people with incredibly high turnover rates.

@@johnjacobjingleheimerschmi2070 Online shopping was never the primary model of Amazon. They even self claim low-profit margin which means they deflate prices to compete with other retailers while they have to pay third-party expenses for people selling on Amazon. How did they gain so much income after all? The simple answer is they avoid paying tax at all costs. A low-profit margin means you don't earn so much after paying for all expenses compared to the revenue you earn. On top of that, there is even taxation to seal the deal. But Amazon can avoid paying much tax because they operate so much in R&D and infrastructure. They spend so much on R&D to upgrade their technology while using cloud computing to collect customer data to sell it to third parties and such. It used to be the source of income for banksters but now Amazon can capture customer experience and shopping data. Different from other retail, they store customer data so instead of spending money to buy from banks, they save some bucks for buying and use the data to sell to third parties for more income. They also earn infrastructure tax credit on their cloud computing information storage. Low-margin deflated price but their prime business is tax credit and data selling. Interesting huh?

Years ago, Bezos actually mentioned in an interview he was modeling this company after China. That should say it all. Over time the service is not what it used to be and their products seem to be 90 % or more....made in China. I'm now finding prices and product quality often better by ordering from other places. I not long ago ordered a $10. item from Amazon and it turned out that the company it shipped from was in CHINA ! it literally was shipped to me FROM CHINA ! And obviously took forever ! This is nuts. I now always check out every company that ships any item listed on Amazon before ordering. And increasingly.....yup....China., China,China so I'm ordering elsewhere. I have nothing against China personally, per se, but...take it for what it's worth. If the American economy is going to survive, it just seems people need to start turning to alternatives even if it does cost a bit more. Otherwise, the ultimate "cost" of what's happening here ...well, I think it's obvious.

I live in a small rural town in NW Oregon and have been a Prime member for several years. Up until a couple of weeks ago my home porch deliveries in cartons larger than my rural roadside USPS mailbox will accommodate are now kept at post office and I must go down and pick it up myself. This defeats the once favorable situation I had enjoyed being an 83 year senior. And, yes, quite often cartons are much larger than needed. Sometimes ridiculously so.
