Anyone Have Their Amazon STAR WARS shipped yet?
Ordered mine on April 1st, and my order hasn't even gone into the "preparing for shipping" process yet. Wondering if it's just me...
I know Amazon doesn't usually ship until the day before or the day of street date...but my experience has been that orders are "prepared for shipping" (meaning you can't go in and change your order) a good three to four days before shipment.

Someone on Theforce.net message board said that theirs shipped yesterday from Amazon...but Mine I pre-ordered considerably late (August 13th) and the estimated shipping is Sept. 28th (even though it usually ships out earlier before estimated) and my order still doesn't show shipping soon or anything yet either.

Thanks to this thread I checked my status and the order was cancelled!! Apparently my CC didn't go through, but the thing was I didn't need a CC on the order thanks to GCs. So I called and the dude let me reorder, bumped me to 2 day shipping and instead of being slated to ship on the 28th, it's now shipping on the 20th via Fedex

I ordered back in March and my Star Wars set shipped out on Thursday from Amazon.com. That might have to do with my location though. When I lived in VA it would ship out day before or day of release date. Now that I live in Hawaii it ships out a couple days before to make up for the distance I guess.
EDIT: Just showed up today, 9/20.

Mine still shows a Sept 28 estimate for shipping.
Well, this would appear to be the 2nd Amazon order in a row (my Hitchcock had the STL screw-up) that is NOT being handled efficiently.

Preordered 4/5. "Shipping soon". Estimated delivery 9/27 - 29.
While I don't regret preordering from them, I'm not exactly impressed either. You'd think with something this popular and high profile they might make a point of trying to impress us. If they did get it to me on release day you can bet I'd preorder stuff from them all the time. As it stands, I'll only do it again if I'm feeling too lazy to hit a B&M.
