    Foreigner visit the US next week. Was planning to order one directly to my hotel since it says it ships in 3 to 5 business days. Are you guys receiving yours on time? Or should l abort my plan thanks

      So i live in Seattle, ordered on the 18th and it went into shipping yesterday. Tracking number says it won’t be here until the 29th… So use that info as you need. As someone who has shipped to a hotel you can sometimes have things arrive early and have the hotel hold it. Just call the hotel and see what they are willing to do.

        Yeah what’s up with Seattle UPS - usually so good. My LE was ordered t+36mins, I had origin scan on 21st and now due 28th. I had an order from mouser arrive yesterday - it took 7 days too. Very odd.

          From what people have posted, it looks like most of the PNW shipments won’t arrive until next week.

      I ordered the LE on the 20th at 11pm. The estimate at thst time was 1-2 weeks for delivery but it got packaged that same night and received the “We’re preparing your items to ship” email at 11:30 am yesterday.

      The tracking number (UPS) did not update until ~10pm and it’s estimated to be delivered next Wednesday. I believe thats due to the holiday and weekend getting in the way. That’s a delivery to TX btw, shipped from an IL warehouse.

      I’m really surprised at how fast Valve shipped it, especially after seeing many posts about day 1 orders stuck at the “packaged items” step.

      I hope this info helps you make a decision, and that you’re able to get yours soon!

        I’m in Texas too and this is my exact experience! Ordered Monday(surprised LE was still available) and was expecting a long wait since it seems they were backlogged but yeah my tracking number was good by yesterday. Wednesday of next week is my ETA as well. Something must’ve happened with that error on launch day. I guess it’s good to wait sometimes. Although I didn’t wait on purpose. I had no clue and was looking at laptops. Then this hit my radar.
