  Amazon.com “sends” Armenia somewhere to Middle East March 12, 2011 - 16:39 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - One of the popular online stores, Amazon.com included Armenia in the list of Middle East countries in its Shipping Cost sector, along with Iraq, Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and others. Apparently, Armenia, a participant of Eurovision song contest and a member of the European Council is viewed by the administration of the online store as an Eastern country. Georgia, however, was luckier, having been listed among European states. The issue here is not only the geography. Practically, the residents of Armenia, included into the list of Middle Eastern countries, have to pay more for the transportation as compared to “Europeans”. For example, delivery cost of a netbook to Armenia is set at minimum of USD53, while a delivery to Europe costs USD39.
