Yes, Planet Express might have been a better shipping choice. When FedEx advised my expected delivery date was Dec. 7, I put a vacation hold on deliveries as I had to travel out of state. So, obviously, for the last two days (Dec. 6 & 7) they’ve been trying to deliver it anyway. I suppose it will be returned to Purism before I get back home, and I’ll have to contact customer service and wait some more.

UPDATE: Lucky, I guess, but FedEx delivered this morning, 12/9.

Because I ordered the SIMple, my phone was being held until such time as the SIM problems are rectified. I finally emailed support who offered to send the phone order and later send the SIM order when the problems are solved. I received the phone and will familiarizing myself with it and (since I do not use the “cloud” I’ll be hand entering stuff like contacts and calendar data.

Special orders vary, and may delay shipping: my address verification was emailed back this last summer(July 2022), but I ordered AweSIM and my shipping seems to be delayed because of the changing of service provider for AweSIM. No worries on my part as when I receive my L5 the software will be farther along than last summer :wink:

It has been fun just watching all the L5s being shipped out and knowing that there is Linux phone dev and support happening with all our support!

My 9rder date (31/01/2019) is getting tantalizingly close. But I haven’t received the confirmation mail just yet.
There must have been peak in the orders in the last week before the price hike, I guess.
Is there anyone out there who ordered on the same date who has received The Mail?

Mine was a day before you on 30/1/2019 and I have not yet received a confirmation email. However, someone on 29/1/2019 has as of December 7, 2022. So we are almost two weeks later and it seems like there have not been anymore confirmation emails since those for Jan 29 and before.

Shipping isn’t strictly monotonic, the exact order may depend on region to ship to, whether there were some accessories selected etc; some devices may even ship independently from Europe, and I believe confirmation e-mails are being sent in small batches anyway. So while other people’s order dates can give you a pretty good approximation of where in the queue is your order, it’s not an exact data point that can be simply extrapolated like that.

Yeah, but unfortunately it’s the best information available to work with at this time.
