Do you mind sharing the first three digits of your Reference number? (this is non-identifying info) That will be more useful for helping us track timing. I'm guessing you're somewhere around 589****

I ordered one on May 30th, and one on June 1st. I got the 30th already, just waiting on the 1st.

( and then two more two weeks later... LOL )

I'm 588; nice buying spree! Surprised any were left mid June to buy

Yeah, some restocking still going on. Not sure if they're new imports, or stuff that was already at the warehouses?

Now shit, so if you were still 588, and I was 588... they haven't even cleared 10,000 in 8 days. That's not great!

As far as I can tell from the time between two approved transfer numbers in the 588 range, it works out to about 400 approvals a day.
