Online Shopping--My Experiences

[Supervisor42]

I've never had any problem with ordering online. First I make sure that I use the right deliver to address. I've ordered everything from cars to precious metals online.

Consider yourself lucky.
My last 2 Amazon orders:
Ordered - November 26, due finally today... Nope!
Ordered - December 3rd, due (hopefully) December 19th. (still hasn't shipped as of today)
Do some math and see how many days it takes for me to get something.

I never said that I always had fast shipping. For us "2 day" shipping is usually 5 to 15 days. Overnight is at least 3 days. But we always receive what we order, eventually. Some things that I order is on backorder. A couple weeks ago I ordered some ammo, expected ship date is sometime in May.
I seldom order anything that I can find locally, which for us is a 150 mile radius.

Since someone posted something here I'll post about my latest purchase from TEMU. I wanted a better (I have a cheap one) mat set for the back of my Highlander. I carry a wheelchair back there & wanted a bit more protection for the interior. I did a search for what I wanted & of course listed my car. I started to order it & my wife pointed out that it was the wrong year period for my highlander. I glanced down & saw the same set with the right years listed & ordered it. A couple of hours later I was checking emails & saw that I had ordered a set to fit an Explorer. DUH! I went back to TEMU & tried to cancel the order. The message I got was they would try to cancel it & if not I could just send it back. A few hours later I got the "it was cancelled" notice & refund to my account. I went back & ordered the correct thing.

One comment: TEMU does what all of those places do which is list items that contain 1 or more words that you searched for. I HATE THAT. A mat set for a Toyota & and a Ford are totally 100% not the same thing so they shouldn't be in the search. Everybody does it but I sure hate it.
