Don’t look for the Prime Day 2020 date be two months from now in the US. The deals may come in September, however.
The Amazon Prime Day 2020 date is reportedly in September, according to credible reports that suggests that Amazon will postponed its deals by two months.
Delaying Prime Day deals by one month makes sense: consumer facing an economic downtown won’t be in the mood for a lavish buying spree in July. But, if things start to go back to normal, there will be pent up demand to buy again soon after that.
Likewise, manufacturers need something like Prime Day 2020 to start making money again. Many goods are sitting in warehouses while essential goods are prioritized. No one wants to wait until Black Friday 2020.
Even if the Amazon Prime Day 2020 date is in September, we have a lot of questions: on what date or dates will it happen? What Prime Day sales are expected this year? Should you buy on Prime Day or wait until Black Friday?
We’re here to help answer those questions while official details are still in the offing.
The official Amazon Prime Day date is reportedly in September, although no one knows the specific date or, more likely, dates (it’s usually two days long). Well, maybe Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos knows.
Last year’s Prime Day deals lasted 48 hours, so there were two full days of discounts, and we expect something similar in 2020. Amazon has historically picked a Monday to start the deals and Prime Day usually runs through Tuesday.
If September is indeed the month, that leaves one of four choices for the start of Prime Day 2020:
We would have initially thought it would have happened on July 13, or possibly the week before on July 6.
As soon as we catch wind of the Prime Day 2020 date, we’ll be sure to update this page so you can prepare your Amazon wish list.
That seems to be the case, although, on the record, Amazon has only stated „Prime Day 2020 has not been announced,“ according to an Amazon.com retail page.
The shift from July to „at least August“ was reported by Reuters, and then the Wall Street Journal nabbed an exclusive that indicated September was the confirmed Prime Day date, with the official cause being the coronavirus outbreak. In some parts of the world, Amazon has been limiting the number of items it ships, often prioritizing essential goods.
But, keep in mind, having no Amazon Prime Day date is not out of the ordinary. The company doesn’t announce the date until mere weeks ahead of the kick off, when it teases a fraction of its deals list. So, even if it were earlier than September, we still wouldn’t know today.
