Last 3 orders have all come in later than two days. When I say something to customer support, they just tell me it will be there in the next two days and to wait on it.

Like, I know Amazon wants to act like I pay 80 bucks a year for Prime for their streaming service. But I don't. I could really give two shits for their streaming stuff right now.

They need to get their shit together.

Later than two days?

My last order was placed on September 28, was "processing" until October 12 and finally arrived on October 17.

Sure, it was technically 5 day standard shipping... but holy fuck why did it take so long?

By the time I received the game, the online multiplayer was kinda dying down too

I had Prime a few years ago and I felt it was pointless. The majority of my orders took longer then they were supposed to. Quite a few games I ordered for release date delivery arrive three days after release and the ones that didn't usually arrived a day after release. I got some extra free prime membership but I didn't bother renewing it.

Dead enough in less than a month to really note it? Sounds like bad multiplayer anyways.

Yeah, I won't be renewing to Prime. I've had more problems with my deliveries this past year than I had for the last 7 years combined. Orders late, saying they're delivered when they're not, delivery men leaving them in nonsensical hiding spots. Why am I paying a premium for such a service when Ebay does 2-day shipping often for free?

Make sure they are ordered from Amazon and not a 3rd party supploer, despite having the prime logo.

They're great to me. I ordered some formula but didn't need it and tried to cancel it. It had already processed so it got shipped. I told them what happened and if they could do anything, since formula isn't something they accept returns for. They told me that they will just credit my account for the full amount and I don't have to ship it back to them. Pretty awesome customer service.

they need to fix the policy of 2 day shipping if it takes 3 or more days :(.
it's unacceptable unless its weather related it's understandable.

It started September 15. Possibly 18th. I cant remember.

I read UPS was on pace to ship a billion packages between then and Christmas.

Thats crazy. People are just not shopping irl any more.

In the 3 years I've had prime I've only had a 2 day thing come late a few times.

However I never preorder new release games from them either.

In my case it's worth it, I buy so much shit from there that I save far more than paying for shipping all the time.

TC you gotta learn to argue with customer service more. A couple weeks ago, they were giving me the same shit but I eventually talked them down to giving me 65% off, and then it ended up arriving the next morning. That's a win right there.

And prime is worth it. Free upgraded 2 day shipping, audiobooks, kindle, unlimited photo storage, amazon tv

If you manage to snag a price that's significantly lower than retail, Amazon will blueball you until you give up.
Anyone who bought crazy-cheap Lego Dimensions sets can confirm this.

In my experience, Prime's free two-day shipping is worthless when there's no guarantee on when their shit actually leaves the warehouse.

Yeah I live in an area where same-day shipping is offered, but the actual list of items that qualify is so low that it might as well not even exist.
