      I believe it’s because they hope a driver will pick it up for you. Those late night packages are delivered by contractors and they might just not pick yours on a whim probably depending on several factors.

      100% of my amazon deliveries for the past two years have been at least a day later than promised.

      They used to have excellent shipping. Now they just lie about every delivery time.

        I noticed that too. Sometimes the orders are time sensitive (like when I have to fly out of country and need to take the item with me). So I prefer honesty, most of time I will still order anyways because it doesnt matter, when it matters, at least I dont have to return it.

        but thats not how amazon is operating.

        So I just buy from temu now

      Probably depends on the delivery service partner. They have slightly different hours from company to company.
