The race is on...

I ordered from both CSI and MM on 2/16.

I received shipment notification from CSI on 2/24 with FedEx tracking.

I received shipment notification from MM on 2/25 with UPS tracking.

CSI Shipment departed Orlando, FL on 2/25 @ 1:03am.

MM Shipment departed St. Louis, MO on 2/25 @ 10:03pm.

CSI shipment is currently in Ohio

MM Shipment is currently in IL

I am 20 minutes south of Green Bay, WI...so my guess is that MM will be here on Friday and CSI will get here next Monday.

Ok, so now I'm imagining your shipments on the map with the red lines tracking them like in Indiana Jones. Complete with the theme music.

Is it a coincidence that my...

  • Edge of the Empire massive book buy (EotE core, 6 suppliments, plus AoR core for good measure) being shipped from CSI in Florida via FedEx

...and my...

  • wave 6 order from MM (2 of each ship, 1 most wanted) being shipped from St. Louis via UPS

...are both scheduled to arrive Friday?

I'm going to be very busy this weekend!

If both trucks show up at the same time, I'm taking photos. ;)

Yes, I can see that in mind. Looking at the tracking, both trucks left around 4:30am cst and mapquesting showed me they are both roughly 8 hrs away. Wonder if both trucks might arrive on Friday. yet I will be gone over the weekend to pick up an different toy.

What this makes no sense people who ordered way after me have gotten their email already. I haven't gotten my email yet? What gives MM?

I pre-ordered in January, and just received an email stating that my order has shipped. Mid-Illinois isn't too far from STL, so I'm hopeful it will arrive tomorrow.

Tracking says mine will be here Friday...right when I'm leaving town. Balls.

Wow you are not having any fun with this at all...

:mellow:

Shipped!

Sorry :P it's been a rough week, and S&V was gonna be my feel-better gift.

However, it looks like I may not be leaving after all. Here's to a scummy weekend!

What's the point of pre-ordering, when stores have it and now other people who ordered after me have gotten theirs too.

Is customer service dead in america? They have earned 3 months interest on my money so far.

This is crazy!

Arrg!

My pre-order on 1-21-2015 just changed status to shipped 5 minutes ago(2:30pm US Eastern 2-26-2015)

Pre-order on 2-6-15 Shipped yesterday (2-25-2015) and is in Columbus, Oh for delivery to Fairborn, OH tomorrow(2-27-2015)

The sad part is the order that just shipped(1-21-2015) is my bulk order.(4 M3-a's, 2 StarVipers, 3 IG-2000s, 2 Most Wanted)

luckily I went to a FLGS and bought some more things so I will have everything I need for this weekend.

If you want it right away, buy from your FLGS. If you want it at a 30% discount, buy online. If you want it at a 30% discount and right away, you might want to take a second look at your expectations.

No FLGS stores anywhere near me. Or I would do that. I wouldn't mind if they were slow and in order, but I know people who ordered after me and spent less money and got their stuff from MM already. That's why I'm angry. It's like someone butted in front of me at the store. There I would state get in the back of the line, but here I can do nothing.

Instead once again it shows why America has been on such a decline over the past few years. Customer Service and Loyalty to customers is very poor right now.

First come first serve used to be a motto we could all live by, but now it's whoever. Just get it out the door. Shame really!

I'm hoping this is a parody of something, because if you're seriously using the fact that your toys will be arriving a day late as an example of the decline of America then that's, uh... a little worrying.

You know what I mean. Right now everyone on my group 7 players will have their models for this Saturday. Now I order before all of them and spent more money. Yet 3 of the 7 have theirs already and the other 4 have delivery for tomorrow or saturday. While my order hasn't even been shipped yet. It's just seems wrong that can happen.

Did you all order from MM? If so I'd contact their CSR and ask them about it. I thought MM used a FIFO type system.

I'm not far from you—a few miles east of La Crosse. Preordered separately, got CSI confirmation first. It's expected on 2/28 but just left Orlando this morning so I wouldn't be surprised if it was Monday. MM delivers tomorrow.

Yep! All from MM. It's just make no sense. I'm at work, so I can't call them till I get home.

Finally got my notiFication!

Yeah I've still got to say, that sounds like a pretty first-world problem to have. Who knows the rhyme or reason to MM's shipping order, but really, who cares? As long as they deliver the products you ordered in a timely fashion it seems like they're fulfilling their end of the bargain. As long as you don't find out that they're shipping non-preorder sales before yours, I'm not sure there's much to do but wait and be bummed.

That's what I'm worried about.

I experienced this with MM when I preordered Wave 4. As soon as the wave was announced, I preordered...then a month before the wave arrived, I ordered more from CSI. I ended up getting the CSI order a week before MM...but my frustration was following a thread on here and seeing others get their shipment confirmation and they ordered months after me...then I finally received my shipment confirmation and already playing with the ships CSI sent.

Who cares? If one customer orders and MM sits on their money collecting interest FOR MONTHS...then that person's shipment should take priority over someone else who preordered a week before the wave is available.

Yeah i'd of gone with out of control campaign financing leading to corporations having far too much influence on government myself.

Personally, I have given up on preordering months in advance. I just order a week or so before I think the wave is coming out and I split my business betweem MM and CSI. One way or the other, I get the new stuff soon enough.
