Amazon delivery times

0rion said

We have prime but it's really hit or miss when things get delivered. I get it that there's alot going on but to my knowledge I haven't seen anywhere Amazon is saying they'll refund prime fees....has anyone else seen anything on that? I was going to order a gaiter today because I wear one hunting and am more comfortable in that than a mask. Every one I liked had a mid June delivery date.

While I'm on the delivery subject I'm gonna rant a second on Fed ex. By far the worst of all delivery options for us. I hate seeing something I ordered shipped fed ex. I have truck speakers coming. When I ordered it had a Thursday delivery date.....it's sat in Columbus for 2 days now with tracking saying "package not due for delivery". So because it had a Thursday date they're gonna let it sit in a warehouse until then.

If you use your Amazon card you’ll notice points on it. Those are there because of this. When you notice a June delivery, that’s more because suppliers are out and running so far behind. It’s not so much that amazon is sitting around on their butts. Amazon quite honestly is between a rock and a hard place. They rely on suppliers that may or may not have their stock being shipped on time. I do know that certain things are prioritized then other things are done. Also, they are terribly short staffed between workers not coming in and the massive increase in volume. They’ve hired what 150,000 people the last month and a half.

I’ve had pretty good luck though. I mean things I’ve paid attention to have come well before the estimated date. But, it’s not just Amazon. Everywhere I order from has been slower than dirt as they redo procedures and such.
