What's this?

I live in PA. They have a big warehouse in the state. My orders

are held for days until they ship. I'm not sure it is done to support prime. It seems to me they try to hit the shipping time frame for which you have paid.

I typically select free shipping, which usually means they hold the order for a few days prior to shipping. Then it is en route for 1-2 days. If I pay for expedited shipping, it leaves their warehouse within 24 hours.

Does Amazon slow play regular orders to push Prime? -- Late 80s Hokie 02/16/2016 08:14AM

Only issues I ever have is when I buy items that are not fulfilled by Amazo -- Vienna_Hokie 02/16/2016 2:23PM

I've actually been getting those items quicker than the Amazon fulfilled. ** -- Late 80s Hokie 02/16/2016 3:03PM

I dunno. We have Prime, and I think it would be tough giving it up. ** -- reestuart 02/16/2016 08:43AM

Remember that Amazon now waits to combine small orders and ship together. -- MEHOKIE 02/16/2016 08:35AM

Before I joined Prime recently, I really saw this. If i ordered one item -- tcc_dc 02/16/2016 08:41AM

Dunno, same kind of anecdotal stories though -- `lag 02/16/2016 08:25AM

Amazon has definitely been pushing the faster shipping option... -- hokiemas 02/16/2016 08:18AM
