Wait, is the two-day shipping taking forever happening for everyone? I thought it was just because I moved to Alaska. It takes 2-4 weeks (and doesn’t show up about 10-20% of the time) for anything, but Walmart and Target stuff gets here in less than a week.

LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months agoAre you even getting two-day shipping anymore? I canceled Prime last year because my non-Prime items were arriving well before my Prime ones, with Prime sometimes taking two weeks.
With their sucky shipping, having to navigate a minefield of cheap trash-tier products, and now their video service getting riddled with ads – I think if Amazon were just being introduced to the world in its current state, no one would even use it. We’d consider it a joke.
All Amazon has going for it anymore is that it’s known and people use it out of habit.

I used to get it in 2 days here in South Dakota, but around 2020 or 21 it started taking progressively longer, until it was actually slower than normal shipping times.

3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:
- Counterfeits. Can get the items direct for same price & shipping now anyways.
- Shipping so unreliable.
- My “new” items were quite often repackaged returns, usually missing parts.

That’s how enshittification works - they lure you in with too good to be true promises & then slowly fuck you over year after year to increase profit.
