It really doesn’t matter a whole lot how long it takes to ship a book. Buyers know that a private seller can’t match Amazon’s speed without undue expense. If the buyer wants the book quickly he should be willing to pay the shipping charges commensurate with extra fast delivery that’s up to him. We all want our Parkers to spend as little time as possible in shipping, and heaven forbid it should spend a weekend in some loading dock or warehouse...
Books are not Parkers - shipping time shouldn’t matter so much. I’d be willing to wait a couple of weeks or more for a book as long as I was given a tracking number.
