Amazon.co.uk, Why so slow?
Hi guys, I have pre-ordered Madonna's Rebel Heart from them since January 20th. Now, when the wonderful play.com was in full swing before it just became a market place, they had processed the payment for the MDNA pre-order on the Tuesday before and I received the album on the Saturday before release. It is Thursday, the album is out Monday and Amazon haven't even started to get the ball rolling yet. I paid first class postage so was anticipating the same procedure as what play.com followed.
What are everyone elses experience with Amazon? Is it likely I'll get the pre-order on Monday? Also, what are WOWHD like? How fast are they? Thanks. |

If you've picked 1st class then you should get it on release day.

Whenever I've pre-ordered an album with Amazon, I've always received it the weekend before the Monday it's released.

As of the past year or so, I never receive CDs on the Saturday before anymore. That always used to be my aim, especially if I were gagging for an album.
If it's first class with amazon then you'll get it on Monday but the days of early Saturday arrival are long gone it seems

I used to get albums all the time on the release date or the saturday or friday before. But they seemed to have scrapped it now. If you want it on the release date, you have to pay an extra couple of quid which is silly and not worth it. For me personally, an album arrives when it arrives. I shouldn't have to pay extra for it to come on the day, even though i pre ordered it well in advance. I will probs not get my Madonna album until wednesday/thursday.
