Home Depot had it…so why Amazon won’t? 3D-printed goods at your finger tips!

Amazon is touting this as the debut of a new immersive way of online retail.  The recently launched store features items that can be customized to change their size, color, material and even aspects of their design. The store covers a range of types of products, including jewelry, electronics, toys and games, home decor and kitchen supplies, and items are supplied by a number of partners including Mixee,Sculpteo and 3DLT.

The introduction of the store does indeed mark a potential turning point in the sale of online goods – it means the largest online retailer in the English-speaking world is endorsing a means of direct production and selling that could change how future products are conceived and planned.

As of now, Amazon’s 3D Printing Store only sells a set catalogue of 3D-printed item and consumers cannot upload a custom design yet. But who knows!Maybe in the near future!
