LPT: Trick to get Amazon to actually make the 1 or 2 shipping available
I know Amazon has recently turned 2 day shipping, into like 5 by using clever loopholes.
I suspect this is an attempt to upsell users to use same day shipping, so either buy more stuff to hit the 25 minimum for free same day, or pay 3 dollars.
For instance, on the first of December, I noticed some shampoo for my dog, had next day shipping. But when I go to order it, it only had "Same day or the next morning" or, the only other option which would deliver on the 5th
What the hell? Where is the normal 2 day shipping option? As you've probably noticed, they've just set it 4-5 days out, trying to force you into same day shipping requirements.
So what I figured out is if you select the same day shipping, then immediately go to your orders, click the recent order, and click "Change Delivery Method" (Or whatever it is), you can unselect the same day shipping option, and instead select the actual 1 or two day shipping.
So for me, on Dec 1, I only had same day available, and Dec 5 available. Did same day, immediately went back. Changed the shipping option, and there was Dec 2 delivery available. And I got it the next day.
Hope this helps!
