I noticed this happening over Christmas. The one big claim to fame that Amazon has is fast and “free” shipping. But that seems to be going away now.

Alot of stuff I ordered in November and December of last year, took longer than usual to arrive. I just chalked it up to how busy the holiday season is.

Fast forward to this month, and all of the items I ordered took longer to arrive. Even “Prime” listed stuff. On the website it said shipping next day. It took two days to arrive. Stuff listed as two days to arrive turns out to be a week now, and so called “Prime next day shipping” is now only guaranteed if you spend 35 dollars or more. And even then it still arrives a day late.

So to everyone hating on Amazon, rejoice! It looks like it’s reign is starting to dip. I’ve been doing alot more shopping on Walmart who seems to have better pricing and shipping.

I wonder who the next big online retailer will be?
