Ordered from Amazon right after noon yesterday and package was delivered before 6 p.m. 

 

Cost $3 extra, but when you run out of dog treats, it is worth it!

Isn't that the truth.  I do the same.  My girl gets her treat when we go to bed and she sits there waiting.  Spoiled, but that is what loving them does to us.  Not spoiled, but loved.

That's why I love Amazon.  I ordered a pack of 24 washcloths and a 100 pack of Crystal Light yesterday around 3pm.  They just delivered my items a half hour ago.  I have Prime so no delivery charge.

They certainly have this dialed down.  I've only been with Amazon since 1999, but my experiences have been good with them and their customer service over the years.

 

Any delivery problems were more carrier-related than anything.

 

One cool thing with their own Amazon delivery service is that they take a picture of the parcel on your porch and email it to you with their delivery notice.

 

Recently, I had an Amazon delivery with their service and I went to grab it after I got the email.  Well, imagine my surprise when  there was nothing there.  I went back to the email to see the pic and noticed that it was not my porch but did look like a neighbor's porch.  I headed over there and, yup, they had received my parcel.

 

You also have the opportunity to rate the delivery so I always do that.  Takes a few seconds and I think it's worthwhile.  Usually, they are good after I had to contact them with an issue when they delivered a 40# plus parcel to the middle of my long driveway.   I was really distressed because that is more than I can lift so I had to push it to my house, up the step, and into the house.  So I called and asked if there can be delivery instructions like they have at UPS and others.  She put 'leave at front door and ring bell'.  Since then it's been great so I always respond to the email and let them know that.

I love, Amazon. My entire family is on the Prime account. Just had three deliveries a while ago.

 

I always check the pictures first. Don´t know why and I always leave a good review.

 

Last week I ordered an 18fl oz of Aveeno Lotion. It arrived and I looked at the picture before I went downstairs to get it. Looking at the picture, I knew something was wrong. The package was too flat. Got it, and of course it was empty. The envelope was cut on a slant and wasn´t able to be sealed properly. Of course the driver wouldn´t know what it should contain.

 

Anyway, called Amazon and received my lotion the following day.  My cousin thinks we spend at least 1,000 a month at Amazon and sometimes it´s more.

 

Sometimes I feel guilty when I don´t receive exactly what i ordered and they say to ¨keep it¨ and send out the right item the following day. That´s Amazon.

Love Amazon!  I order more and more from Amazon...less and less from my usual places. Better price...faster shipping...easy returns...a customers DREAM.

Living in a rural resort community, Amazon Prime is a lifesaver.  Usually spend a minimum of $500 monthly.  Been with them for 16 years and never had a big issue and I love making returns to local UPS store.
