Do Not Waste Your Money on Amazon Prime

I ordered 2 items thru Amazon Prime on Friday.  The promised delivery date is today, Sunday, January 24.  They have not arrived.   Instead I got an email with a bogus notice of attempted delivery. 

I deliberately stayed home all day just so I could wait for those items to be delivered.  They did not come.   No one knocked on my door.   No one left a notice of attempted delivery which I should have gotten, if in fact, they actually came to my door.   But no notice was left because no one tried to deliver the items.  It is totally bogus.

Now, when I try to contact Amazon about this problem, I find that it is virtually impossible to contact them or the sellers.   Putting this out on social media is the only recourse I have.
