I joined Jet some months ago when it came online but I have never purchased
anything from them.

Now I hear that Walmart has purchased Jet.

Walmart has a horrible shopping site/set up. I mean in one way it is easy to
navigate but there are issues with their site. It is far from up to date.

I was a Spark Reviewer for Walmart and I really liked it. It was kind of like
Amazon's Vine Reviewer program. However, after less than 1 and a half years,
they ended the Spark Review program. It ended abruptly. It was weird.

Walmart's packaging is often a nightmare but they do make it right if you
contact them about it.

So I just wonder what they intend for the 'Jet' webstore.

My question what is a Jet store??

I am using amazon less and less. They becoming full of poor quality substandard stuff. I hate walmart.com but if can not easily find it at Amazon that next site. They got less items so sometimes much easier find what looking for. They do not let 3rd parties sell their so less likely find fakes from Chinese sellers. Now only go amazon for books, ebooks, and few other things. Electronics and movies I go bestbuy.com. I use Walmart.com when find as often find store out of it. Hopefully jet purchase make walmart.com better. 3 billion dollars safe bet they doing it just for this reason as ran by person that started bunch sites used in past that Amazon bought out. I given up on bestbuy.com improving so no longer waste time telling them there site substandard on new listings 75% have no pictures or descriptions of new releases on dvds or blurays. But it easier find there than Amazon which only reason I go thru there substandard site. Bestbuy cheaper on new releases by few dollars alot of times another reason.

Obvious Target be go down drain like Kmart and if walmart does not improve soon it will too. Alot articles about how bad sellers swamping Amazon so obvious I not only one having problem but if stick to safe categories be very happy.

Yes. It is Jet.com and they came online not too long ago......maybe a year ago.
It is kind of weird how it works. I joined but I have never purchased anything.

I think much of it just relates to customer ease of use and what they want.

Amazon has a great layout and such a huge array of products. For the most part it is easy for
the customer to use in addition to being able to read reviews and even post comments and
communicate with people that have purchased said product.

Walmart website totally stinks. Searches often come up blank. It never saves your city locale,
at least not for long. They can't keep items in stock so half the time they are out of what you
want, online and in the store. When you order something, it is like fright night waiting on it to
arrive because it takes two weeks and some times longer for their standard shipping......when
you finally receive the little container of spice you ordered it arrives in a two ton box with enough
brown paper to fill the Atlantic ocean.

Kind of weird eh?

I just took a look at it.......not for me.

Yep, I think it is a little confusing at Jet. I don't even remember how it works.
I just wish I was the one that created it because walmart bought it for several
million.

You ever wonder what you would do if you had ten million dollars?

I'd give it all away in one way or another.

I'd like to create something that would keep generating something that people need.
You know, like maybe food. Buy land, put people to work, planting and harvesting,
and then everyone share in the food for free. Something like that.

I bought off of them once when they first came out and had a special with Yahoo!. You only pay one shipping price but they ship from an assortment of places so my order came in separate shipments but quick. However, when I went to order the same items again at regular prices the prices had been jacked up and it still isn't worth it. Quick service but the prices are all over the place and discounts don't help any.

Just my experience.

It seems like Jet itself didn't have anything. In other words, I think the stuff comes from
other stores. What they do is try and give the best price offered so for example if Target
sells Tide for $10.00 and Kmart sells Tide for $9.00, the $9.00 price is going to come up
and you get the Tide from Kmart. Jet has a listing of the stores that participate. I am
not sure if it works exactly like I stated but that was the impression I got when I looked
at it after it first came out.

Alot of big stores sell on Amazon. Know Target had deal with amazon for long time until they got smart saw bad idea Amazon get data on its customers. I CAN understand why they use ebay as they not likely be able steal people but using amazon was just plane dumb. Notice Amazon does not take PayPal. They smart never understood why big sites use PayPal.

Shipping
Jet only ships within the contiguous United States (48 states and District of Columbia)

The only reason why Amazon does not accept PayPal is because PayPal is an
eBay company and eBay is a competitor to Amazon.
