Condoms, Horse Heads, Handcuffs and 11 Other Things Amazon Will Now Deliver in an Hour

New Prime app promises weirdness without the wait

Amazon's whole mission is to get people what they want as fast as possible, a pledge the retailer took to an extreme new level with today's debut of a one-hour delivery service.

Amazon Prime Now, a standalone app, currently only delivers to select parts of Manhattan, and it has a limited catalog ranging from groceries and office supplies to clothing and tools. So when you can't wait more than an hour for, say, coffee filters, a dust buster, a pair of socks or a hole puncher, Amazon will quickly get it all to you.
