I ordered a small item from Ebay on June 21 and received it on June 22.

I couldn't believe it when I saw it on my porch.

I ordered fidget spinners from the west coast (I'm on the east coast) and they arrived in 2 days.  I also ordered some from Amazon and Amazon took 3 days (and the shipper was on the east coast).

 

Sometimes Priority Mail actually works better than UPS.

That happened to me once.  Turned out the shipper lived in the next town.

I had a fast shipping experience this week, too. I ordered some bras from Dillards at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday. At 10:00 the next morning they were on my doorstep. I couldn't believe it!!! Another interesting part of this was that I tried to order the items a couple weeks ago but they did not have my size in the color I wanted. I was told they would let me know via email when they got more inventory. And that I would receive free shipping on the order if I placed it within seven days of getting the notification that the item was back in stock. That's exactly what happened. Not only did I get free shipping but my order arrived in 19 hours. WOW!

I have ordered many items off of ebay and super fast ship is wonderful.

 

I recently had to cancel an order. i ordered it on sunday , waited 1 week nothing, waited another 3 days before I sent a note to seller, cancelling the order. don't know why the hold up,she got back to me within 1 hour when i told her to cancel the original order.

 

I am also waiting on 1 order that was shipped but still has not arrived yet.

I love ebay!  Ordered items arrive quickly and most sellers are willing to work with you if there is a problem.  There always seems to be many choices of whatever you're looking for and several have free shipping. It's a win win!!

I purchased a brand new camera on ebay at a savings of $60 off even Amazon's price. It was shipped free and received in 3 days. No complaints!

How can you say it's E-Bay?   It's the seller that actually packs it and mails it via the post office, if you don't pay immediately (and a lot of people don't), of course the service won't be fast.

 

Shipping is expensive as a seller using E-Bay so of course some sellers are willing to eat those costs but there's a point why even bother selling on E-Bay, E-Bay takes a cut once a month and the shipping takes a bite of it too.

@Just Bling, of course, you're right,  I should have praised the vendor on E bay.  The vendor is the one who shipped it quickly.
