Amazon one day shipping for prime members worse than before?

4 years 11 months ago #644457 by ArtWagner
IMO Amazon is unparalleled most of the time.  But the recently moved from 2 day free shipping for prime members to 1 day and I have had 2 packages just full on late, like they didn't get here till the 3rd day.  Anyone else experience this?

I've had no problems with delivers on my end.  Well not in the last 2 years.  Actually the only problem I've had was one of my boxes back in 2017 had a little damage to the box.  However I don't think that had nothing to do with Amazon.  Just FedEx.

It depends on what time you're making the purchases and the "Handling time", or, what they now call "processing". Shipping time doesn't include those. That might be what's happening. Ever order from a clothing store like Nordstrom? Sears? 2-3 business days for processing on top of your shipping. I think we have become quite comfortable. lol So you pay for 2 day shipping and it STILL takes a week or more.

It also depends on if the item is sold BY Amazon.  It can still be a Prime item, but sold by someone else.

If it's labeled "Prime" we've now been trained to assume it will arrive within 2 days (-ish). Of late, that doesn't always happen.
