I opted for 1 other option for $4 extra which was delivery between the 6th & 11th..
I agree no one is perfect i have also had issues with them but mainly on stuff that comes from China, shipping times are outrageous if they even ship the stuff.

Speaking for myself, i buy around $2000-$3000 a month from Amazon so the prime membership @ $10 a month is well worth it. I buy a lot of tool related stuff and find it cost effective to ship from Amazon rather than drive 40 miles to the local Home Depot and most of the time Amazons prices are better.

I used to use e-bay more but people on there are charging stupid prices and shipping is sporadic at best.
