Jet.com vs Amazon.com

[bizlady]

Read about a new service a month or so ago that may give Amazon a real run for the money, according to the article. So I signed up for info.

Got a free 6 month Beta invite this morning and took a look around. They will make their money with the annual fee ($49.95) instead of the products. Not the variety of Amazon, but some promising prices including in groceries. Free 2 day shipping with $35 plus purchase.

Anyway, looks like you can still sign up for info, and get a free 6 months when they are ready to roll out.... if interested: https://jet.com/

I understand that they are collecting emails… but I think this site has real potential-and is getting some media attention…

Amazon’s (AMZN) Prices Are Significantly Higher Than Rising Startup Jet.com - TheStreet


I have ordered 7 items since getting access to Jet-- 1 from Amazon and 6 from Jet- which was cheaper for 6 out of 7 items. Two additional items I have in my Amazon cart and Jet did not have those products. (and I do not have an affiliation of any kind with Jet.) One item arrived in 5 days instead of the 1-2 posted, and another item arrived in the wrong, but still acceptable color. So some bugs, but worth pricing.

how do you get an invite code?

On the bottom right of the page, there is a "sign up for updates". I just signed up for that, got an invite about 3 weeks later.
