Ask HN: Any startup standing against Amazon?

4 pointsby n_talmost 7 years ago
More specifically, is there a challenger in USA against Amazon? While I'm sure Amazon people have worked hard to earn this stature, I hate monopolies (AMZN is 48% of retail business). Probably big corporates have already accepted their second rate position against this Goliath but is there any David still in making or worth supporting?

Wayfair, Walmart, BestBuy, Google, and Target are all working very hard to beat Amazon in their respective categories. They haven&#x27;t &quot;accepted&quot; anything.<p>Jet.com was a high-profile Amazon competitor that was acquired by Walmart a few years ago.

Where were you when Walmart was the worst monopolist in town? Before that it was Kmart, then Sears. This is an overplayed tune.
