What I'm saying is that there is one line. Prime members get their items and get in line. And non members get shuffled off to the side into a waiting room for a coupe days and then are released to go get in line.
Shuffled off to the side a couple days? Where did you get that from? They're shipping an average of about 3.3 million packages a day, every day, 365, and that's not an up to date number. Prime goes first, then the people who ordered two days ago, then the people that ordered yesterday, next you and the rest of the people that ordered today. Nobody gets put on hold unless there's a problem, because that fucks the efficiency. Bezos is about efficiency above all else.

You can't seriously expect the largest retailer in the world to drop everything while they find, pick, box and ship your handle? OK everyone, non-prime glatt's handle has shipped, back to the normal routine.
Capitalism, Takin' what they're givin' 'cause you're workin' for a livin'... pay up or shut up.
