I don't know about you, but when I order it CLEARLY tells me the expected delivery of EVERY item. If you don't like it, change the shipping or cancel the item. Sometimes even though it says "Prime" it takes longer to ship. I seem to remember the user agreement saying something like "most items ship in two days". |

Just because something has a Prime logo it doesn’t mean you get it in two days. It just means it’s Prime eligible. A lot of third party sellers can’t don’t offer prime shipping and again if something isn’t in stock it isn’t shipping until it is. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Most of my Amazon deliver problems are because they started using USPS and mail person doesn't like to deal with my packages. Anything that is UPS no problem, Fedex varies but is good most of the time.
Talked to postmaster (small town), she said Amazon drops of pallets of packages that they have to delivery for very low cost. |

Good for you OP. You determined that Prime was not what you expected and you cancelled.
I, on the other hand, LOVE Prime. I place 140 orders in 2016. I placed 100 orders in 2017. Can't remember the specifics for 2016 but for 2017, 3 Prime orders did not arrive within 2 days. However, ~ 4 orders arrived the next day. I have even started receiving Saturday delivery in my area for no extra cost. I appreciate the large selection of items that Amazon has for sale w/many of them Prime eligible. I appreciate that many/most of the items are competitively priced. I appreciate that Prime ships orders under $25 for free. I appreciate the video and music streaming that is included. Prime, like most things in life, is not perfect. If perfection is your requirement, you are destine to be disapointed a lot in you life. |

Has to be Prime eligible. It says in the description. I ordered 3 items last night that were about 12.00. Got charged 6.00 for shipping, no tax. Items were not prime eligible. I ordered license plate lights, car decals and a 2.00 box of masks. That was the first time I paid shipping since getting prime a few months ago.

I think Amazon certainly has their part in the slipping of 2 day shipping, I think USPS has been pulling some shady shit with Amazon orders. I have several times been actively waiting for an order and had tracked it, showing as delivered, only to show up with USPS the next day. If something says "delivered" and it's not delivered my assumption is that it was stolen. I heard about this happening and it just happened to me. USPS claims it was delivered 4 days before it was actually delivered. |

This past year about 35% of our Prime orders have failed the "guaranteed" delivery date. We are getting ready to cancel as well. Be sure to call in when that happens and they will compensate you, only way they will learn to fix it. They acknowledged to me they've been having problems.

My biggest complaint is items advertised with the Prime logo, then when you go to check out it's "Free shipping for prime members" and takes two weeks to arrive.
They shouldn't be using the prime logo for items that don't ship with two day shipping. |
