If your items are taking weeks to arrive, the web retailer may be based in a different country.
Amazon does not offer an easy option to filter out foreign-based sellers.
if you would like to stick with US-based sellers, there are hints from Wish.com that a seller is outside the country.
- Look at shipping time: Longer than a few days, with no option to get it in 48 hours? It's probably coming from another country.
- Read online reviews.
- Check the seller with the Better Business Bureau .
- Google the seller's name with the word "Whois" to see where the website is registered.
Just because a product is shipping from overseas doesn't mean you'll have problems.
But it usually means a much longer wait (two to six weeks, if not longer), plus you can have extra expenses if you need to return something.
