I was surprised a few weeks ago when Amazon delivered one of my orders in just 14 hours. Surprisingly they gave me rush delivery for free. The package came in a first-of-the-morning type delivery, when all the rest of the time the Amazon trucks are in our neighborhood between 6-8pm every day (I hear their silly backing-up buzzers). Ironically that was one order I actually didn't need or want for 3 more weeks. Well, today Amazon beat their own record. I just got a package same-day, delivered a mere 9 hours 3 minutes after I ordered it.
Again, I wasn't expecting it that fast. I wouldn't have minded if it arrived Monday. And they didn't even tell me it would arrive that fast until after I ordered. At order time they offered free next-day shipping. I figured, "Why not?" Then, after I placed the order around 8:30 this morning, they updated the delivery estimate to 5-10pm today. It landed on my doorstep around 5:30pm.
