Not sure why it's so hard for some people.

When Amazon Prime was real 2-day shipping and they'd send something via overnight air just to get it to you in time, it was nice. And would have been hard to give up.

Now that it just means free shipping, and you might get it tomorrow and you might get it in a week, it's much easier just to buy somewhere else. Walmart. Target. BH Photo. Adorama. Best Buy. Tons of options.

It still does mean 2 day for most things that aren’t huge items - my bed took a week, but most of my items show up next day or day after tomorrow.
