I ordered a book from Amazon and it shipped today. They sent me an email to let me know the estimated delivery date:

Delivery Estimate: April 08, 2011 - April 25, 2011

Why not just say sometime before summer?
 
They have a guy throwing it as far as he can and then running up to where it lands and throwing it in your direction again. Over and over again. It's hard to judge these things...

:lol:

amazon always give me delivery dates like that, usually if I buy from a market seller rather than amazon themselves though
 
I've just stopped buying from Amazon. Last time I ordered a bunch of vinyls, all supposedly in stock. Yeah ok, I get that they might be spread across several locations. Doesn't explain why they use an enourmous box, dump the vinyls in the bottom, and then just chuck a few air cushion things on top. So they all turn up with the corners bashed in. And when I say they all turn up, I mean they drip fed me the order over time. Some of them took a couple of months before they shipped. It went from being "in stock" to "should be available soon" to "dunno when it'll be available... sure you don't want to cancel it?" to finally shipping. And then when they did finally ship, I got this...

Maybe they just hate dealing with international orders or something, coz I get it all the time with Amazon. :shrug:

It's pretty much just taking the piss though. If you really must ship it in an enormous box, at least a) use enough of your stupid air cushion things to actually fill the box so that stuff doesn't move, and b) how about putting some in, then put the items in, and then fill the rest of the box? :facepalm:
