Something interesting to note about Amazon.com and their delivery times. Here is my experience.
If you order free shipping, Amazon.com states that you will receive your package in seven to ten days. Not too bad. If you order a more expensive shipping service, you’ll get your order more quickly. I’ve found that what Amazon.com really does is just slow down the processing time for those “budget” shipping orders or, at least, throws them into the back of the queue. I have two examples where I’ve ordered budget shipping and received my order in two days from ordering and, like my most recent purchase, ten days from ordering. What’s interesting to note from the first order is that I received my package before I ever got the “shipped notification” from Amazon.com. I believe that order was somehow processed too early given that Amazon.com knows if they have your product in stock at the DC in your area or not. On my most recent order, I received my “shipped notification” eight days after ordering my items and received the items two days later.
