Amazon S-L-O-W shipping

[TomK]

Obie's experience is similar to mine. If I order something from Amazon Prime it generally arrives on time or even earlier. There have been the odd times items arrive a day or too late but from the tracking info that's almost entirely due to the USPS. And Amazon tells me about it. I had one problem in the last few months when they sent the wrong thing, I complained, and they sent the correct item and I didn't even have to send the wrong item back.

The rare occasions things arrive really late or not at all are always with Amazon partners.

I also don't know anything about the "Amazon doesn't charge for items until they ship" agreement. If you could provide a link to that, terracore, I'd be interested. I always get a notification from my credit card company immediately after ordering something on Amazon saying my card was charged without me being present.
