Anybody else tired of the poor Amazon packaging?

[MoulinBlu]

Who said it doesn't pay to complain here: I haven't "whined" anywhere else and it's been months since I sent a complaint directly to amazon. But this week, everything I've ordered (4 separate purchases) has arrived in only two days, just like it used to be for me, and apparently still is for others. Most of the items shipped via UPS too. Two items actually arrived a day ahead of schedule: Forever Marilyn via UPS on Monday (shipping notice said Tuesday) and Titanic via USPS on Saturday (shipping notice said Monday).

I don't really expect that this thread produced results that fast, but I figure it only fair to report the good with the bad. But, don't get me started on how bad their subscribe and save program has become.

I think I've decided to keep prime. Not because of the shipping so much, but I now have it in my head that prime members may get more favorable customer service consideration than non-prime members. I know I've gotten at least 50 of last year's 80 dollar prime investment back in goods I didn't have to return that arrived in damaged cases or were inaccurately described, mostly warehouse deals orders.
