good for me, bad for my budget

[wednesday_10_00]

I got two separate shipping notifications from Amazon Japan last night (one for one(!) item, one for three items--both, btw, coming from the same facility in Chiba) from an order that I wasn't expecting to ship until April. Have they changed their "group items in as few shipments as possible" policy or something?



Is there any point in trying to understand Amazon's policies?
