Missed ANOTHER prime 2 day delivery window.


November 4, 2014, 10:22 am, Williamsport PA US In transit to pickup location
November 4, 2014, 10:22 am, Williamsport PA US Package arrived at a carrier facility
November 4, 2014, 10:20 am, Williamsport PA US Customer requested forward to new address
November 4, 2014, 10:20 am, Williamsport PA US Possible delay in delivery due to arrival at incorrect carrier facility
November 4, 2014, 9:16 am, Williamsport PA US Out for delivery
November 4, 2014, 7:52 am, Williamsport PA US Package has been transferred to the USPS and will be delivered by your local postal office
November 3, 2014, 8:15 am, Ashland PA US In transit to pickup location
November 3, 2014, 8:15 am, Ashland PA US Package arrived at a carrier facility

November 3, 2014, 3:05 am, Fedex Smartpost Allentown PA US Package has left the carrier facility
November 3, 2014, 3:05 am, Fedex Smartpost Allentown PA US In transit to pickup location
November 2, 2014, 2:25 pm, Fedex Smartpost Allentown PA US Package arrived at a carrier facility
November 2, 2014, 12:54 am, US Package has left seller facility and is in transit to carrier

So the package was LITERALLY 3 miles from my house... yet the USPS decided to ship it to Williamsport?

Then they figured out that Ashland PA is nowhere near Williamsport... and hopefully have sent it back to Ashland... or worse, Allentown.

Amazon and Smartpost... never a good deal. Of all the orders I have had problems with... Smartpost has always managed to screw it up.

Is there a way to contact a "Prime" representative and have them explain the delay(s)??

UPDATE:

On 11/5 I did email Amazon and they said 'wait a day, it might show up'. OK, sure.

I did get a free month of Prime and a refund.. so tonight I will RE-ORDER the part and try it again.. its a Raspberry Pi with a camera kit.. its a neat little toy that I will turn into a my own version of ChromeCast (I was going to buy a ChromeCase by that thing is useless without an internet connection).

Of the 13 orders I have placed far this year 2 have been past the 2 day window and three items were returned.
