NewEgg Launches Same Day Delivery In LA

City of Industry-based online retailer Newegg said Monday that it has begun testing same-day delivery in Los Angeles, allowing consumers to order electronics and other items from the company by 11 a.m., for delivery before 6 p.m. NewEgg said that it will start delivery in "select communities" in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. According to NewEgg, if the same day delivery goes well, it plans to expand the service into new delivery areas. The company said it added the new service because same day delivery is becoming the "gold standard of online retail." The new service puts NewEgg into competition with Amazon.com, which has been rolling out same day delivery in markets nationwide.
