Free Prime Delivery

   / Free Prime Delivery #11  
I believe there are some items - costing very little - that need to be combined to get to a certain dollar amount to be delivered free.

Even Amazon won’t deliver a $.99 scotch tape dispenser for free.

I might be wrong but I believe there are 2 classes of listings.
Amazon owned and sold stock and vs. independent vendors selling their own merchandize on the Amazon website. (unlike EBay that only lists client's goods)

Back a while there was a lady selling OLIVE OIL that used Amazon.
She divulged all the fees involved and it became quite costly, I recall.
Warehouse fees, moving fees, stocking fees---you get the idea.

I.E.: otherwise said, Amazon competes with some of their vendors.

Shipping is a major problem across the board right now.

I e-mailed Amazon and complained that I was not getting 2 day Prime deliveries a while back. They explained that it is 2 day shipping from the time it is shipped. So, I've found most of the time, if is it sold and shipped by Amazon, it goes out within hours of receiving the order and comes in 2 "business" days. If it is a vendor selling on Amazon, and they are backed up and don't ship your order for a day or two, it won't deliver until 2 days after they process and ship it.

I ordered some things last Saturday that were sold by Amazon. The confirmation stated I'd receive the goods Tuesday. The goods came today, exactly 2 days after placing the order.

Yes, this is why when you go to confirm your order you may get different delivery dates. I recently had something coming from a vendor that Amazon estimated 5 days for, but the Vendor shipped it the very next day and I had it in 3 days from order.

I wasn't confused. People that think "free" shipping exists are confused.

I ordered a Harry Bosch book from Amazon. $7.99. Showed up on my front door one day later.

Barnes & Noble has same book in the store. $9.99. I can get sent to me in 5 days for $3.99 shipping.

Couldn’t find it anywhere else for less than $10.99.

Free Amazon Prime costs the consumer about $13 a month which for me would be a very lousy deal because I very rarely order from Amazon. A few months ago I ordered one of those battery booster pack things that had free shipping, the next month there was a $13 charge on my credit card for Amazon prime membership. So I spent about a half hour on the phone with Amazon customer service to get the charge refunded, they refunded the money but this month the $13 charge was on my credit card again so I spent another half hour on the phone again !
