How does free 2 day shipping of an item ordered before lunch today, equal Oct 12th by 8pm?

Amazon is really getting shady with the shipping dates.

About half the shite I order, even when in stock, still takes 5 days or so. I know that before i place the order though.

Yea I canceled my prime membership because it was taking a bit longer than advertised.

My poor arse can wait a couple extra days on standard free shipping than pay the $100/yr or whatever

Reason why I didn’t renew my prime. Taxes + shipping isn’t worth it anymore.

Yes and I could pay 3.99 to have it tomorrow or if it was greater than $35, free one day shipping (which probably means Thursday by Amazon math).

How can one day shipping mean Tuesday or 2 day shipping mean Friday?

I would ask Amazon, but good luck finding anyway to contact a person.

Usually it shows that before you order, even if it's "Prime." "Prime" doesn't really mean anything anymore.

This item showed 2 day shipping but some how the days are 48 hrs each.

The product was likely out of stock

I ordered 7 items from them last week and all arrived within the 48hrs of ordering.

I've been saying this for a good while. In-stock item sold and shipped by Amazon, free 2 day shipping. (then says guaranteed delivery by day 3 or 4)

However, I will say the last few purchases have been truly 2-day delivery like it used to be. Hopefully that trend sticks.

If it isnt marked Prime when you ordered it, it isnt an item coming from Amazon fulfillment center.
