I hope more items aren't changed to be 4-5 day shipping. Prime is just not worth it to me without the 2 day shipping.
I've had a number of items that I bought prime that took 4-5 days to get here. I think they try to save money by using cheaper shipping methods. Sometimes they will use the USPS to do the final delivery. A couple of months ago, I ordered some earrings for my sister's birthday. I ordered on a Tuesday and it didn't get here until the following Monday. Since her birthday was on Sunday, that really didn't work well for me, so I shipped it back.

The sad part was I contacted Amazon on Friday (it was suppose to have arrived on Thursday) and was assured that it would get there that Saturday. I told the guy, look, it's being shipped UPS and they don't deliver on Saturday. Not to worry, I was told.
