I ordered three books from Amazon. One was supposed to ship in 24 hours, the other two in 1-2 weeks. The 24 hours book shipped after a week, the two others are at this time estimated for delivery, one 3-5 weeks after purchase the other 5-7 weeks after purchase. how exactly can it take 5-7 weeks to get a book published by a major US printing house? And by the way, the book still to be delivered in 3-5 weeks is still listed in Amazon's web site as Availability: Usually ships within 24 hours. I wonder if I can sue their ass for misleading advertising. You'd figure that after blowing hundreds of millions of dollars in warehouses they would be able to give you a better estimate of when the books will arrive. Either that or they are playing some fishy games with the order... (when do they charge my credit card, ordering time or at shipping time?).
