    Has anyone become more frustrated with Prime recently? At least three times recently I have ordered "prime" items on a Sunday afternoon or Sunday evening and they haven't arrived until Thursday.

    Sorta, sometimes. I ordered 2 pairs of boots yesterday and both said they would arrive Friday. This morning they shipped with one saying arriving Monday.

    Been running in to stuff like that, too. Items don't ship until the second day after I ordered, then take an extra day to arrive with two-day shipping.

    Opposite for me. I'm getting more and more things the day after I order them. But, there's a massive Amazon fulfillment Warehouse 20 minutes from my house, so that helps.

    I've had issues when FedEx or UPS starts out with the item and then it gets switched to USPS. Always results in a one day delay.

    Yea, IF I have a delay, it's when USPS gets involved.

    We have a distribution center near here, by Milwaukee, so like an hour away. It's weird, I have just noticed it lately that stuff hasn't been the whole two-day thing.

    What do Austin and Miami have in common with Seattle that the others don’t? Can you elaborate?

    Y'all do know if you don't receive your package within 2 days you can message Amazon and they'll credit your prime membership right?

    I had a string of packages that didn't arrive as planned and basically got like 3 months free because of it.

    Just curious, what is the quality of the music streamed via Amazon? I subscribe to Amazon Unlimited. Is the quality on Spotify better? Are neither/both lossless? Are there better options that work with Echos?

    I did this for awhile, because every single thing I ordered was taking 4-5 days. They'd just send me an update that the delivery date had been changed.

    Now when I call and say it's supposed to take 2 days. They say that's delivery time only, not shipping and shipping could take as long as necessary. And act like I'm an idiot for not knowing the difference between shipping time and delivery time. But they still give me a refund. I'm guessing they'll be rewording the "2 day" policy sooner than later.

    Man, I would clean up if they offered that deal for H-E-B.

    10% discount isn't nearly enough to get me to go to Whole Foods though.

    ordered something 6 days ago via prime, only got an email today that it's delayed

    how do I get a refund while the package is still in transit? or do I need to wait until it's finally delivered?

    they are understandably not transparent at all with how to contact them
