Where I live, prime isn't instant shipping. Some things, yes. A lot of things.... it's just free shipping.

We ordered some things for our house which we needed urgently (a capacitor for the air con during a heatwave) earlier this year, around spring time.

Took nearly a week to arrive despite being "prime shipping" or whatever. The shipping was free, but it was not fast.

So all that stuff about prime being fast and free shipping, is at most 50% right most of the time.
