I just don't get this system. They wait until the last day then ship it
on a next day delivery :/


It's similar logic to the second-class post system - exactly the same volume
of mail is handled and delivered, but extra work is done separating a
fraction and holding it back 24 hours.

Amazon use the same system with their free delivery - it's just delayed at
their end., Maybe to encourage a few eager people to pay for faster delivery
but still encourage cheapskates like me to spend a bit more on the goods.and
get over the free delivery threshold.
