a) Ordered twice, really...Once way back during the first days of pre-order. Then I got a STL offer along with THX 1138. Cancelled my old order and re-ordered with STL. Don't remember the date.
b) Mine shipped late Sunday evening from Lexington, KY. UPS got it apparently on Monday.
c) Got it (today) Wednesday. For about $6-8 cheaper than what my Wal-Mart was selling them for.

a) mid-august, with free shipping option.
b) shipped 9/20, UPS Ground from Delaware
c) received 9/21, northern Virginia
* Amazon said they would ship 9/28, with estimated delivery time in early October. I ended up getting it on release day.

I'm curious to know in what condition the boxset came in. I ended up picking my copy at Best Buy, and was really surprised at how flimsy the actual box was. Several were dinged up. Everyone got theirs from online shops ok?

Ordered March 30, with STL and free (slow) shipping.
Shipped September 17 via UPS.
Currently it is "out for delivery" so I'll get it later this afternoon (September 23). Not bad for $37.79.

thanks for all the answers. oddly enough, i got mine the same day i posted it. i checked the mail and it wasnt there so i was like "damn maybe tomorrow"
well UPS came along later that day and i had it! not in the great condition that others who ordered from amazon are reporting but still its ok. has a few creases in it.
