    Shit Amazon has SAME DAY delivery over 35 bucks

    WOW, if you order before noon you get it the same day in a bunch of different zip codes. That is simply amazing and I bet will be a big game changer for them.

            They are Amazonazing for sure. I think we have daily packages showing up. Only thing I feel bad about is the waste of all the cardboard boxes.

                I love selling on Amazon.. buying is hit or miss as I have no reason to pay for prime and if you don't have prime they take their sweet time shipping.

                    I'd use it for $20 a year Its £79 a year in the UK, which might be good value for the film and TV side of things if I didn't already have the very top package available from my Satellite provider...

                      Amazon is slowly reducing the Prime service, what used to be a two day delivery is now a 3 day packing + two day delivery. I remember when they first started the orders would ship the same day. Now it rarely quicker than most other companies.
                      A lot of sellers have been asked to hike there selling price to help cover the shipping costs as Amazon is losing its shirt on the Prime deal.

                      Also a lot of items are now cheaper elsewhere, heres an example. I purchased 32oz bottle Braggs Organic Cider Vinegar for $12.99 on Amazon before checking local prices. I later found the local supermarket selling the exact same item for $5.99. My fault for not checking but after getting a reputation for great pricing Amazon are now increasing pricing to help them make a profit and hoping customer don't notice !!

                        Retailing 101, get a customer base and after you have them increase prices. Sure, some will leave but most will not. Man is a creature of habit.

                        This applies to both the amazon prime service as well as good sold.

                          I have two MASSIVE Amazon distribution centers within a 30 minute drive from my house. When I order from Amazon using free shipping, if it's fulfilled through Amazon, I usually get it the next day early in the morning. I used their same day shipping once, and it was only $11 for me.

                          I can't wait for their drone shipments to take off (no pun intended). That will be the game changer. Same day shipping has been around for a while.

                            They've never had same day shipping before have they? They have a huge splash promo on their page today about it, order before noon get it by 8 if you are in certain zip codes. No additional cost either, same as prime shipping two day and I've never had to wait days to process an order I just ordered a phone cover for 7 bucks and it was two days and shipped the same day I ordered.

                              Its not bundled with anything here, just the delivery options. I get around 10 things a month. So works out at about 15 pence an order.

                              And I order fridges, mattresses, desks... all the horrible stuff, hehe.

                                I had something delivered same day on September 17th 2015, and paid $9.98 for shipping. Maybe it was something they were testing in my area since I live so close to some of their major distribution centers. It was an iPad case for my daughter. I ordered at 9am, and it was delivered before 5pm the same day.

                                Here's a screen cap of the order details. It shipped the same day I ordered, and was delivered the same day. It's been an option for me since last year.

                                  was it a prime item?

                                    You can't ship a xbox for $8, at best depending where it's going you can ship it for $11 but could be as high as $15-16.

                                    Amazon has fucked up the expectations on shipping by charging so little and now everyone thinks shit should be shipped free.

                                        It isn't, I have a look periodically, and it's just as shit as netflix, virgin, sky, etc. maybe 1% or less actually worth watching (discounting the footy on Sky/bt)

                                        edited to add: I still think the £79 for next day is very good value, like many here I order a fair bit from them. Love it when my books arrive the next day

                                            maybe they can't with one package but imagine the discount they get with teh volume and bulk they do.........I'm sure they are just fine.
