Thanks for sharing your email. However it's not particularly useful as it is already the 15th and if they were to ship after the 30th it would no longer be in August... I had kind of already assumed this...

Now to address your needless sarcasm...

Let me guess you are an American?

I guess this because it is generally those from the most self obsessed nation on the planet that fail to realise that it is a different date and time at different places on the planet "Gasp!".

I'm sure that this will come as a surprise to you but I posted that at about 10AM of the 14th in my time zone. I know I was a whole 14hrs before it was halfway through the month (according to you). Seriously who fucking cares it's basically halfway through... why must you be such a fucking pedantic arsehole?

I mean do you really think people will read your post a think 'wow that guy he's seriously smart pointing out its not precisely halfway through the month, how clever!'.

The point remains it's approximately halfway through the month and they haven't stated when they will start shipping. Since there are two batches in August and this GB was in the first batch I think they should announce that by now... Also if they do wait until the 30th (as they say they might in your email) to start shipping this GB then it would mean the august batch 2 will not be on time or it got shipped out ahead of these GB orders. Neither of those things are good...
