Amazon’s Echo Sells Out—Except in Store
During this holiday season the eco speaker is almost sold on on the amazon website expecting on amazons brick and mortar stores. They are still up for grabs in stores to get for a quick last minutes gift. These eco devices are like smart devices and can connect to smart phone devices and play music. This popular item won't be coming back into stock until after Christmas. Amazon is one of the online stores that always has plenty of items in stock and can delivery to almost any part of the world but the exhonspeaker shows that this isn't always the case. It seems that popular items that are sold out online will me in amazing books stores. Some products that aren't found in either can be found on amazon prime which I find interesting becuase I don't see why it wouldn't be on Amazon too. The eco devices have been very popular since thanksgiving and has sole over 5 million products. There are also many other popular devices that people are going to want to buy on amazon and they might be out of stock just like the eco devices. John Haber, chief of executive of supply-chain consultancy said, "companies are trying to keep their inventory low, becuase they don't want to get stuck with a lot of excessive inventory". I think this is smart if companies to have a limited amount online and have others in stores so they don't run out of stock room by having a product that was never sold. Amazon is trying something new and I think it's a great idea but for very popular products they should have more in stock online.
