The longest Ive had something say it would take to get here is a month. Sometimes they came a bit sooner. With how messed up our postal service in this area is, its wait and see right now.

I've never seen it on a first party product from Amazon, only 3rd party sellers and the only time I saw something that long was when it was coming from outside the country during the start of the pandemic.

you always have to check the expected delivery, especially when getting a decent discount. there have been several times i've almost bought something, only to see the expected delivery isn't for weeks or months later, ok?

I've never ordered electronics in the middle of a global microchip shortage, so no, I've never had that problem.

"In Stock. Place order now to receive item by [insert date less than a week away]."

Place the order. Wait. Receive email two days before original projected date for your order.

"Package will arrive on [new date five or six days away]."

<_<

On the flip side, a few years ago, I once ordered something through Amazon that was solely from a vendor in England. Amazon's estimated time was about a month, but the package arrived in well under a week. Actually, faster than anything American-based via free (non-Prime) shipping.

I ordered a replacement keyboard for my laptop from China and it got stuck in the early corona transportation jam there. Sat in some warehouse in Shanghai for months.

I went to order an input splitter for my headset and they said it wouldn't ship for a few months, went to the store and got one off a shelf instead
