I just ordered a book from Amazon US; Amazon Japan didn’t have it in stock, and, with the weak dollar right now, it was actually cheaper to order it from the US, even including the shipping. Today, I got the ship confirmation email from Amazon; that was expected, as it was in stock when I placed the order, and they estimated that they would ship on March 14th, which it still was in the USA.
The estimated delivery date is March 16th.
I will be very impressed if that turns out to be correct.
So, has it turned up yet?
Ah, yes. It turned up on Saturday, which was about when I expected it to.
I didn’t bother emailing Amazon to enquire about my missing book in the meantime…
