Amazon Shipping Speed
« on: April 05, 2020, 11:11:41 AM »
I ordered some essential stuff last week and it says arriving April 21. I was hoping when I ordered last week that they are just writing a late date but it will actually ship sooner however it still didn't update anything.

Is there anything to do? Does calling / chatting help?

I ordered something that was supposed to arrive April 17, shipped and fulfilled by amazon (Prime)(not an essential item), ended up arriving April 3.

ther dis no official way to expedite but if it’s a 3rd party shipping, then you can contact seller and convince them/ with good reviews or be creative with your story as to why they should prioritize your order.

Was that a one-off, or that seems to be the case for most non-essential items?

I ordered something that was supposed to come April 20, now it says April 8. Seems they are overestimating everything and then shipping things earlier when possible.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

I had the same thing except it got delivered together with another essential item. Also so far whatever essential items I bought came 1-2 days earlier than promised.

If it's a third party shipping it wouldn't have a 3 week handling time.

Amazons FC are working on very limited capacity, if its shipped by the seller it shouldn't take more than 2 days with SFP and about a week + with standard  shipping
