Been using Quick for about a month or so out here in Cardales, I'd summarize the experience as expensive, little choice, but the scanning and payment work amazingly well (as in a fraction of a second). Certainly no substitute yet for a supermercado chino or a verduleria boliviana.

I saw one of these Amazon stores in California last month, and while it works for snacks and such, as Frank said, it's no stand in for a regular supermarket. Can it replace some Dia or Carrefour expresses? Sure, especially those next to office towers that close at like 18:00, but my POV has always been to have it as a supplement in regular grocery stores like Jumbo, let people scan stuff as they shop, then go to a kiosk at the exit, scan a QR code or something and pay, it'd really cut down on check out times, but I know Argentines love standing in line so perhaps it would be too counter intuitive.
