>>Costco's website was easy to navigate and worked well for me. I always thought the warehouse stores (Price Plus/Costco and Wallmart with Sam's Town) could work the internet B to C format into their models much easier than the regular retailers. I asked someone at a big warehouse store about this in 97, and got the sense a lot of the fiefdoms understood this, though top management was still a little leery about the IT expenditure and, especially, potential for disruption. AMZN presumably scared them into line. I've always thought people would spend more at places like Costco if they could fill out an order (online or otherwise) for bulky items, like laundry detergent or whatever, browse for impulse purchases, and then check out with everything.
