More Online Stores Might Give Amazon a Run for Its Money

This post on retailwire highlights how Walmart.com might soon surpass Amazon.com's online retail success with its new launch. Kerry Cooper, Walmart.com's CMO recently mentioned:

"We've added nearly one million new items to our online assortment with the introduction of Walmart Marketplace, making it even easier for customers to find more of what they want when shopping Walmart.com. Working with select retailers, known for their strong customer service and large online assortments of new merchandise, gives our customer more reasons to choose Walmart.com when shopping online."

Walmart is expanding its product offering through product merchants, but they are not alone as well. Sears.com, Overstock, and Buy.com are among others that also do this.
