I canceled my prime over a year ago, so my deliveries taking 3-4 days was likely during and shortly after covid. Which certainly could have had an affect. I understand that staffing and inventory was difficult during that time.

So I would not be surprised if prime delivery is back to 1-2 days now.

But, I still have no desire to purchase prime again. All it did was encourage me to buy things I really didn't need. Simply being able to buy almost anything at any time is not healthy for me.

When it's 11pm and I suddenly have a desire to start a new hobby and buy a bunch of products to support it, I can no longer fill my Amazon shopping cart and click buy. The added friction of having to wait until stores open the next day means I completely forget about it before I waste my money.
