I love this move by Shopify. As a merchant (in Canada, where typical shipping prices are extortionate) I'd love to give Shopify more money (but presumably less than we pay 3rd party shippers) for better overall delivery service for my customers.
As a buyer, I'd love to spend more with not-Amazon and get comparable service.
I'm increasingly disappointed with Amazon. It's full of knockoff crappy products with unrelated 5 star reviews. That eroding trust in Amazon is pushing me to smaller brands who have a face and stand behind their product for key purchases. This move by Shopify will just accelerate that transition away from Amazon.
Just waiting for the search bar to shop every Shopify store so I have a viable alternative to Amazon to buy whatever I need.
