mail-order 的词源
mail-order(adj.)
1875年,源自 mail(名词1)+ order。在电视和互联网普及之前,这对零售商和店主来说简直是噩梦。
The origin, foundation and principle of mail order trading is universally recognized as wrong. It was conceived in iniquity and brought forth in despair as the world's greatest destructive medium. Mail Order Trading was born in the brain of knaves and thieves who fired their building for insurance profits, then sold the salvaged and damaged stock to the unsuspecting sons of man in distant territory. [Thomas J. Sullivan, "Merchants and Manufacturers on Trial," Chicago, 1914]
邮购交易的起源、基础和原则被普遍认为是错误的。它是在不公中孕育而生的,作为世界上最具破坏性的媒介而诞生。邮购交易是在一些奸诈小人和盗贼的脑海中诞生的,他们为了保险利润而纵火焚烧自己的建筑,然后将 salvaged 和 damaged 库存卖给远方毫不知情的人们。[托马斯·J·沙利文,《商人和制造商受审记》,芝加哥,1914年]
