I’m certain that this generous $3 no-rush offer is to relieve the unprecedented burden on their infrastructure as they’re getting hammered with a vastly increased number of orders as much of the country practices social isolation/sheltering in place.
It seems unreasonable to expect on time deliveries during such perilous times, particularly given the very real sacrifices being made to ensure our health, safety, and comfort. Requesting the ~$5 Prime late delivery courtesy credit during a pandemic violates the spirit of the policy IMHO, since things are not business as usual and we’re fortunate that they can even still operate.
It’s not often that I can defend Amazon’s business practices, but they’re actually trying to do right by the country (customers and employees alike) right now, so maybe say thanks/I’ll pitch in by accepting the $3 no-rush credit… and maybe don’t give them reason to reexamine that $5 credit when things calm down because so many tried to exploit it when Amazon was vulnerable through no fault of their own.
