What about the backplates? I ordered the blocks while they were still in stock but the backplates were sold out already at that point. Does the same apply for those as well?

Backplates are also in the process of being packed, but may cause a slight delay for orders. 

Sounds good. I would rather wait a couple days and get both than have the blocks and no backplates.

@puft More blocks would have been a longer delay. We said it'd be this week several times, you guys would have been even madder if we made blocks through the weekend and launched it Monday. Seems to be a never ending problem :P

I saw you suggest before that there was a LOT of demand, and that you sold a lot of the blocks already. I guess I might not get an answer to this question, but roughly how many of each of the blocks did you have prepared when you launched them on the website? I understand it's a tricky question, but I think having an answer might help people understand you didn't just prepare 10 and threw them up on the website ;)

Will the EVGA back plates be fine with this? I ask because I already have 3 lol.

In the end I just hope you guys take great pride in the fact that you make a product that is so desirable that people actually get upset when they cannot get it.  sometimes it is like kids at xmas wanting their beenie babies.
 
whats the other side of the coin.  nobody wants your product.  ekwb has a problem that all companies wish they had.
 
happy gaming to all

I guess in this special case it's more about the lack of alternatives Most people participating in this thread would have bought almost any alternative that was available 1-2 months earlier.
 
Monopoly is great! (Hats off they don't milk us by putting them up a lot more expensive... at least 20-30% were possible without losing too many orders lol)
 
I by the way also decided to try making my own block next time. I at least got tools and instruments I can use for that. Of course I don't have the experience but I could have used my personal (probably ugly) block at least a month ago. Anyone else interested?!

I don't want to hassle you guys, but my order didn't get processed yet? I'm posting because it's 5pm over there now and iirc Derick said the people who ordered their blocks while they were in stock would get their orders processed today?

Perhaps you were right at the cutoff and you ordered product that wasn't in stock

Oh no, I must have been one of the first to order, after my order was completed I checked back and everything was still in stock. I guess they're just running a bit behind in processing orders.

Send me your order #

I was also hoping to get one sent out today even though I did miss stock by half an hour or so. It's gonna be a long weekend!

I'm really not that far behind you but missed stock... Did people order a dozen a piece?

I'm just 16 places behind you which I find a little questionable considering you bought them when they first become available, and I, 30 mins or more after they were sold out. Should be 4 per customer limit, but maybe some of those orders count for resellers!

Leyaena
Just out of curiousity, what was the timestamp on your invoice?

Exactly 2 hours after you at 4:59pm their time, so it looks like I may have been about an hour behind the stock depletion.
 
I'm assuming some of those orders count for some resellers who ordered many.
 
 

I placed my order when all was in stock... now in my account i saw only processing it is normal?
