Why save it when you’ll spend more than $35. Unless you want all the parts to build in 2 days and there are special discounts for Prime members.

That's what I did last time and it took over a month for me to get all the parts. I figured that taking advantage of Prime would probably shorten the wait to about a week because I'm importing all the parts from the US.

Check if the sellers are ‘prime eligible’. Not all of them deliver in 2 days. There is a small list of exception. I wanted to buy a product which said 14-20 days for delivery. I ordered using my friend’s Prime account and it still took the same amount of time.

Nice tip. Thanks!
