Sounds like more emails went out around 2 EST. They look like later orders, even 50xxx.

Oh no. Not again.

Post by **Jbishop216** » Mon Jul 01, 2013 12:27 pm

It sounds like those were processing emails not shipped emails.

Post by **Jalaman** » Mon Jul 01, 2013 12:28 pm

I'd hope they're just switching more orders to processing because all currently processing orders are going to be filled by the current stock...

I hope...

It is probably the 1000 units that were sent to customs after that batch of 2500 cleared.

Exactly, makes me pretty confident that my Rift will be here this or next week.

Good point. Still, lots of tweets about shipping emails today. As a 201XX it just makes me feel a little...

edit: Though honestly I'm confident the wait is over, we'll see how it goes.

LOL at the Rift Behind poster!

It reminded me of the Kirk Cameron video where the other guy talks about the marvels of the banana's "design"

No I think that the people who are just switching to processing today aren't in the 3500 rifts that were stuck in customs at all. All 3500 of those people are the ones who switched to processing in late May.

They must have the next batch, the one after the customs batch, arriving in the country soon. Let's just hope they get the 3500 from the last batch shipped before they start shipping this new one lol.

Got my "processing" email today around 2pm central time. That's the good news. The bad news, my motherboard went out last night. Not sure if I want to wait for an RMA or just buy a new one >.<

Oh and here's the usual info asked for.

Order ID: 048XXX
Purchase Date: Mar 30, 2013
Location: Texas, US

You can probably RMA your motherboard and get it back around the same time you get your Rift. Especially if your motherboard manufacturer does cross shipping.

It's an ASUS board. I already called in for the RMA, but they have to check and see if they have any in their warehouse. It's a 2011 model that's no longer being manufactured. If they don't have one, the only option is to send it in and wait for them to fix it, and who knows how long that'll take. I built the computer almost 2 year's ago, and it just had to go out at the same time as my rift is about to show up.

Oh yeah, if they don't have any in stock that could cause problems. Fortunately, the only time I've ever had to RMA was for the Sandy Bridge cougar point problem and they had plenty of those in stock.

Me too! No more rude photoshops for me this week! Glad things are running smoothly Oculus. Can't wait for you guys to try the game ideas I've been cooking up for months. See you in the Rift!

Pretty sure I literally threw out my shoulder high-fiving my housemate.

44XXX just received shipping notification!

Post by **mgood** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 5:26 am

I was in the stuck customs batch too (45k) and got my shipped email from Oculus at 10pm Pacific Monday. It is due to arrive on Friday the 5th. I am in Oregon. I haven't gotten anything from UPS MyChoice yet.

Post by **everix92** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 6:15 am

Order 44274, got my shipped email late last night. Unfortunately, the estimated delivery is on Monday (I'm in Kansas). Here's to hoping for an early delivery.

Post by **AussieMike** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 6:35 am

Anyone down under hear anything yet? I'm still at "ready" like I have been since last year. You'd think these people are shipping them here on the endeavor with captain cook at the helm! Yep I'm fed up with this bs, and don't bother saying poop to me about patience if u ordered this year and have yours already cos I really doubt you'd be licking oculus 's arse if u had to wait so long without any useful information from this company.

Post by **iceman25c** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 7:30 am

#468XX shipping to North Texas! Delivery scheduled for Friday.

Post by **Kaibosh** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 8:43 am

480xx still stuck in Processing.... 35 days and counting.

Post by **Drewbdoo** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 8:44 am

Ok, 459xx here, and still nothing. In the past, it was expected that people didn't get tracking info but they seem much more on their ball lately. Except I've still gotten nothing :/

Post by **3dvison** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 5:53 pm

So about what number range would an order placed today be in ?

Post by **mscoder610** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 6:26 pm

http://riftorders.aws.af.cm/

Looks like they're up to 593xx already

Post by **play2lose** » Tue Jul 02, 2013 8:02 pm

439XX - Still processing

I was one of the first 2 or 3 people in the 4XXXX batch to post that I was processing too. Hopefully mine is shipped and they just didn't update it yet.
