Amazon Prime delivery is not so fast as they say
Amazon is a big business and I was most of the times happy to buy from Amazon Prime. They do fast delivery, sell good products and have the best customer service I ever saw, but...
Even if I am paying for Prime membership, this Prime is not really giving me what it should.
Prime means 1 day delivery and sometimes even evening delivery for some products if you buy early in the morning as they say on Amazon website:

To make things clear, I live in London, UK so everything should be according to what they say, but is not.
At least not all the time.
To prove my affirmation I will show you 2 orders I done in the last days.
In the first order it says:
FREE One-Day Delivery: get it by Tuesday, Feb. 13
when the order was done on 10 February 2018 as you can see from the right bottom corner.
In this case, FREE One-Day Delivery means tomorrow, not on 3 days from today.
On the next 2 images the delivery was estimated for the same day, on evening if the order was placed in the next 36 minutes as I actually done (basically in the next minute)
After the product was added to the cart, on the paying steps, the Amazon estimation was suddenly changed for 8th February 2018. Everything happened in less the 2 minutes.
