I'm just glad I'm not doing route 6 this week.

That route normally has two hampers FULL of boxes and parcels. Most routes only have one and a lot of times your hamper is only half full.

Tomorrow I bet he has FOUR.

It works like this. I order shit, and it's on my porch in 2 days.

I'm finding the 2 day thing almost never happening - and I too am a member. This is with prime eligible items, so I'm not sure the issue.

I've been on there today. Got the 4k FireTV for $34.95 I paid more than that for my Firestick. I also got the Moto 4x phone for $199 for my daughter. I have had a hard time getting around the site. Search function is pretty much useless and the FireTV was showing sold out for awhile. But, I got what I wanted. Still hoping to get a deal on a sound bar, but that's about it.

Really? I've only had a prime item not arrive in 2 days. It got misdirected. I called Amazon to find out when it would be here and they gave me a $5 credit.

Agreed. They want to become the only retail option and that can’t happen.

yeah for example - I ordered some 3" painter's masking-tape on Saturday Morning - it is scheduled to be here on Wed.

That will never happen. People will always need and want something instantly at wal mart, target, etc....

I sometimes get next day. Always get 2 day. Maybe because there is a big distribution center in Tampa? But, I’d bet they got one of those in your city too.

Is UPS shipping the things that are late? I've had a few issues in the past several months with the USPS handoff and other shitty shipping companies..... it's frustrating that they not only increased the cost to $120, but are now using cheaper and shittier services that can't deliver on time (and in one case completely lost an item).

Supposedly, you can complain and get a month free of Prime or something similar.
