Amazon will open a queue-free department store, will it pose a threat to supermarket chains?

If Amazon really starts this queue-free department store, it will really pose a great threat to other supermarkets. However, the question is whether the implementation without queuing will be smooth sailing.

First of all, let's talk about the advantages of Amazon opening this queue-free department store. One is Amazon's long-term accumulated reputation, which will make physical department stores more popular with customers. Compared with general department stores, customers may prefer Amazon department stores. Another tall point is that Amazon's supermarkets can avoid queuing, which undoubtedly saves a lot of time for many people with fast pace of life, and queuing for payment is also very troublesome.

However, I still have doubts about Amazon's means of using sensors to monitor what products customers take or put back on the shelves. What if the customer takes a product and finds that he doesn't want it? Will there be a situation where department stores are misplaced? This situation is very common in supermarkets. In addition, how to ensure that customers can realize Amazon account payment after taking the goods?

If Amazon needs to submit an order for a certain product now, put the money into Alipay like Taobao, and realize the receipt confirmation after the transaction, it will be more troublesome to go to the physical store, but it will only increase the experience of product visibility. However, in any case, such an attempt is still very good. After all, with Amazon's word-of-mouth guarantee, I believe many people are willing to buy it.
