What the original OP said about German parcel services was wrong anyway. Even standard DHL packages in Germany are delivered the next day 95% of the cases. It's just that Amazon pays DHL extra money that they guarantee next day delivery. It's just that Amazon can tell their customers that the shipment will arrive on a certain date. However, as I said, since 95% of DHL standard packages arrive on the next day in Germany anyway, there is no point trying to scandalize Amazon's prioritized treatment (which they also pay for, btw).
