I ordered my copy of the Serenity RPG book from the website on Tuesday morning as soon as I read the news on here about the availability.. but everytime I check my order status at the Dragonlance store, it still says "payment pending".. which I would assume means my order is still being processed. But I remember reading somewhere that they were trying for 1-2 day shipment? It's friday now, and $10 shipping cost seems a bit much since I'm still waiting for the order to be even processed. I'm mostly just curious if anyone else has had similar problems or none at all? Cause I would have waited for it to reach local stores had I known, lol.

They did mention in threads here and on the official site the (small) staff was going to be out for the latter part of this week at a convention, but would get back to processing orders on Monday.

I don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's hard to pronounce.

My order's been delayed as well (and it's not directly from MWP)... I think they misjudged the interest in the game.

Here's the relevant quote from that thread:


Quote:

We will fill all orders that come by noon tomorrow (Wednesday 12:00 PM CDT) but all that come after will be held until Monday, September 26th, as the MWP staff will be out of the office attending Serenity-related events in California. Thanks everyone!

I ordered mine on Monday, it says the payment cleared, but there's nothing listed for Order Status. It just says:

Order status:
Delivery method: USPS Priority Mail (U.S. Residents Only)
Payment method: PayPal (Status : Cleared)

So... I assume it's on it's way? Or maybe not? They said all ordered recieved before Wednesday would be sent? But maybe there was a delay?
It's not the delay, it's the not knowing that bugs me.

Two questions I'd ask (and for which I don't have an answer):

1. How long after an order is clicked through does it take to show up on someone's desk for processing.

2. How long after an order is boxed up and sent off to shipping does it take for someone to update the web page status?

I'm anxious and eager for my own order status, and I specificially cancelled my Amazon order in favor of a direct one because I believed it would get to me quicker. Still, they're a very small shop and mayhap (I hope, for of such things are fanbase estimates made) orders are coming in thick and fast, so I can be patient.

It came! It came in the mail today! And it is so very shiny! Now I just need to find some people to play with! (My roomate says he's too busy, and my co-worker, who is usually all over these types of games, is not overly interested in jumping into a new game, even if it is Serenity.) But all the same, it's got some neat info. I'd alwas wondered what the planet Shadow was like. :)
