Does anyone know, about amazon UK "Track package":

Is the order fulfilled by amazon, or by sonnics?

The former.

The green line _is_ moving (from Ordered to Dispatched), though I've had
to invoke the Windows 7 magnifier to be sure!

Then the Laxey(?) flooding is irrelevant, it was stocked in an amazon
warehouse, all along.

Was it a free delivery in "up to n days" type of deal? I used to find
you often got next day delivery anyway, but now they tend to make you
wait the full n days, so perhaps the inching along grey/green line is
just a countdown until when they actually chuck it on a van ...

Yes, I see that from the explanation of what FBA means. (Unless they
have warehouses on Man of course!)

Indeed ...

.... and indeed; presumably they were not getting enough takers for
Prime. I just noticed in time when making the order that they'd
defaulted to next day for free with free 30 days trial of Prime.

Could be. I'll see when it reached "Dispatched", to see if it continues
at the same creeping pace to "Out for Delivery" and "Delivered", or if
it pauses and then does those in jerks, as I would have expected in the
first place.

"Dook, that was great but I think the line needs
awe. Can you do it again, giving it just a little awe?"

"Sure, George," said Wayne and looking up at the cross said:
"Aw, truly this man is the son of God."
