]]> Comment on Amazon Fulfillment Web Service by alex http://thebitt.com/2008/03/20/amazon-fulfillment-web-service/#comment-4532 alex Fri, 21 Mar 2008 16:15:03 +0000 http://thebitt.com/2008/03/20/amazon-fulfillment-web-service/#comment-4532 The company started out as Shipper.com and later became Sameday.com. Our target was to provide 80% next day ground coverage and 30-40% same day delivery coverage. We built a network of warehouses around the country with a multi-client/multi-location order management layer above that that provided availability information, order routing based on geographic optimization, split order management, shipment data, and I'm sure a bunch of other stuff through our API. We were doing web services, before they were give a name. After e commerce crashed, we turned it into a time critical spare parts network - but by then the valuation had tanked. Sold the network to Ryder. The company started out as Shipper.com and later became Sameday.com. Our target was to provide 80% next day ground coverage and 30-40% same day delivery coverage.

What company were you with in 2000 when you built this? I wanted to add that amazon isn’t the only company out there doing this. http://www.shipwire.com Our API’s have been exposed for a while. Free Trial. Try us out. No credit card needed to connect and try the warehouse. http://www.shipwire.com/trial We allow merchants to ship from many warehouses for faster delivery and much lower shipping prices. We have a widget at Shipwire.com/pricing that shows how this works. Hover over the orange Tag at “DHL”. Input your current ship from location and see how much you would save. Then see if you get 1-2 day delivery for the price of ground if you use the full warehouse network. We build the free trial to be used, so please do try it. cheers, Nate Hello Alex,
