Because I hate feeding the Lawyers.
HF is not outside of their October 30 shipping window yet, so I think threatening legal action at this point is a bit premature. I'll wait until Nov. 1 and then assess what my options are.
Mail or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule states you should be able to cancel your order and get a refund at any point before they shipped the product. If you want a refund, you should be able to cancel now, without having to wait until they missed their self imposed deadlines. Of course if you would rather have the product sometime in November, and you are worried you might not get it, then by all means wait, I see no reason yet to believe they will not ship at all.
