Amazon Prime Day sales soar despite glitches
Amazon.com Inc. sales rose sharply during the first three hours of its Prime Day sales event, dispelling fears that the technical glitches that incensed shoppers would significantly hurt business.
Shoppers spent 54 percent more in the first three hours of this year’s event -- 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. EST -- than in the first three hours of a year ago when the shopping bonanza began at 9 p.m., according to Feedvisor, which sells software to set prices in e-commerce.
