SS, nice to see you posting again!

I think Amazon was hit with a huge flood of new buyers during their worker trim-down/workplace redesign efforts over the virus.

That's the downside of their enormous name recognition: People who don't normally shop online knew to try them first. Prime members are not being shoved to the side by the company but by the crowd of new buyers/hoarders, and also by backed-up shippers. I'm one of them. I ordered an item on April 24th. It has an expected delivery date from June 15 - July 7. And it says it's shipped.

Amazon is like a world champion power-lifter whose knees are suddenly buckling from added weight when he's lost weight himself over an illness.

We're all going to have to be patient and accept this reality for the time being - however long that will be.
