Bezos tells people not to buy big ticket items

a reply to: JAGStorm

Bezos of the River, must be anticipating a Deflationary Recession in 2023 where prices crumble from the present inflation pricing model.... which is wayyy too overpriced in CPI status

his mention is purely for domestic consumers to make him appear relevent.....musk makes bezos look luddite like

Well if we go into a full blown depression there is a good chance credit itself will go away when all those people load up their credit cards to the max and then declare bankruptcy. And/or Weimar republic levels of inflation show up then those owing a few thousand dollars might windup owing the equivalent of 10 or 20 bucks value wise. Assuming that oldbucks have any value whatsoever after the great reset.


Of course there is a bible prophecy that seems to predict that a country that conquers several others in the middle east is then broken 4 ways. I wonder if we have been in the prophecy for the past 20 years?

This could be the feel bad song of the mid to late 20s with a minor lyric change.

In my experience, the delays in getting things from China are getting worse. Something is going on in that sector.He might run out of stuff to sell .

I dont know of many hatches to "batten down" but now is a good time to batten down some nutritional north korean dirt and grass recipes that will come in handy while half the neighborhood is cannibalizing their neighbors...

I saw a video and the warehouse workers were in shock.

Covid created a lot of demand, and once that was over the demand went away. If people didn't realize this, that's kinda nuts.

Well if he was selling stuff and making money he would be hiring. If the dollar is going to go south, maybe the Chinese want payment in a more substantial form. Like something with worth, they won't accept a free feast of printed dollars.

Means that there going to be less delivery trucks on the road and less aircraft flying packages. 10,000 employees equals 10x that in the grand scheme of things.

Not to sure about money going digital right now. That little punk that owns FTX. He scammed enough people, for us to realize, just how bogus digital currency is.

Good excuse for the government to oversee it.

And right after Bezos announced the big Amazon layoffs, the Federal Reserve guy told industries to reduce the pay of workers, in order to reduce inflation.

They want to burn the thirty trillion printed over the last few years. As it is all coming back as they sell off dollar bonds.

I suppose it would benefit him via the fact that "big ticket items" are generally harder to deliver than the smaller type.

And with people just going about purchasing smaller items he's still apt to clear up with the delivery fees.

Yes I know the magic number is 118, the problem is I just do not trust anything. And knowing how corrupt these people right now, I do not put it past them to do something that will pull that number back to their side. I will believe that we won the house, when the entire voting system is completely done. I especially do not like that for days on end we stay at that 218 number and it never moves.

i thought the US consumers where on 2007 spending binges for the big ticket items pre crash while bezos wants them to spend with him..

just saying this tells us a lot more than we already know about the economy...

Not sure, lots of big ticket items comes with free or cheap delivery, or you drive it off the lot or move in.

However on that note, I know I won’t be buying the items I normally buy as Christmas gifts to send out this year, and I know my friends won’t mind at all since they are in the same boat. My wife has hand painted Christmas cards this year, framable if one wants to.

Oh Well , Guess I will just have to Wait to Spend that 60 Thou I have Burning in my Pocket on Can Goods Instead . Thanks Jeff !

If part of a “ Great Re-set “ is to forgive credit card debt., maybe the concern is that people will still own the big ticket items that have value still, but won’t have to pay it off ? IDK, just thinking out loud ?
