If you need a last mo costume for Halloween , do n’t trust on Amazon Prime shipping to get it in metre . Many customers are kick that when they proceed to order their Halloween costume , Amazon promised it would be shipped in two solar day . But when they got the check of their monastic order , it turned out the parcel would come much later than initially promised .
OneRedditorwrites that she ordered a costume for her Word with Prime two - solar day transportation on October 18 :
Strangely , when I got the order confirmation , it was scheduled to be present today , 10/26 . So I try out to update the transportation orientation , but the scheduled date stick around the same . Last nighttime , it said it had n’t ship , but was schedule to arrive by 8 postmortem examination tonight . This good afternoon , I get the email from Amazon that says there is a delay and the costume will now arrive on 11/2 . Obviously I cancelled , but now I have to run around with my Word and endeavor to receive another costume . Thanks for the false hope Amazon !
Turns out , many masses are cover this exact trouble , with both Halloween and non - Halloween related item . It ’s a busy clock time of year , and only bear to get busy . Many masses are complaining about the takings on the company ’s Facebook page as well . “ What ’s happening on your website ? When I order item that say they ’ll take 2 Day to arrive , I get emails say they wo n’t be here until 6 days ! ! ! ” a woman in Virginiawrites .
Bekka of Coloradocomplainsthat her daughter ’s Pikachu costume was supposed to add up between the 24th and 28th , but has been retard until November 1 .
Even Jezebel ’s manage editor Kate Dries fell victim . She told Gizmodo that she ordered a hairdryer — she ’s been drying her hair with a fan for the past two workweek , which allegedly works well — so she could have straightforward hair for her costume . She explains :
Upon checking out , Amazon kindly gave me the option of having my things shipped together so as not to waste boxes . As a friend to the surround , after looking to see if it seemed like my hooey would still get to me by Friday , I clicked the footling boxlike confirming that yes , it would be wend its way to me on Friday . Perhaps this is what made the conflict in my package time , but shortly after , my electronic mail from Amazon told me my things ( all five items are come in two boxes anyway ) will not be conjoin me until Monday .
Kate is plain not alone in her struggle . Many , manycustomersonFacebookandRedditface a standardized fate this Halloween . It does n’t seem linked to a particular product , but rather , people using free two - day cargo ships from Amazon Prime . We have reached out to Amazon and will update the story if we get a reception .
