Amazon Prime Delays Are Now as Long as a Month

Amazon Prime Delays Are
Now as Long as a Month.
As of Sunday, many non-essential
items ordered with Prime delivery are
showing an April 21 delivery date.
An Amazon spokesperson released a
statement regarding the blanket delay.
To serve our customers in need while also helping to ensure the safety of our associates, we’ve changed our logistics, transportation, supply chain, purchasing, and third-party seller processes .., Amazon Statement, via Vox.
… to prioritize stocking and delivering items that are a higher priority for our customers. This has resulted in some of our delivery promises being longer than usual, Amazon Statement, via Vox.
Faced with brick and mortar shortages,
shoppers have turned to Amazon
for their supplies in droves.
Amazon announced that it was “temporarily
prioritizing” essentials items in its warehouses,
so that it “can more quickly receive, restock
and deliver these products to customers.”.
The items include “household staples,
medical supplies, and other
high-demand products.”
