Say hi: DM or kate.conger@nytimes.com.
A few people claimed yesterday that Amazon never made commitments about "essential" goods. This is what you see when you visit Amazon's homepage right now.pic.twitter.com/dEM3Ht9Akr

It's not clear to me that a shut down of non-essential items ever happened. Warehouse workers have recently said they've processed watches, prom dresses, toys and all kinds of non-essential items:https://www.wsj.com/articles/amazon-seeks-to-hire-another-75-000-workers-11586789365 …

There’s no shortage of things to criticise Amazon for, but I definitely think toys are essential items — it would be cruel to expect children (many already distressed by lockdown) to cope without things to occupy their time. It’s v hard to define a strict “non-essential” category

super hard to define! I imagine that may be part of the rollback of the policy but don’t know for sure.

Were they actually supposed to be shut down -- or just shifted to lower-priority shipping? Seems like the latter is happening.

Like another commenter below, I read this as Amazon saying that third party stuff would be deprioritized. I don't have children, but if Jeff Bezos could come over and stick a pin in the basketball the child next door has spent the last month dribbling 24/7...

yeah, I think the policy and rollout have been super confusing. I also have a basketball kid as a neighbor and all I am saying is that he better end up in the NBA after all of this is over!

mostly seemed like an excuse to deprioritize third party items and push Amazon’s own catalog of junkhttps://www.thedailybeast.com/amazon-stops-accepting-non-essential-products-from-sellers-amid-coronavirus-crisis …
