Fair/unfair for those that pay for the service?

I wanted some bluetooth ear buds and was surprised to see prime delivery for every single item was April 23. Came across this.

From what I can see, pretty much anything that falls under the electronics category is not essential.

However you can still get ps4 games with free one day shipping but have to wait a month for a vinyl record.

I haven't had any of my stuff delayed yet, and I've had probably 2-3 orders a week for the past month.

I ordered a couple non essential things the other day, they came in the same time frame. I was looking through some items though and they clearly sat not available until april XX but some are still saying next day or 2 day etc

same happened to me just now. Ordered a headset and some AAA batteries. Delivery April 24. Was hoping for the headset this week because more time on hands but oh well. I'm ok with this practice.

Most items are subscription-based. We're expecting a package to come in tomorrow.

That's what I am wondering. Sound much "essential" stuff not in stock but I can't get shit that I want for almost a month. However if I want an amazon alexa/echo/dot product it's free next day, even on the weekend.
