In a sign of how far Amazon’s shipping operation has come, the company will be selling and delivering seven-foot Christmas trees to customers this holiday season. And yes, they’ll be eligible for Prime shipping.
According to The Associated Press, Amazon will start selling the trees sometime in November, letting buyers pick between Douglas firs, Norfolk Island pines, and other options. A seven-foot Fraser fir (sourced from a North Carolina farm) will go for $115.
The trees will ship in a large box, but Amazon isn’t including water or anything extra in there. Apparently, each tree will be sent out within 10 days of being cut down, so the company expects they’ll make it through the shipping process just fine before eventually drying out…
