Dogue in teh desert
Lately I think Amazon.com is not quite what it once was. Sure they offer more now like same day shipping, music and movies but their two day shipping for prime is kinda going wonky, at least from third party sellers. Some are perfectly fine, reach me in two days with no issues and those usually arrive by UPS but then there's the Fed EX ones and they generally take 3 days but the thing is they originate with Fed EX tracking and then on the expected delivery date there is no update and it shows the item stuck in a warehouse three or four states away. On the third day it shows delevery as "Pending" which I'm begging to see just means headed to the post office for potentially another day delay.
Anybody else having this problem ? I think it's more to do with their using the p.o.s Fed EX and then either Fed EX is cutting corners and turning it into "smart post" or Amazon is cutting corners and choosing "smart post" except there is no indication of this on shipping.
Ther latest example is that I ordered a coffee mug and a pound of coffee from Amazon, both third party sellers and both offered free two day delivery wherein I was in the time frame for same day shipping. One item came yesterday as expected , delivered by UPS. The other item is by Fed EX (this is now about the third time in a row I have a late one from Fed EX ) I am still in "pending" mode.
Finally it seems Amazon third party sellers ALWAYS email you the day after deliver asking/reminding you to leave a review
Not so sure I wanna continue prime if they keep this crap up....give me the advertised two day shipping like in the past and quit soliciting me for reviews
What are youyr experiences with Amazon lately ?
