This NOT going to be a popular statement, BUT...
Amazon has delivered my last two orders on/before their stated delivery date estimate!
Noted, both were delivered by thier own Prime trucks. Still, I hope that performance is an indicator of days to come.

No complaints about USPS. Live on a Rural Route and have mail and packages delivered 6 days a week. If our packages are to large for our box they are then dropped off at the front door or we meet them as they pull in. Their mail route is 170 miles long each day and they never complain no matter the weather.

Same here,been at this address for 50 years, and have only had a couple of problems that were really due to bad packaging and not delivery problems.

Same here, but their route is nowhere near 170 miles. I'd guess 25.

Just had a missed Amazon delivery by Amazon, I think the truck was running late so my package got into Amazon Purgatory, returned for processing or something like that.
I was able to cancel and order a new one, so not all bad.

That happens most often from shipments I receive from sellers ON Amazon. Not very often from Amazon itself. It's happened with Amazon enough to count with fingers on one hand. I average close to one order a day and count on the stated delivery date. They totally miss the time but I generally get it the day promised. There have been numerous failures here though.
There have been troubling occasions where Amazon sends the package back to the origination because of damage but they make a good effort to replace it quickly. These are Amazon packages from other Amazon warehouses. I like that they catch these while in transit.
I just sent a damaged product back to one of Amazon's Return Centers. It was sent by a seller on Amazon. It was a heavy 2-piece product made of cast iron. One of the pieces was cracked and the shipping box looked like FedEx had it's hand in it but it was shipped by a private company (I don't remember the name). I got a new set within a few days with a zero charge.
