One of the positive impacts that the ‘Amazon effect’ has on customers is that they sell
many different interesting items! Instead of the customers spending extra time locally
going from store to store searching for what they need/want, with Amazon, all they have to
do is go online and shop away! It’s so convenient.
!
Amazon has grocery stores where customers can load up their carts and walk right out the
door. They will be automatically billed via their credit cards. This is progress.
!
Regarding the negative impacts of the ‘Amazon effect,’ I think that all parties should play
a role in making sure that ethical practices are followed. I think that businesses should be
transparent and open when it comes to this subject. There should not be any deliberate
deceptions.
!
Customers should make sure that they are well informed concerning unethical business
practices. I do think that most unethical fair treatment concerns should fall directly on the
shoulders of the businesses.
