Only once have I had to wait a few extra days because they got their stock a little slowly from the distributor. I usually ship EMS and that means I usually have the item in hand by mid-week (Thursday at the latest - barring any customs hold-ups). I've used FedEx once (had the item on Tuesday) and SAL once (usual wait time).

Yeah I've paid early at NY multiple times, and other times I've paid closer to the deadline, and it's been up and down when they get something out the door immediately vs when it processes for a few days and then finally ships.

I tend to use SAL, though now that we can split & combine preorders (as long as you attempt to before the initial payment request email arrives, I think) I'll probably be using EMS more regularly for larger orders.

That aside...wow Bravo, Blade Jack, Gaim Jimba, Gaim Kachidoki and Bio Rider will all be in-hand for me by the end of the month or early October.
