    Well, now “anyone” can at least. Before only a couple random people were able to walk into best buy and purchase them, lol. Unfortunately I made the mistake of buying mine directly from meta. Turns out they either don’t have or didn’t use a distribution center in Canada. So mine will still be a week. I’ll spend this week trying to not buy one in person I guess.

    Any time I encounter shipping issues like this, it brings to mind the WoW 10 year surprise statuettes. Literally 30 minutes after first hearing they even existed, mine was at my door in a small town in Canada. They manage to surprise simultaneously ship those to the whole world all within such a short window. No leaks, no early arrivals… a few late arrivals since part of the surprise nature of it meant that some players didn’t have a current address on file with their credit cards. But other than that, an amazing success, and demonstration of the possibility of such a thing.

    The pqckage delivery person was so curious what it was when he handed it to me. Since there was so much buzz about them in their community. I didn’t get a chance to show him, but I did let him know what I assumed it was, correctly as it turns out. Though I did caveat that it couldn’t possibly be, as the first one had only just been delivered minutes ago. I assume news spread pretty quick in their community afterwards.
