But does ApolloX have the logistical backbones in place to provide the same level of service that Amazon FBA can provide? As someone who as dipped his toes into selling on Amazon, the top reasons to sell through that platform is 1.) They get tons of traffic so your product has a much higher chance of being seen and bought, 2.) They will manage the shipping (via prime) for you for a fee and that fee is generally worth it because people want their orders fast. If ApolloX has not considered these things along with their blockchain product, I don't see how they stand a chance. Not trying to discourage the project, just offering some insight that others may not have.
I love the innovative idea behind ApolloX project and I am currently on its bounty as well to promote it so as to enable it get much more popularity among my Crypto Network cycle. I wish the ApolloX project a massive SUCCESS this year 2018!
The problems ApolloX is solving
Even though the rise of e-commerce is a leap forward in regards to offline shopping, it still has significant downsides for the users of e-commerce platforms.
Trust is expensive
Establishing trust between two parties is very difficult in an online environment. Therefore, reputation and dispute settlement arrangements have become essential for e-commerce, both of which are provided by the well known online shopping platforms. Buyers know they can trust these platforms and enjoy a secure e-shopping experience, however, both buyers and sellers are paying the bill.
For example, sellers have to pay Amazon at least 15% of sales just to be listed. Even though e-commerce platforms do provide solid services to their sellers, they handsomely overcharge them for this. This is because platforms such as eBay and Amazon know that sellers almost have to use them to reach a sizeable audience. Costs for just running a storefront range from 10 to 25% of the gross sales.
