Amazon: Free Shipping

Ordered some supplies from Amazon and was not in a hurry until they said it may not be till the end of the month that I would receive my items. To make a long story short I simply took everything out of the basket and went over the B&H and got free shipping for the same items and my stuff is on the way as I type this. I think Amazon is making a big mistake if they continue to really milk the process out. They are saying its 5-8 business days after all items are found. I say that you said its in stock so pack it up and send it the slowest method.

amazon is getting annoying with their prime service. where they will on purpose, take a week to send something that should take the next day. and often they don't mention it will take 5 weeks to get something, because half of it is from china.

i think the other tactic is to say it will take 2 weeks to get, so when you get it in a week, you'll give them high praise. unlike me, which screamed at them because i expected something that i needed that next day or so, when they gave me this 2-3week span of time... i said what? all other places send it the next day. then they overnighted it.

tell them what you did. they overcharge smaller items to pay for the free shipping. there shouldn't be a delay. i live right next to a hub, i should get it fast.
