Is Amazon bad? I bought a headphone from Amazon, which has just arrived in Sweden. Before that, I used almost every service for delivery here and they were ALWAYS terrible. They said 3 to 5 business days for delivery, and it took 6 business days. Every time. When they had the 1 to 2 days option (which was rare, and when they did it was expensive), it would never come within that timeframe either. I checked some Terms and Conditions and apparently they were within the law because they're allowed a few extra days due to unforeseen circumstances.
That's why I tried Amazon this time. For a small fee, they had "next day delivery". I tried it. God damn it worked! The very next morning my item was ready for pick up at the nearby grocer.
Signing up was extremely easy and to my amusement, they had the lowest price as well. I don't know, but so far I am thinking Amazon is very much the best in the business. I am extremely surprised they managed to be so efficient even in Sweden, despite every workplace regulation making efficiency a very difficult, if not impossible, goal to achieve.
