Package woes

I bought something from the Amazon for my mother's Christmas gift. It was scheduled for delivery today. Monday I got an email telling me it would be delivered Tuesday. Yesterday I got an email telling me that delivery would be delayed until Thursday. I made travel plans for Thursday morning to go see her and take her gift to her. She's 5 hours away. This news messed up those plans. Today (Wednesday ) I got notification that it was out for delivery. 🙄. Now I'm wondering if it is REALLY out for delivery. Stay tuned for more.

You can call customer service abd you might get a refund, even if they do deliver today. It's worked for me.
You'll have to ask Googke for the phone number though. It's extremely well-hidden on the website.

It still may get there on time. Its happened to me several times and they arrived early anyway. They do that i think in case of a delay it doesn't mean that it will definitely be delayed.

@AngelUnforgiven I'm hoping.

This is why you should never shop on-line

Shop in person and have it the same day, no waiting for the mailman to deliver a package

@HumanEarth I couldn't find it locally.

Lot of this going on at the moment.

Especially from the online stores
Black Friday is a great marketing gimmick and often the prices are good too. But there's nowhere near enough delivery infrastructure to keep all the standard overnight and 2nd-day promises.

On Saturday I ordered a book for Monday delivery to a friend, and as of Wednesday it's showing "not yet shipped." I'm confident it'll eventually arrive; just don't know when.
