US online retail juggernaut Amazon has launched its Australian website overnight. The local version of Amazon covers a dozen broad categories, from sports and fitness to home improvement, clothing to toys, movies and games to electronics, and a bunch more.
It also appears that Amazon has Christmas shoppers in its crosshairs, with free 3-7 days shipping for orders over $49.
A quick search of the games section has turned over a small variety of bargains, including brand-new games like FIFA 18 for $39, Call of Duty: WWII for $49, and Assassin’s Creed Origins for $49.
You can also pick up a Nintendo Switch for $399 and a Minecraft edition Xbox One S for $319, which are both currently cheaper than elsewhere. There’s also a Logitech G29 racing wheel listed for the absolutely absurdly low price of $71.81 but it’s out of stock already.
Amazon’s Australian launch has been anticipated for some time; the site had been previously tipped to go live in Australia late last month to coincide with the “Black Friday” sale concept that traditionally occurs in the United States on the day after Thanksgiving holiday (but has peculiarly made its way down under).
Founded in 1994, the Seattle, Washington-based Amazon is the largest Internet retailer in the world. The company has bespoke retail websites for the United States, the United Kingdom and Ireland, Mexico, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and many more.
