As if Amazon can't undercut them more than they undercut Amazon. A claim to always have the cheapest prices online is ridiculous.

I finally got invited to Jet.com beta today.
Their prices blow amazons prices outta the water.
Every listing I searched has a "competitive price" which after some research I found out is always amazons price (I checked a bunch of listings), and then there's Jets price which is always about 10-15% cheaper. Jet actually lowers their price to a certain discount relative to amazons price. I watched an item go from 300 to 282 as amazons price went lower.

Chrome books, every last one is $30-50 cheaper. iPods, iPads, etc.
On top of that, they bundle on additional savings if you buy more items or different items.

I'm telling you folks, I don't know if Jet.com will be the next big thing, but we're entering the golden age of cutthroat Internet pricing and I will enjoy every second of it. I can't wait for Amazons response!

Not long enough to get the amount of products amazon has.

Discounts bring customers.
Customers bring sellers.
Sellers bring products.

That cycle can happen very quickly especially with all the software nowadays that synchronize listings from one marketplace to the next.

Probably artificially low to attract customers.
If you don't care why would you comment?

I don't think so based on how their model works.
A lot of the prices are sustainable as long as they are comfortable forgoing on commissions.
They currently are subsidizing prices of retailers by about 10% to stay competitive, but they are charging those same retailers 15% to sell on the platform.

Seems sustainable to me.
