Status: offline 		Same situation here, status still new. I guess they are shipping as they received the preorders. The one bright spot - must be ALOT of preorders to go thru if mine has not been qued up yet. Awaiting the shipping email and status change, patiently. :p

It can get worse: you wait for a week, then you go out for ten minutes and when you get back you find a yellow sticker on the door saying that they will try to deliver again the next day...

It happened three days in a row to me with Starships Unlimited (errr...it was my wife who was home and was supposed to receive it. At least she SAID she only went out for ten minutes...)

No, the cheapest method was USPS Priority Mail, which is 2-3 days. UPS ground was 95 cents more, and can take 7 days. But mine hasn't shipped yet, and I ordered on the 1st.

Status: offline 		I've found when ordering games from [B]any[/B] company they tend to ship the items with the most expensive shipping options first, regardless of when an item is actually ordered.

In regards to UV, I ordered literally minutes after it was available for pre-order, with the USPS priority mail shipping option (the cheapest), and it has not shipped yet, AFAIK. Of course the advantage of USPS(in addition to being the cheapest) is they deliver on Saturdays. :)

Honestly, a couple of days one way or the other is hardly going to matter. Can't imagine paying the extra 20 bucks or more just to get it a day or 2 sooner... money better spent on more games IMO. :D
