Amazon Delivery Services

in #steemit6 years ago

I have no Idea how Amazon works in the rest of the World but in India it pretty much sucks. It's not just Amazon, it's almost all e-commerce Websites that are having these issues. If you are not from a Capital of a State than you are pretty much screwed on Delivery.

Props to Amazon for at least not charging delivery fees, some e-commerce websites charge a lot of Delivery charges only to be delivered God knows when.

I ordered this Gaming mouse about three days ago and it is Not yet Despatched. I would have been ok if my Parcel was in Transit, but it hasn't even been dispatched yet. Frankly speaking, the Delivery Service is the one which is almost fucked up in India.

I remember when I used to get my Deliveries in 2-3 Days, hell I even received one of my Packages within a Day. But now that seems to be a distant memory.

Sort:  

The delivery system of most courier companies are restricted to the Tier1 and Tier 2 cities with very few courier companies going towards Tier 3 cities. Delivery service of Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities are good but Tier 3 city has very average service. From last 3-4 years the delivery service has drastically fallen in India, it may be because of heavy volume of shipments.

It could be that or the fact that they are using third party logistics.

I don't like Amazon either.

I live in the countryside of Hungary and I have tried to order books (The Summer King Chronicles) (the first 4 books) from that site multiple times, but they do not deliver them to my address (they stated this before I could submit my order).
I ordered (and received) the books from a German webshop (Fusselschwarm) instead.

"If you are not from a Capital of a State than you are pretty much screwed on Delivery. "

Yes, that is true.
Today I tried to order another book from Amazon, the book 5 of the above mentioned series. They would ship this one to my address, but there is a price for the shipping and this price is almost equivalent with the price of the book. The shipping price is much more cheaper with the German shop (I know that there is a "Free Shipping" option on Amazon, but only if an order is at least $25).

I kinda agree with their policy for free shipping only iver 25 USD as they do have to pay for delivery so if the order value is low they will lose money.

awesome concept sir your blog is top class thanks for share your inportant concept.
