For those of you who have had FedEx shipping in the US, has everyone had the Fedex Home Delivery tier of service instead of a more defined arrival guarantee? Sad to see them cheaping out here, when I ordered my Index it had free 3 day shipping. At least would have been nice to offer us the opportunity to pay for better....

Home Delivery here. When I ordered the Vive, I'm pretty sure they either next day or 2nd day that shipment. I would have paid for a better option here as well.

Not going to lie hype seriously deflating, still getting it but man has the excitement have left me.
Gotta be honest I'm super happy I'm in the Q2 block just because so many issues are being sorted before I get mine. I wish we had a full windows experience as well with the same kinds of controls. But I'm still very excited.

It's pretty insane to have free international 1 day shipping.
That's usually $500 US-Canada

52 minutes until 8pm. Don't think I'll get mine today. Fucking fedex
That always blows.

I remember I was waiting to get a laptop from FedEx, it ended up not getting delivered, but I love 15min from the FedEx shipping center in my area Soni was able to pick it up right before they closed.

Ugg, was originally showing as early delivery today, but now back to tomorrow. This package has been through no less than seven different waypoints on its journey from Illinois to Arizona and is now sitting mere miles from my home at the depot but won't attempt a delivery until tomorrow. Valve, for the love of god, give people the option to pay for better shipping. I would have gladly ponied up the extra money to avoid the hell that is FedEx Home Delivery.

Mine says the same thing. It said estimated delivery was Monday over the weekend, and this morning it says tomorrow with the same message.

Mine still says today but the last scan is still in a neighboring state. Here's hoping. The routing of shippers can be esoteric.

When do the emails usually go out? I'm still listed as Q1 (Jan-Mar) so I'm expecting an email today.

You can see why Valve decided to clarify when exactly the quarters are. Even with it explicitly stating what months fall into the quarter, it's still confusing people.

they said they are expecting production to ramp up so it makes sense that the after Q3 orders are now in Q3

That's good I just can't believe how far I ended up I ordered day one of pre orders order went thru at 11:28am PDT not mad though I can wait hopefully it's more sorted out quality and software wise by then.
