My orders that ship from Amazon are taking 3-4 business days to ship out. If they aren't fulfilled by Amazon, they ship out next day. This is the opposite of how its always been.

Anyone else running into this?

stop using free shipper saver shipping or whatever its called. i order shit all the time from them and it comes 1 or 2 days after i order, and i pick the free 2 day shipping from prime. and yes it's guaranteed.

Does Prime guarantee expedited shipping?

Prime guarantees delivery within 2 business days, so the actual time to ship is as fast as you would expect to make that possible. As in, same day, or next day at latest.

Ok perfect.

Thanks for all the replies. I let Prime expire a while ago but I am going to pay up.

Can you stream Prime videos to Android yet?

Holy hell, obviously you aren't using amazon prime. Stop fighting it. Everyone in this thread without amazon prime should hit themselves in the head! Everything I'd 2 days for me.

Do not Prime; also do not need anything quick. I plan ahead and have things to myself or others within the week.

I'm going to invent a device that lets you read the entire thread before posting.

It will be my present to you!

I plan ahead; 2 days ahead. The problem is without prime you shop unnaturally. You are virtually forced to use super saver, which means no inexpensive items unless stacked with others. Further, knowing everything is a week out you are more likely to buy certain things locally, along with their higher cost, gas, and wasted time. $80 is a small price to pay to have the largest warehouse ever known to man accessible at the lowest prices anywhere in two days.

I did read it. You seem to have a hair trigger on taking things personally and getting immediately defensive. I have noticed that in other threads, too. Maybe you should think on why you are that way. That advice is my present to you.

Most oddball stuff I can't find in Canada, not even on Amazon, so I order off ebay. Sometimes it takes over 3 weeks for stuff to come in.

Tell me more about your amazon prime delay problems. :p

Black friday, cyber monday.

So far I've been good, but I know to order all my junk well before the 15th.

Things seem fine to me. I ordered something Saturday night and got it Monday afternoon with 2 day shipping, which is actually a day earlier than it should have been.
