Flipkart seems to be the weaker one against Amazon and Snapdeal - it could be the one to fall

Increasingly, Flipkart isn't able to serve my online shopping needs [link 1, link 2]. I visit it only to check prices, but it increasingly isn't able to convert me into a buyer. I'm a frequent online buyer, and I buy from several places - Snapdeal, Amazon, Pepperfry, Jabong, Myntra, etc. I have a pretty good feel of which website has what strengths and weaknesses. It increasingly appears to me that Flipkart is weak when it comes to making me click the Buy button.

  2. There seems to be a competition going on between Snapdeal and Flipkart about which one is going bust first. In the last few weeks, almost everything that I needed was shown as "out of stock" on Snapdeal. A sort of meltdown, it appears.
