Again, missing my point.
Why is it 10 calendar days for delivery?
The items - two of them- were all in stock.
All fulfilled by Amazon.
I care that the 10 calendar days was deliberately manipulated.
It was artificial.
Were the items in stock in the NJ warehouses or was it in the Seattle warehouse where they put it on a truck to NJ and then shipped out?
If you were Prime they may have used UPS 2 day from Seattle instead of moving them to NJ and then shipping them out.
Why can't I make assumptions or opinions?
Isn't this a message board for discussion?
And other people's assumptions are that Amazon is not manipulating the shipping, they do all prime and people that paid for fast shipping first, and then do all non-prime shipping. I would not be surprised if Amazon had a "must ship by" internal date on orders and as long as your order is before that date and there are other prime orders to fill, the order gets pushed back. I do not believe that amazon has an "If not prime delay shipping until date". Amazon wants as many customers as possible and if they could get everything delivered in two days they would do it, but with their volume they cannot do it, so the non-Prime users get pushed to the back of the line, and continually let Prime customers cut in front.
My personal Prime experience is that if I order on Monday before about 2pm I receive the package on Wednesday.
