Well, my experience with Amazon of late, including today, is you need to be very careful about the vendors you R purchasing from.

1)Some of the vendors are doing false advertising. As in, picture shows one size they are selling, which is smaller, the written details say it's a much larger size.

2)Some vendors are selling counterfeit of named brand products. Of course this is against Amazon's rules, but it happens. I purchased what I thought was the brand name. When I got it and used it, I immediately knew it was a knock-off.

Be very mindful and careful when placing orders on Amazon.

Nope. Nurses/restaurant workers/fire fighters/police and the list could go on and on and on and on. Just another example that while most get these days off, everyone does not.

Question! Was this an overnight air or 2-day delivery package? If not, I am shocked also.

And I was surprised to receive a box of Fiestaware at 4 pm yesterday. Good deal, ~~~~~.

Hello John,

I was referring to shippers like UPS, USPS and FedEx. It was the standard free delivery for Amazon Prime members which I believe is 2 day. I had assumed the parcel would be delivered tomorrow. A very pleasant surprise to see the package at my door since it's something I need.

Thank you for the info Skylands.

I ordered something Wednesday. I was supposed to get it Friday. When I didn't get it Friday, I thought maybe because Friday was a holiday - even though they told me I would get it Friday. Well, I didn't get it Saturday either. So much for Prime.

That's Amazon! Fastest delivery in the world. Lots of people work on Easter and every other holiday. When Amazon says 48 hour delivery, they mean 48 hours. Cool.

The few times I've ordered from Amazon I was pleased. This last week I ordered a book and when I checked my bank account I was charged double!? I'm not sure who I need to contact about it. I did hear on a radio show I was listening to about a month ago that Amazon would be delivering on Sundays now.

Contact Amazon customer service. Amazon is great about helping customers.

Just lately I've noticed some vendors who R not presenting their products in a truthful manner. Good luck

Oh sorry that happened. Was the seller Amazon or another vendor?

It was a Kindle. My husband's anniversary present - he lost his last one! It has been sitting in the next town since Friday night according to the tracking. Our anniversary is over in 5 1/2 hours lol

I must say in all my experience with Amazon Prime or any other company, I've never had a delivery on Sunday. They must have been running behind.

That has happened to me a few times recently. I've been thinking of canceling my prime. Why pay for something that I'm only getting sometimes, when it's supposed to be guaranteed for all times.

Wow...that is unexpected.

My mouse died and I ordered a new one, through Amazon, on Friday afternoon. The delivery date was supposed to be Monday (I have Prime), but I got it yesterday...Saturday, only about 12 hours after I'd ordered it!

I've had a delivery from Amazon on a Sunday not too long ago. It was their LaserShip service. I really don't much care for LaserShip since they sometimes deliver as late as 10 or 11PM and ring the doorbell when they drop off the package. Startling, to say the least, to those of us who are in bed by that time. I don't know too much about LaserShip and wonder if their drivers just set their own schedules. But Easter Sunday, Wow!

I love AMAZON never had a problem with anything I order from them. And when they say they are going to deliver something on a certain day. It gets delivered!
