I'm north of Medford, so a little bit out in the sticks. It seems like most of my orders ship from AZ, pass me on I-5 going to Portland and then get routed back south. It's definitely one of the smallest annoyances in my life so not a huge complaint. I wouldn't move back for any reason. I still use Amazon a lot. Now that I know it helps support the forum I will follow the product links here.
That’s likely what it is. I am in Salem and I notice that my orders go to Portland first and then get sent back south to me here in Salem. However, for whatever reason or another, I get all of my Prime orders in 2 days, with the exception of a few items that actually said on the checkout page they would be 3-4 days.
