re: Amazon has officially become garbage

Prime shipping in my area really fell off hard about two years ago, it was a coin flip as to whether you would get it within a week.
I quit paying for prime a year ago but still buy things, just make sure to select the free shipping option that says it’ll take longer. In a lot of cases in arrives on the second or third day anyway.

Amazon had been garbage every since they primarily switched to third party sellers and no longer direct to consumer.
Cancelling prime is the first step,
Not sure how anyone trusts the majority of garbage they sell

I got a Walmart+ subscription through my credit card and I've been surprisingly impressed with the service. They are definitely beating Amazon on delivery.

Amazon really needs to do something about the Temuification of their vendors.
This is a valid gripe. But to the OPs point, I guess it matters where you live, but with a warehouse near us, we get most stuff the same day or the next.

Is your address clearly marked on your box and by your front door?
Amazon has never mis-delivered an order to me or from someone else to my address because only Helen Keller could not see my address.
I use amazon for convenience on only a small subset of items. Clothes on amazon? Trash. Random electronics? Trash.

Our local distribution center is 21 miles away and they often deliver overnight on orders placed late afternoon or early evening.
As to quality, I'm seeing a lot of "stores" for things I could buy direct from the seller (food, imported soaps, even appliance parts) that are tied into the Amazon delivery system. only direct from Amazon saves shipping costs and returns are much easier.
My husband has ordered tires from them because there was no local source. When one was lost shipping, they replaced it quickly, Others were just slightly wrong, exhang done easily.
For us it's at least a gallon of fuel each way to town, not to mention trying to find something in a store that said they had it when we phoned in advance. Only to get there and they can't find it either.
Fuel and wear and tare on the car and on us. We hate to waste time in traffic jams. Much less looking for something in a box store where (if it's there, they've misfiled it and will never find it ).

Dang. I got a delivery this morning 2 hours after it was placed. Great experience for me.

Same one as me pretty sure.
I haven't done any of the grocery add ons yet. I usually do Kroger pickup for that.

I think the issue is people rely on Amazon for too much shite, and then complain when service or quality drops.
Use it for the main needs and check vendors for quality and reviews, and it works great.
I am skeptical on Prime. I'm getting to where I dont see the value. Remember, it was created originally to SIGNIFICANTLY drop ship times and prices. Now, it all has gotten better and therefore makes prime not as essential. Not that prime regressed
