This almost certainly depends on where you are, I can reliably get normal prime shipping or even same and next day for 99% of non-specialty items

Not that Amazon making service worse for some is acceptable, but that it’s not universal

But will it show up?

In the last 30 days we're 50-50 that something will even arrive -- at the local drop point, at the secure package receipt on the ground floor, at the local post office; 50-50 across the board.

I threw a RAID disk but prime said "4 days" so I bit. 2 weeks later it's still in the wind but "out for delivery". By then I bought one local, but got COVID on the way home from the shops. I've almost recovered.
