Fun thing, if you don't sort by "Prime" you'll often find that there's another one of the exact item you're looking for - without Prime - but actually for a lower price. The Prime isn't actually free shipping, it's just baked into the price
Plus the delivery dates are a joke anyway. Prime or not my orders all show up in the same amount of time. Sure they promise it's always 1-2 days but that doesn't seem to matter.
In amazons defense it's 1-2 days shipping not processing or handling but they are definitely still deceiving
The details for Prime explicitly refer to it as Two Day Delivery, not shipping.
