Is it better and or cheaper to get Amazon Spain to deliver to my home in VRSA or to PU at the Amazon counter or locker in Ayamonte?

Hi,

Are you at home to receive your deliveries?

I am retired, working on my house in Salir and at home most days ( or can order for deliveries when I know I will be here ).  

For me, Amazon deliveries at home work well - but I am not close to VRSA [ I am 15 min North of Loule ].

I collect up my requirements until I pass the 35 Euro free post limit - so 0 costs for the majority of my deliveries.

After 2+ years using Amazon, there seems to be a pattern that all companies arrive here between 12:00-14:00 and if something has not arrived by 17:00 it will come the next day ( most drivers go home at 17:00 ).

So - If you are at home most of the day, I would suggest home delivery are for sure reliable and the cheapest.

I hope this helps.

Ian
