They may argue that your shipping actually was the right one if the shipping takes 2 days (because shipping is not delivery!!!11)
Meanwhile I paid for super saver on getting a lore book for someone in the area + moogle blanket + duality and the moogle blanket only good a shipping label on friday and is being delivered next friday. Plus, the Lore book hasn't even shipped yet for me and my order Date: 2016-10-17 19:04:11 Payment Date: 2016-10-17 19:04:11 (4 minutes after the hour)

Hm, good to know, ty. If I still get it significantly earlier than super saver folk, I guess I'll be ok.
If I had a better idea of Japanese forwarding systems and they sold these stuff through other places, I'd be up on them much faster.
I'd rather be using amazon.jp amazon.com for that matter, amiami or other sites before I used the SE store. It's honestly more of the last resort for me.
Paid for overnight. Still have no lore book.

??? I THOUGHT YOU HAD ONE!
I paid for the cheapest shipping, myself, and according to the UPS tracker I'm due to get it tomorrow (well, later today, seeing as it's after 4 AM here, I've just not gone to bed yet). Local post office received it on Monday.
I'm excited because honestly I kinda stopped checking and just figured it'd be some vague time in December because I kept hearing all these different things about when it was supposed to ship. <_>
It's super lame that all the people who paid for the faster shipping didn't get it :/ Here's hoping you all can get refunds at least on the shipping cost.

If Shoshopu is getting theirs tomorrow, and you still haven't, I'd definitely get a refund.
I suspect it's not necessarily the shipping companies that are to blame... I should have got mine 5 days ago (in EU), and still haven't. Unless ALL world shipping companies are suddenly being utter shit, yeah, I suspect SE stores here.

It's always the SE Online store.
Always.
-stares at book that has not been even started-
Buying book for friend who was stuck working a convention did not turn out well. They still haven't even shipped it out.
After a ridiculously long wait I finally received mine yesterday. And I was one of the ones who paid for overnight shipping. Never again. If I purchase anything else from the SE store it'll be with normal shipping. This was unacceptable =/.
I got mine yesterday too. After paying for overnight shipping. Feh.
I just got an email maybe 30 minutes ago telling me I could go ahead and order a book since I was on the wait list, and that they're currently being manufactured with plans to ship in November. Fingers crossed for my fellow wait list pals.
Confirmed here. Â Was able to get mine ordered with the link in the email they sent. Â
Looks like after 48 hours they are opening the remaining alotted inventory to the public:
Quote:"Due to signing up to be notified for the next shipment, you will have the chance to make a purchase from the available units in the second printing batch. Please understand that this email does not guarantee that you will be able to purchase a book from the second printing quantity.
This will be limited to the users on the wait list for 48 HOURS starting on Tuesday, October 25, 2016 at 12:00 PM PDT. After that time, the remaining quantity will be available for purchase from the website until gone. Users will be able to purchase one book per order. After the second printing allotment has run out, sales will cease once more.
Please note that the second printing of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA EORZEA is currently being manufactured and is scheduled to begin shipping at the end of November."
People who ordered the second wave gonna get their books before mine even arrives.
WHY IS IT STILL IN MIAMI? HUH? WHAT'S IT DOING THERE ON VACATION? I'D LIKE TO BE IN MIAMI RIGHT NOW.
Placed my order for the lore book, I got the very basic shipping but I'm okay with that. Can't wait to get it! ^_^

Someone posted on reddit that their usps delivery of the lorebook went from Tennessee to Florida to Kentucky to Canada back to Kentucky.
Several stops in Florida including Miami.
