And sometimes those emotive decisions can very well pay off. See Twitter.

Even If Amazon.com tries to purchase it again...They shouldn't sell it...Enough of giving potential money bags to outsiders..This is India's thing...
In your Face amazon...

Btw, Amazon is about to launch for India in 2012! That's news!

this is indeed TRUE! I also had read an article somewhere, which mentioned that Amazon is already buying and investing in warehouses, all over India!

[MatchBoxx]

Couldn't Find the speakers that i wanted on Flipkart, couldn't find the few computer peripherals that i needed on Flipkart, forget competitive pricing for any. And story wasn't different with Mobile. Limited range, with about 6 to 8 % higher priced than the other sites.
This makes me think and ponder.
What's with the million dollar funding that they are getting..? Or is this eye wash for that Foreign funding...!

That's an exception.

For an Indian startup, to reach this level of success is already exceptional in any case. If they have already been exceptionally successful for what they have done, why not risk it a bit further?

 

[rosemolr]

Yeah...They really deserve it guys..so far i had purchased books and stuff worth of 10k...the best thing about flipkart is their super duper fast shipping...
