Amazon.com = magic

[jesso]

So the other day I placed an order on Amazon.com for a lazy susan (to make a swift!), part of my mom's Christmas present, and a pre-order for Dr Horrible on DVD (only $9.99! you should all get a copy!). Somehow I selected, or didn't de-select, the option to ship it all at once. Later I realized my mistake, and realized that since Dr Horrible is coming out on December 19, my mom's present wouldn't make it here in time.

So at 11am on December 10, I revised the order to ship the stuff separately.

The box with my mom's present and the lazy susan arrived at 9:24am the very next day.

Whoooaaaaaaa.

When I look at the tracking number on UPS, the only thing it shows is the delivery. It doesn't show it leaving amazon's warehouse, or ever being in transit. It just miraculously showed up at work the next morning, less than 24 hours after I asked them to ship it.

Conclusion: Amazon shipped my order via TARDIS, not UPS. There is no other explanation.

YES.

I am pretty much doing all of my Christmas shopping there. No malls! No lines! They bring it to me via TARDIS! Win-win-win scenario there.
