Since Amazon offers a 'guarantee' of getting the prime orders delivered by a specified date, many people complained when the items failed to appear on time. Now Amazon is using the FedEx Smart Ship option more frequently which involves the USPS.I see this anticipatory shipping as a way of helping maintain guaranteed deliveries--but I do wonder if it will come at a cost of raising the Prime membership. Last fall there was a discussion that Prime was going to be raised from $79 annually to $99 annually when it came time to renew leaving me wonder if that's where they are headed.</blockquote>
