    So I ordered my new M15x on the 6th and the estimated delivery date is the 21st. I had some issues getting the order placed, so they decided to refund my next day shipping fee as a bonus (really great).

    The real thing I am wondering though, is how long your machines were in each phase and if you received your system early, on time, or late and possibly why.

    Here is to hoping all of you got your orders incredibly early, Cheers! :D

    tl;dr How long did it take for you to get your system?

    I've been seeing turn around time of 8-10 days, from order to recieve. most of that time is production than 1-2 day for shipping and boxing.

    Anyone else have a story they could share? I am really anxious and hope that it comes early. But I doubt everyone had the same early arrival experience as the previous posters. Anyone?
