This summer it took Amazon 74 days to deliver a book. Not even a new book.

A book sold and fulfilled by Amazon.

Amazon's online system kept pushing back the delivery date one week at a time, so it couldn't be canceled either online or by the phone drones.

After the second delay I just went to a local bookstore and bought it right there.

When the book from Amazon finally arrived, I took it straight to Whole Foods for a refund.
