Amazon gave out some highlights from 2005 Xmas season and it looks like they had a very good quarter. What jumped out at me was that they shipped products to more than 200 countries.
Here’s the press release.
I also came across this release in which Joyo.com (Amazon China) will be testing a lower threshold for free shipping; it will now be roughly US$13 to quality – a 50% decrease, and much more realistic amount.
