Not surprised. Amazon has been completely useless since the pandemic hit the US. Everything I want is out of stock or shipping in weeks. I guess some people must be getting orders though.
It largely depends on what you want and where the items are in their warehouse network. Also depends on item size too it seems. A good amount of items I’m looking at I can still get next day here in Fort Lauderdale, but not everything. I was able to get a USB-C to DisplayPort cable shipping next day for Saturday delivery an hour ago. Yubikeys are also in stock. It is seemingly random since not all small items (but still equally tech-y) are in stock, but I don’t have the big picture look at it I guess.
I disagree with it being useless in the US. Amazon is still how I am largely getting most of my essentials (like groceries) and the occasional non essential right now.
Sure I may have to wait a bit longer to get what I need, but there have only been a few cases where something has been completely out of stock (except for the things that Amazon has publicly said they are no longer selling to consumers and only sending to hospitals, like disinfectant and other medical items)
I expected them to have a much stronger setup in the US.
