Amazon Prime 2-day shipping scam

[highland145]

as my previous posts say, i ordered it on the 25th at about 10:40 AM EST. They took over 24 hours to process and ship it. i can understand this if i'd ordered it after 2 PM or 4 PM. but 10:40 AM and you can't ship it that afternoon? Really?

This is the reason I order from Amazon is because they tell you when the cut off time is on prime items. Same with B&H Photo.

I would easily pay extra to be able to choose my shipping provider on Amazon like B&H Photo lets you do.

Sears shipping in the 70's....months. STFU, whiners.

I know someone who was able to get Amazon Prime for $50 which is well worth it.

And it didn't work. Must be the Christmas catalog that gives me the warm fuzzies about Sears.

Ha, when you're poor and the whole book is an option (pie in the sky), go balls in, baby, balls in.:biggrin::biggrin:



And then reality set in, reduced to a page or less. Of shit that was months late or didn't work. Fucks.

We have a betting thread if you'd like to guess more.

Many of my Prime UPS > USPS packages get delivered on Sunday. Plus, with the $20/40 dongle, you get Prime Video.

That is the only advantage of USPS.

I'm confused. I am experiencing something strange with my Prime account. I know its Wednesday night so let's consider any order I place tonight as being placed on Thursday morning.

Yet, when i select an item that Amazon is selling directly (vinyl), the Free Two Day shipping, that is the base of Prime, says Monday for a delivery date. Did they just change something to eliminate weekend deliveries--I just got one last Sunday!

Color me confused, but Thursday-->Friday-->Saturday should be the delivery date, and Monday would be 4 days on an in stock item that Amazon is selling directly to a residential address.

I canceled the order, logged out and then back in and tried again but getting the same thing. I guess Amazon thinks I can't count days. LOL

Can you link the item your trying to buy ?

The most likely reason is because it will ship Thursday morning and take until Monday to deliver is because it will be using UPS!

Sure. Duffy, Rockferry vinyl. Notice the date of Friday for Prime? That changes to Monday, 22nd, when I log in and Proceed to Checkout. I even checked my Prime Membership (could through March).

Yet when I am at checkout the Free Two-Day deliver says Monday--as if no more weekend deliveries.

I am about to try it.

Makes no difference to me what carrier they employ. Two Day Delivery is NOT Monday. This isn't an item coming from an Amazon partner, but Amazon directly. Do they consider vinyl too delicate to have the USPS scum touch it?

 

[pcslookout]

Ok mine says "Guaranteed delivery: Feb. 19, 2016 If you order in the next 3 hours and 23 minutes"

Where are you from ? Must have to do with location.

It would if you lived in a gated community.

I do not live in a gated community. I am in Atlanta suburb and Amazon has made plenty of USPS, UPS and FedEx deliveries on the weekend.

UPS doesn't deliver on weekends.

I emailed them letting them know I tried twice to order it with Prime and it failed thus canceling the orders. I just got HR Block tax s/w delivered by USPS last Sunday and a pair of Western Digital products delivered by UPS on Saturday. No idea why this would happen although it is my first vinyl order attempt.

 

[BarkingGhostar]

Hmm, UPS doesn't deliver on the weekends but they do on bank holidays? I say this because they were in my 'hood on Monday when the USPS was closed.
