For some items, I used to be willing to pay a slight premium to Amazon, in part because of the more reliable shipping. Lately, I've been willing to pay a slight premium to third party Amazon Marketplace sellers because of the less unreliable shipping. |

The only time mine is more than two days is in the evening meaning I've missed the cutoff time or on Friday when the delivery day may be Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. On Friday used to mean Wednesday so I've seen improvement there.

I placed an order on Sept. 14 and selected the "no rush shipping". The order has not shipped yet. The estimated delivery is between Sept. 19-23. I don't think I will use this option often. I have gotten used to the quick shipping.

Shipping soon (at least this is what it meant the last time I researched it) means that the order has been transmitted to the warehouse, and it's too late to cancel it. It doesn't mean that the order will be picked in any particular time frame.
I was curious as to whether or not yours was a Prime account because, in my experience, all of my orders have shipped out of an Amazon warehouse within 24 hours of my making any orders ever since I was a Prime customer. |
