Best Five Day Deals on Amazon Prime Day 2018 in July

The Amazon Prime Day 2018 just got concluded on July 16, 2018. As of 3:10 ET Prime Day was live. According to Bestblackfriday.com, when Amazon's massive 36-hour midsummer sale was happening, the official website was experiencing outages shortly after 3.00 PM EST. Although, the online retail behemoth restored the website now, nevertheless, the firm is likely to have lost solid money is what the report says.Citing Statistica, the report put the previous year's Prime Day sales at $2.41 billion. Hypothetically, if Amazon's Prime Day sales were flat from last year to this year (extremely unlikely, since it's 36-hour versus 30-hour and the holiday is growing rapidly), that would mean, the company might as well have lost at least $1,11,740.74 a minute ($2.41b /(2,160 minutes of Prime Day)). Now if Amazon Prime Day sales take the same 60% year over year sales growth that it did from 2016 to 2017 according to the Amazon Press Release for 2017 to 2018, we can extrapolate that Amazon was set to have sales this Prime Day off at least $3.85b. At $3.85b of sales over 36 hours, Amazon is losing $1,782,407.41 a minute being down ($3.85b / (2,160 minutes of Prime Day)).Heavy LossWhile this assumes a linear progression of sales throughout the entire event and doesn’t account for the surge in sales that likely occurs at the onset of Prime Day, it’s safe to assume based on Statistica’s sales information that Amazon was losing at least $1-2m a minute when the site and app were both completely down, according to the report.

Amazon Prime Day 2018 was on July 16, Monday and the sale started at 12.00 PM ET and ended the next day.
