That will finish it for me...

"Your account has a gap of two days or more between your set handling time and your actual handling time. You can choose to close this gap by manually setting an accurate handling time on your account and SKUs or by enabling automated handling time.
On September 25, 2024, your handling time gap will be measured, and if it remains above two days as per our policy for on-time delivery, you will be auto-enrolled into having automated handling time enabled and will no longer be able to disable automated handling time. "
So this is the second time I will be punished for delighting buyers with early delivery by being forced to make promises I can't always keep, disappointing buyers, getting negative feedback and other issues because instead of early, items are delivered late (USPS is good about that lately)
I will delete every SKU they force this on and close out if it affects too many. of course first I will have a few late shipments as I don't care what they tell me, i KNOW what days I can ship or not. So it's my fault that some buyers purchase on a shipping day and it goes out that same day, while others purchase 3 hours later and it CAN'T go out until 3 days later?
I am so tired of everything here.....

@SEAmod , This is an Issue.. We are in a small rural area and USPS has just Added 4 days to all rural mail routes in Our State (oregon).. they have removed all local sorting hubs.. and USPS will no longer deliver anything on Saturdays /(nationwide) except Priority mail.. You are attempting to destroy the rest of us by forcing unreal Handling and Shipping times upon us..
Please do not mess with our Handling Times as this will just make all Amazon customers very unhappy. USPS has made sever changes to the Delivery system in the USA and you should already know this..
Extra 4 days for all Mail delivery now is standard for all address in the USA and No more Saturday deliveries except Priority mail ..
Amazon making changes to our Preset handling times should not happen and shoudl not be allowed..
WE work for ourselves, not Amazon!. @SEAmod Please do not let them do this.

And this is why I have a significant number of orders that came in over the weekend, that I could easily have shipped today, but am holding off until Tuesday so that I can keep that "gap" lower than 2.
Yes, Amazon policy is FORCING us to give worse customer service.

This. All those newbies getting "approved" in Nike, Adidas, Funkopop and many, many more: they create or jump on listings, they send in inventory and Amazon confiscates and destroys their items. Just one example, but that can ruin the enthousiasm and joy of young people.

They never give up, aren't they? They will eventually penalize the account for early delivery...Why not? They have the outrageous "low stock" fines. It is going into absurd.

But it's all about profit. If they ran an honest, fair selling site, they couldn't line their pockets with our work and struggles. Educating new sellers isn't going to put money from their failed ventures into their pockets. 0 morals, money is all that matters. (Just saw Brigitte already said this much...)

Very bad policy.
At least they say they will not de-activate over late shipments re items that get entrapped by this monstrous policy.

LOL, yeah....right.......

Too many Amazon employees sitting around with nothing to do except to dream up outrageous, monstrous, hurtful, and idiotic policies that antagonize and torment long time sellers. Ideas are then passed up the Amazon food chain until they arrive at the desks of prime candidates for induction into the "Peter Principle" hall of fame.
