I ordered two items from Amazon recently.
Both got in this weird state where the tracking showed they were shipped. Great, then they both hit this location where they were "delayed". I got a notice about that.
Then Amazon has this weird status where Amazon says "You can request a replacement or refund in X days." then it says something about "It might be lost." And it stays in that state for days ... But only if you check app do you see any of this additional status do you know any of this.
Otherwise for all I know this stuff would just sit in that state forever, they keep my money, and just roll on...
I had yet another shipment that entered the same state but obviously had NEVER been shipped, there was no tracking, the tracking number was generated but it was never picked up. It also entered the same limbo state where Amazon doesn't tell me anything, but hey they took my money so I guess they don't care.
Having said all that I'm less interested in Amazon BECAUSE their site seems more like Walmart every day. Pushing items that are a dollar cheaper but clearly garbage quality.
At this point I'm just hitting up Target and other random online retailers to compare / use more often.

With Amazon this exact chain of events happened to me. And also confirmed that they don't really give you that status unless you click through the app. In the end, it took five days to get something I ordered as same day delivery.
