Midtown Advanced Order Status - SSM Variant

DigsUT · 01-10-2013, 10:23 AM

I noticed that both of my orders are still sitting in "Advanced Order" status. They have yet to go live. Anyone else notice this?

Do you mean the UK version? Did you pre order it? If so what shipping option did you choose. For pre orders at midtown, if you choose the cheapest shipping option they normally wont ship until the end of the month.
I dont know about the UK version, if they had advanced orders or not, never checked. But this is how they handle advanced pre orders, depending on what shipping method you choose

Mine havent shipped yet either. My orders usually ship on or before the release date.

It was the MT Variant and I did choose the most economical shipping method. I just figured it would have been processed at this point.

A lot is going to depend on when you ordered. Both of my orders have been shipped, even using economy shipping..

Yeah thats why i was asking if he Pre ordered it or not. Pre orders take longer to process, a lot longer. Normally when someone pre orders something, they pre order other things as well. They wait until the end of the month to process those pre orders, that way they can ship all the months pre orders together in one package.

I figured it out. I had my Previews shipping monthly, which holds all of my advanced books till the end of the month, to save on shipping. I have since adjusted that.
