At any rate, if it does actually ship to you that isn’t your fault, so I wouldn't worry about. A couple of years agoI ordered an item that was stated to be shipped from the USA, but it turned out to be shipped out of China and the Prime 2-Day delivery was going to be more like 4 weeks. I called Amazon, complained and they cancelled the order an refunded my money and found a seller who was in the USA so I could get the part in a couple of days.The item was only about $10 and the Chinese seller had alreaddy shipped it so they emailed me an apology for falsely advertising Prime shipping and said to keep the item when it arrived. It was cheaper for them to eat the few dollars of loss rather than try to get it back.

Thanks for the info ! It was a prime order so amazon took care of it. It might have been shipped from the UK. Perhaps that's why the seller didn't have one to sell in the US with prime shipping. The UK shipping is something like $50. But I also have no details about where the wheelbarrow is, only that it shipped and evidently still coming. The dates have changed so I expect it to run it's course and eventually tell me to notify the seller that it has not arrived. Only the seller told me they didn't have one to sell due to a glitch in the system. If it does actually come, I'll have two identical wheelbarrows. Lol. So I'll chalk it up to Christmas magic and donate one to a toy drive.
