Amazon Shipping Is a Joke
Amazon’s big thing is promoting their free shipping. I mean, why not right? It makes it look like they are giving you something for free. If you’ve ever used it though it feels like they literally wait until nobody is doing anything else and then they finally decide to pack and ship your order.
So on Monday I placed my order for a PSP and a few games. I opted to pay the $7 for shipping because I figured it would actually speed up the process. Boy do I feel duped. My order was placed at 10am on Monday and my packages, of which there are 2, both didn’t even leave the warehouse until this morning. 2 full days to pack and ship an order? Are you kidding me?
I probably would have been better off using the free shipping option.
