Google Shopping Express

One Day, Google Will Deliver the Stuff You Want Before You Ask

Fresh off the tail of Monday's class on eBay and Amazon, Google answers "Yes" to the question, "Does eBay play in the same stack as Google?" Last Wednesday, Google announced a same-day shipping service titled, Google Shopping Express, further blurring the stack lines of the tech giants we've discussed thus far. The service is in direct competition with eBay Now (one-hour delivery service), and as you may correctly suspect, Amazon as well. Just don't expect eBay to retaliate with a self-driving car...or maybe...

Considering Eli's good point of eBay perceived as an "antique" e-shop, would you use Google for your online shopping needs given the new service? Or do they suffer from a different branding issue that also ends in a lack of e-tail sales?
