What shipping did you get and when did you pre-order?
Mine hasn't changed, super saver and order nov 4th, after they added the limmit but before the "we won't have enough" warning, and well before they stoped taking orders themselves...

I ordered on Oct.26 and I had free shipping, but I just called up and had them change it to standard shipping for free after a little complaining and all of a sudden my credit card charged and shipping soon it says. Which hopefully means goes out today with Priority Usps shipping and I'll have it before the holiday to play.

I ordered it 9/29 and had it next day, just in case, because I want this game day one, and mine says that it wont ship until the 26th for some reason and it has not been charged, nor does it say that it will ship soon.
Thats annoying, I might have to call them on this.

hopefully some more people will chime in with amazon pre-order status when it changes on this thread... I can't remember if amazon is one of the places that gets me things overnight when I get cheapo shipping or if it's one of the week behind places... (I get weird delivery shedules at my house...) so I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

Ordered nov 4th with super saver and mine says shipping the 26th as well... I never trust amazon's shipping thing though. I sent them and e-mail and they responded with a big long letter so they obviously have been getting a lot of requests about it. My experience with their support is you get someone who just reads you what you can already see, or you get someone that will actually look into it and give you real info... best of luck if you callem! keep us updated :)

I'm rather torqued that they're shipping on the 20th instead of the 19th.
For every other major release, they guarantee it will be "on your freaking doorstep" on the street date.... if I wasn't getting $30 off the retail price, I'd have cancelled.

What happened was I changed my shipping method recently, and that bumped me to the back of the line, so I wont be getting Rock Band at this point until a week after it comes out, this is extremely upsetting, I guess I can relax for Thanksgiving break then and get some work done before Rock Band arrives.

I work at one of the Amazon offices and we just got word on Thursday that our Full-filament Centers were starting to prepare orders for shipping. The way it basically works is that they base what FC your order comes from with where your shipping address is. Then they arrange the orders so that orders with Next-day, or Priority shipping go out before the Super Saver Shipping. Any units left over after that, are then shipping out with the FSS

None of this makes any sense.
If you ordered before me, why is mine still scheduled for release day??

So I guess within this day you'll know if you have free shipping or usps shipping your order should change. Also for people who have one day air I wouldn't expect those to change until Monday being ups doesn't work today.

What's up forums? I've been one of the many people who have been lurking on here for a while. I noticed this post and felt I should mention I ordered off Amazon on 9/29 with one day shipping and it still shows that my item has not shipped.
I'm scheduled to be shipped on November 20 still. Kinda upsets me that some people's orders are going into processing; while I'm still waiting on mine.

I ordered form amazon, and got super saver. Said I'd would get it between November 16 and December 7. I saw that, and after saying **** that, changed my order to overnight :D. Expecting between November 16 and 27. Much better haha.

If you check your order status and you can still change your shipping method, then it's still not processed. If you can't change or cancel it at all, then it's shipping out very soon. Most of the time, it ships out just a couple hours after that. I do know that quite a few orders were shipping today just because of the high demand.

Thanks for the update from the inside! That's what I was hoping to hear from official support :)
I'm placing my bets on my order arriving before the 26th when they say it will ship. I've had a number of things arrive before they even updated the page to say they were going to ship it to me before. But that's just my area. Based on Hoshal's info it will depend on where you live, how many people ordered and it and what shipping they got...

My status has not changed at all. I ordered it on 9/28 and it still has the old Nov 23rd street date. I took the 1 day shipping as well. Since I didn't really trust Amazon I have a pre-order at GameStop. If it doesn't ship Monday then I will just grab it locally.

I ordered mine July 23rd with next day shipping, and mine says:
Estimated ship date Nov. 23
Estimated arrive date Nov. 26
I just emailed them to double check if my order will be part of the first shipment sent out, and to see if it will ship the 20th or not.

I ordered mine on the 4th of November with One-Day Shipping, it still says Not Yet Shipped with estimated ship/delivery of 20/21. If my status hasn't changed by Monday, then I'm going to make plans on standing in line at Walmart.

Same here. With the exception of mine ship/delivery being 23/26. If I end up with 2 bundles, so be it. I'll put one up on ebay. I HAVE to get this game. By any means necessary.

Your best bet to get any answers, is to call the Customer Service number. 1-866-216-1072
Give them your order number and ask them if it has a shipment ID. If it has one assigned to it, then it's already been shipped, or in the process of shipping and leaving the facility. If it doesn't, they'll just tell you the "estimated" shipping date.

Mine turned to shipping soon - ordered on Nov 1st;
next day shipping.
I'd suggest only posting if you ordered later than the last person,
rather than everyone who ordered from Amazon responding. :)
