Well Tracking Real Time started at 6 am 20 mins away took 5.5 Hours! I did ask the driver about why it was not scanned since it left OR got to NJ He wasn't sure but said they did not scan Items they scanned Huge shipments Bulk I should have got those. Then once they get closer they switch boxes it keeps breaking down till it Your [my boxes] alone. Which for me started when he loaded it from Williamsport to me. Speculated the Tracker or scanner might have been broken... not going thru.

Bet I not the only one that had packages in those huge boxes that complained to Amazon. But at least they know & can fix the problems.

And if your package and its contents were damaged you had no recourse. Of course you could pay extra for insurance.

I enjoy whining as much as the next person but unfortunately for me Amazon's notification system works well.

Yes I remember those good old days. But back then when you ordered some thing you picked it up at a B&M Store or PO.. Too many packages bring Delivered & NOT getting to the person that PAID for it. Just Dropped at the Door so the next person can pick it up Even tho the 1 Dont live there 2 Didnt pay for it!

Having had that happen to me more times than I can count I Like seeing where the items I PAID for are at! O and nothing like opening a Box that Empty!

I remember early days of ordering through the mail or by phone. You waited 4-6 weeks for your order, and getting help with orders wasn't always easy.

I grumble about delivery issues, but if I really look at our track record with Amazon, it's been fairly trouble free.

We have an Amazon fulfillment center going in where an old mall was torn down, about 25 miles from here. They are in the hiring phase right now. It's great for the area where the mall was, they are looking to hire 1,500 people.

Another center is going in near Toledo, making 8 Ohio fulfillment centers. Amazon committed to Ohio that they would hire 2,500 workers in total. Highways are being updated, ramps and exits, tax incentives are in the works. It's all a good thing.

I am frustrated with some 3rd party sellers, but at least you can avoid them if you pay attention.

I guess... very cheap books could be used as loo roll? I mean with lockdowns coming again I'm sure actual loo roll will again be in short supply in much of the world due to people buying perfectly reasonable quantities such as 12000 rolls at once.

Got some real time tracking on today's delivery.

Barbara1955 · 09-22-2020, 09:44 AM

Here we go again. Ordered item yesterday suppose to be here Thursday... A Day I Picked! This morning they sent email Be here Tomarrow! Thanks a Lot Amazon! Do I wait for it or go to my Doctors appt?
Why bother to ask Me when I want it Delivered then change it?

BTW I ordered from a 3rd party... So should Not even be Delivered by Amazon. BUT it IS!!

Deskisamess · 09-22-2020, 09:49 AM

Many third part items are handled and shipped by Amazon. It shows that on the product pages.

This was not ... it was coming directly from the 3rd party seller.

Deskisamess · 09-22-2020, 09:53 AM

What's the item? I don't think Amazon will ship something they don't handle from their own warehouses.

Barbara1955 · 09-22-2020, 11:09 AM

When I ordered it Yesterday it was listed as coming from ONIVA. Now it says Sold by: Amazon.com Services LLC. LAST time it said this the item was Used in the Wear house ..returned. New comes from ONIVA. Hope they did not do a switch on me!

Hoping to Avoid Amazon Del services... They have yet to tell me Where is is Now! SOS different day Different item

Barbara1955 · 09-22-2020, 11:45 AM

Well now in Baltimore ... if it follows the last package it will Go to Williamsport MD new delivery center https://www.heraldmailmedia.com/inst...e35af7880.html
I could pick it up quicker than they can get it to me... 20 mins away!

Without a link to the actual item, it's impossible to say.
