I'm not trying to be rude, but if you've bought things from massdrop before, you'll know it's not a fast process by any means. I expect to have this within a couple weeks from now, though I'm not going to be surprised if that doesn't happen. The fastest I ever got a drop was maybe a week and a half. That was also a case where the manufacturer drop shipped the items directly to the buyers. If Massdrop has to get items in to their warehouse (actually an old canned popcorn factory in brooklyn), it'll take an extra week because they have to get the items shipped to them (2-3 days transit), repackage the items into shipping boxes and print labels, etc (usually a day or two), and then ship them to the buyers (another 2-3 days in transit). So you're looking at anywhere from 5-7 days minimum from release to get your item if it has to go to MD first.
These are being shipped directly from the manufacturer, so the delay here isn't on massdrop's part, it's on the vendor's side.
protip: if you want it now, go buy it. If you can wait a month for it (and the price is cheaper), massdrop it.

aumryshI appreciate that you're trying to be polite, but Massdrop can't use the word "presale" in the title without creating certain expectations. If I purchase something anywhere else as a presale, I expect to receive it before it hits shelves - that's kind of the point.
Massdrop, in general, is really dropping the ball lately. I've already cancelled one drop (the ErgoDox fiasco) due to misleading description and overwhelming delays. If we don't get tracking numbers TODAY, I'm demanding another refund and this will be the last you see of my little chess knight around here.

aumryshIf that is the case, they need to reflect that in their shipping date which they did not. If they said it shipped 9/21 I would of not purchased the drop.
