So I really can't complain about that. Some things do take longer though. Prime Shipping is not what it used to be (except in my special case surrounded by distribution centers, and only for items that are in stock locally - which is quite a lot actually).

Same here, there's at least three Amazon distribution centers in a four hour drive radius, so stuff usually arrives very quickly. There are some exceptions, for example some floor mats I ordered for dad for his car. Those are apparently custom made after the order's received, so a two week delay's understandable.
And during previous Prime Day sales the shipping time wasn't impacted much (a day or two slower at most), including July's. Why this one was one different is a
very good question.
