Amazon's no longer any good at shipping, and Google's no longer any good at searching. What a terrible year to be a tech nerd.

Amazon's not good at shipping?

I don't like a lot of their business practices, but holy shit do they get stuff to my house fast and reliably. Most of the time, same or next day.

Nah last several times I ordered, I saw one date expected before I order. The next day the expected date changes and it takes a week to turn up. They've been trash for a while.

Sounds like maybe some areas are a lot better than others, and I happen to live in one of the good ones maybe

That's the exact reason I discontinued prime. The shipping rarely was on time. I dropped prime and didn't notice a change in shipping time. They advertise to you in hopes you'll forget or something and I'm sure a fair amount of people do.
