I don't get why Amazon shipping can be so bloody slow for 3rd party vendors. Some of the stuff I ordered months ago still has not arrived, ETA is in May some time. I knew that when I bought it and I'm not in a hurry, I just think it's ridiculous.

Ordered stuff from China a few weeks ago and got it today.

Yeah, it can be pretty slow sometimes.

I had a set of earbuds seemed to take forever once, I check the shipping time a lot before I buy things these days for that reason I guess.

Literally on a slow boat from China, some things 🙂

It's not? So how does that work? I thought 3rd party just meant it was through a 3rd party supplier and not the ones they normally go with, and basically not guaranteed by Amazon. Still though, I can't see why it would take so long when stuff through ebay is much faster even from China.

Only if it says fulfilled by amazon would it be amazon shipping

Interesting, how does this work then, are they basically acting like Ebay? Still odd how it would take so long to ship though, does it still go to Amazon first and then they ship it?

No amazon is basically providing everything, the seller just collects the diff between what amazon charges the seller and what the seller charges you.
