Yup, agree. I know HN is not a complaint forum, but I’m starting to wonder why I still pay prime for 7 day delivery.

I have switched my pets’ orders to Chewy completely. Their deliveries have consistently been 2 to 3 days even over weekends.

We canceled our prime membership several months ago and have experienced zero difference in the delivery times or the benefits from Amazon. It makes me wonder what we were paying for before.

You’re paying for all the bundled crap like Prime Video, Music, Twitch, etc. You can actually be charged more for certain items as a Prime member as well, I guess they don’t need to attract you when you’re already a loyal Amazon customer.

Btw I had to cancel my Prime three times because it kept getting mysteriously reactivated with no action on my part.

7 day?? I get my orders almost always next day at the pickup machine. Even when it says it'll be there in a few days it's usually early.

In Barcelona fwiw

Ditto in Portland, except delivered to my door. It's interesting when these threads come up reading all these complaints, I buy stuff from Amazon on average a couple times per week and never have problems with counterfeits, used goods, not shipping speeds.

Here in Tokyo, it's almost always 2 days for me, and I don't have Prime membership. Sometimes it's even next-day.

It seems like it's only the Americans complaining about shipping speeds: probably a byproduct of the transportation network there being so bad and everything being so spread out. Their other problem is likely bad labor relations and a labor shortage.

Increasingly same day delivery in London.

same here, 1 or 2 on almost all prime orders. Of course I live pretty close to a shipping center, but I figure most americans did at this point.
