When I first moved here, about 6 years ago, we had an ambiguous address because of the location. (faux-rural)
I bought whatever version of Paint Shop Pro was current at the time, and it ended up going to a lady down the lane.
I contacted the carrier and Amazon, and Amazon sent me another copy free of charge.
The lady finally located me and brought my mail, and I ended up giving her the package.
There was free shipping all around.
Since they implemented the 911 addresses, I've had way fewer mix-ups with my packages.
Just recently had a game and controller delivered 3 days earlier than their estimate, and it was the Super Saver S&H that takes a bit more time.

All in all, good experiences from Amazon.
