November 18th update:

Two packages were shipped today from Autoline Industries in Mesa, Az.  Expected delivery is the 22nd.  Per Fed Ex, the PO number matches my September 5th order, and each box weighs 32lbs, so it appears miners are being sent.  Which models I'm clueless about - my order on BlokForge is still showing as "Pending (Backordered)" per their website.

I have NOT been advised by Blokforge (or is it Autoline Industries?) about this.

Will keep everyone posted.
