Also anecdotal, but I've noticed that when I pay for shipping, the time it takes for items to leave the warehouse appears to be less compared to selecting "free" super saver for order totals > $X.

Is it really "lower priority", or are they artificially holding it back as a way to bring value to their paid shipping options?
