A class-action lawsuit has been filed against the Israeli postal service for prioritizing the delivery of packages shipped by Amazon.
The $14.5 million lawsuit was filed against Israel Post on Sunday in the Haifa District Court, the business daily The Marker reported.
The lawsuit was filed by Mordechai Alon, the owner of an online auction business that uses Israel Post’s courier service. Alon alleges that delivery of his packages has suffered due to the priority placed on delivering Amazon packages, according to the Marker. Alon told The Marker there are about 100,000 business owners who have had similar problems with Israel Post.
Amazon’s tendency to push out competitors, including businesses that use Amazon to sell their wares has led to the rise of competing platforms that aim at bringing in disgruntled sellers. Companies such as Centera.co bring in merchants by pledging not to compete with sellers on their site and by refusing to blacklist merchants over faulty ASINs.
