Not in my experience. Ordered some Christmas presents before Thanksgiving last year. All Prime items in stock (they offered 1-day delivery if I signed up), advertised 5-7 day delivery and still took 3 weeks.

Some (not many) vendors are better than Amazon.

Seems to depend on your area and how many warehouses are nearby. Up until the Corona issue, it was extremely unusual for me to have to wait more than a day for my ordered items. Frequently, I qualified for same-day delivery.

hmmm......next weekend fontana dam weather is 82 and 79 with light chances of rain (everyday this time of year)

Between Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio there is no reason any warehouse in-stock item should take more than a day or two to deliver. But they give priority to Prime customers, which means customers like me experience ridiculous shipping.

I have two prime accounts. My personal one, and for some reason, work signed me up for a business prime membership. Never used that one though.

Happy Monday! It is raining off and on here today. No reported cases of COVID-19 in my county but testing is all but nonexistent. I don't think more than 400 people have been tested statewide and Phoenix metro area has about 7 million people.

Spent yesterday re-tightening every screw on the enclosed trailer. A few were lose but for the most part they were all still tight and snug.

Off to work, ya'll be safe!

Amazon can suck my big fat sillyhole

I had Prime for years; got rid of it in 2018. What good is it anymore? And why would I pay $80/yr for it?

The video and music suck compared to other streaming services that I already have access to. The marketplace is a mess. And I don't order crap from Amazon often enough to make the shipping benefits worth it. I use Amazon reviews for information and entertainment. These days I can go elsewhere for a better product or the same product at the same price or cheaper.
