Amazon 4-Star Store @ SoHo Manhattan (Review)

During September 2018 I had the chance to visit at the Amazon 4-Star store in Manhattan New York

The store, which is located on 72 Spring St, at the SoHo, was initiated on the same day I visited there.

Since the OVR Guy (which is me…) is a professional reviewer & an Amazon Influencer, I decided that it would be an excellent opportunity to make a video review about the Amazon 4-Star store for my relatively new YouTube channel “OVR Travel”.

Here is a video review I made following my visit at the Amazon 4-Star store:

After watching the video, here’s some more thoughts about the store:

Personally, I had a great time visiting this store and think it is awesome. This isn’t a big space, but Amazon managed to create an interesting and different experience than what I encountered so far, by offer a variety of products in a compelling way that will generate you to shop via Amazon in one way or another.

The store is designed in sections that are inspired by the Amazon website. I loved that, and it felt very intuitive.

Amazon current customers will feel familiar with the store, while new customers will be able to learn about it, and it will generate them to become Amazon prime members.

I love that Amazon uses customer reviews in the physical descriptions to the products offered in the store.

As you can see in my video, there are several products that are rated less than 4-stars. I don’t think this is a deal-breaker, as reviews are constantly updating, but there were some products, such as the Amazon Fire 7 tablet that is sold for a long time and gained many reviews. But then again, this is an Amazon product.

There are many Amazon products all over the place in different sections. This is a bit exaggerated, but then again – this is a store that is supposed to promote Amazon, so this is logical. It seems to me there were many products by other brands, mostly smart devices, that works well with Alexa, and Amazon has interest to promote them as well.

The staff was kind and customer oriented, some were more knowledgeable while others less (this is relative, because as a reviewer I tend to ask specific questions).

I liked the payment method, in which you generate a QR code using the Amazon App, so you can pay via your account. Following the payment, the order will appear on your Amazon account under “items purchased on Amazon stores” tab. Though I asked in the store if I can write a review about items I purchased in the store, as of this moment, I don’t see this is possible.

When there’s a price/rating change, the products “Kindle” like display changes in real-time. This is awesome (I didn’t manage to get a shot of that… because it happens quickly & unexpectedly.) but I’m not sure what happens if the price changes while you want to pay for the products and the price might go up. I asked the staff about it, they said that the current price is the relevant one, even if it changed, but they might be able to do something about it.

I was told that the special deals section for the store is supposed to change every week.

I think the Amazon 4-star store is intended for certain visitors:

Those who are not familiar with Amazon – Mostly people who don’t have Amazon in their countries.

Those who fear to make the first step with Amazon – old people, very young generation, certain groups of people who are not tech-oriented etc.

Those who avoid on-line shopping – old people, people who don’t use credit card (“only cash”).

Those who cannot enjoy shopping on Amazon – mostly people who don’t have Amazon in their country.
