Amazon’s Best of Prime 2018: Prime Members Worldwide Ordered Two Billion Products with One-Day Delivery or Faster

Besides being Best of Prime 2018 Day, today is also Adios Prime Day for monkey. Today is my last day on Prime and I'm not renewing it. Somehow, I can't find it in myself to pay Amazon $119 for slow delivery. Besides two-day shipping, Prime Video was the other reason I kept Prime. It was my only paid video subscription service. But now that I have Hulu for a year at $0.99/month, who needs Prime? So celebrate your broken delivery system all you want, Amazon, and I'll celebrate the fact that I now have an extra $107 in my pocket . Last edited by tubemonkey; 12-03-2018 at 07:10 AM.

Even when I choose No Rush Shipping it usually arrives within two days.

I am actually glad the UK no rush credit option is gone.
I was buying far too much cheap stuff that I did no really need as I was hooked on accumulating credits to convert to free books & videos- so I am spending less at amazon now. I suspect amazon over-recruited on Couriers and now have the capacity to deliver all prime orders next day - they now deliver on Sundays also |

I really miss it. It's reduced the value of Prime to me by at least £50 a year.

Our son and his family are moving back to this area so I purchased a car seat, a booster seat and two pads to protect the car seats. I purchased these items from Amazon on Sunday and I used the No Rush Option. The car seat and pads are being delivered today and the booster seat tomorrow. They were originally supposed to arrive by the 29th of January.
