Goodwill is setting its sights on a formidable rival for a charity thrift store: Amazon.
The non-profit’s New York-area organisation has teamed up with Price.com to develop a browser add-on that alerts online shoppers at sites like Amazon.com Inc and Walmart Inc’s Jet.com when a product they’re looking to buy – say a mountain bike or a pair of shoes – is available on Goodwill’s website. Shoppers can then click a pop-up link to order the second-hand version shipped to them instead.
