Amazon.com shipping

What happened to Amazon? I ordered three books and it takes them 2 weeks to ship it out?

But apparently they can ship it out the next day if I want to pay for next day shipping. What is up with that?

Every other web company ships within 24 hours, Amazon used to be like that right? The worst part is that they states that the books I ordered usually ships within 24 hours!
 
This is prime college book buying time. This and Christmas are probably their busiest times of the year.

That's if you get "Standard Shipping."

Super Saver shipping is just that - free; but they take their sweet time getting the order fulfilled.
 
I always get the cheapest shipping and they always ship it next day. Suckers. My harry potter actually came before some of the people who paid for the most expensive shipping.

Yeah, they don't really make that clear do they... plus it's not good business. I don't mind them shipping with a lower class postage or whatever, USPS... but at least get it out of the warehouse quick.

We studied Amazon's logistics in college, it's not really that manual of a process. They can get the things shipped out and it'll boost customer satisfaction.
