Amazon, you ok bro?

I don’t know if it just the stuff I’m ordering, but my Amazon ordering experience has been uncharacteristically poor lately.

• An SSD arrives on schedule, part DOA on arrival.
• Different SSD ordered, misses delivery window multiple times, eventually ends up in a “we don’t know when this will arrive state.”
• Order a Kindle (in stock at time of purchase) and it took over a week to ship.
• The replacement SSD ordered for one that they can’t find was in stock and has a shipping date 12 days out.
• Another order with in stock house stuff expected for same day delivery, nope.

In all cases, tracking shows the delivery in Amazon’s hands and not something disappearing off my door step.

I enjoy the recent addition to the ordering tracking screen on the site that says the tracking information shown here is the same information that Amazon service agents see; implying that if you try to hassle them for more info they really don’t have any. Sigh.

Gonna rethink that Prime re-up next time it comes up.
