I've been a Prime subscriber for years now, and have recently been reconsidering my membership. The free 2-day shipping now frequently means 2-day free to the local post office. Once there, it's usually another couple of days before it gets to me (and my office is literally next door to local post office). Not cool, Amazon.
- hershel 13y agoyou should check if there are Amazon lockers in your area or lockers from other companies you can receive packages in, so you could pickup the stuff yourself.
- IbJacked 13y agoI don't think there are, or at least I've never heard/seen any around. I do, however, receive UPS shipments almost daily, and scheduled daily pickups. It seems weird that they let the US Post Office make the final leg of the delivery, when the destination is literally next door. I understand the reason behind it, it's just odd from a human perspective.
- jmccree 13y agoHave you mentioned this to amazon? I had a book a few days late and amazon overnighted me another one and told me to keep the other one when/if it arrived. Their customer service is rather decent in my experience.
- IbJacked 13y agoYou're right, I should mention this to Amazon, not the folks here :) I have otherwise received good service from them, which keeps me coming back. If I cancel my Prime membership, I will continue to use Amazon pretty much the same way.
