The Grand Theory of Amazon

Thanks to sponsor Dollar Shave Club, new members get their 1st month of the Daily Essentials Starter Set including trial-sized versions of their Body Cleanser, One Wipe Charlies’ Butt Wipes, and Shave Butter along with their Executive Razor for only $5 with free shipping.

Amazon sells everything from streaming video to organic grapes, and it’s all part of a large (likely successful) strategy to dominate the entire consumer market.

*The end of this video includes a paid sponsored promotion. This company had no part in the writing, editing, or production of the rest of the video.

That sponsor transition was so smooth, just like my face after using the Dollar Shave Club.

That ad transition was so smooth, I almost bought a razor. I don't have a mustache.

My jaw dropped with that transition...

[austinch]

That transition was smooth I didn't realize it was an ad until I was buying the razors.

love how he literally talks about the employees for one sec and the competitors for two. "we may never know why Amazon makes things so cheap" yeah we do. Its to raise prices later. Like they do on every single product after they've ran out the competitors.

Ive never seen such a drastic improvement in content from your first video and now, nice job PolyMatter

[AlexDicy]

I don't know what's going on here, but every video you post, makes me happy. Saying that those are perfect might be a little to much but hey... they are. Keep up your awesome work!

Was waiting for him to say "oh, by the way, Amazon owns Dollar Shave Club too" at the very end

The grand theory of why polymatter posts about grand theories

[teenagegringo]

I was just talking to my friend who's a bike courier in Seattle. He just found out their app was owned by Amazon. He started asking around and realized that 7 out of 8 of his roomates were also employed by companies that were owned by Amazon.

I disagree, the Amazon is shrinking everyday because of deforestation.
Do some research next time.
