Why does it take so long?

"I don't believe it..."

I have just received some paper from Amazon.co.uk that I had ordered Tuesday 13th January (see entry for that day).  This was supposed to be next day delivery.  It clearly wasn't.  Actually I ordered two lots of paper from Amazon.  One was supplied by a HelpdeskIT.biz and the other by Amazon.   The paper from HelpdeskIT.biz arrived the next day - as promised.  The only difference was that the Amazon package was delivered by Royal Mail.   So the question is this - why does it take Royal Mail 3 more days to deliver a package than delivered by a DPD.Co.UK ?  I wish I has an answer to that.

Am I becoming a grumpy old man?  Thinking about it I do have a Victor Meldrew cap.  'I Dont believe it'
