I ordered the LE on the 20th at 11pm. The estimate at thst time was 1-2 weeks for delivery but it got packaged that same night and received the “We’re preparing your items to ship” email at 11:30 am yesterday.

The tracking number (UPS) did not update until ~10pm and it’s estimated to be delivered next Wednesday. I believe thats due to the holiday and weekend getting in the way. That’s a delivery to TX btw, shipped from an IL warehouse.

I’m really surprised at how fast Valve shipped it, especially after seeing many posts about day 1 orders stuck at the “packaged items” step.

I hope this info helps you make a decision, and that you’re able to get yours soon!

I’m actually interested in buying one. I live in Mexico so my options are limited. What should I watch for to avoid being scammed? Any tips on how to get one over here? I really hate that I can’t even use my 19 years old steam account to purchase one the legit way. Not even while visiting the US.
