Interesting and why am I not surprised. That kind of abuse of the system is an invitation to anything to be shut down IMHO. As the wonderful first post by darwin76 has indicated, we should work collaboratively to extend the offer and maximize the benefit, but not to kill it. I am sure some here will not agree with me. Anyhow, now I wonder what other "tricks" he may have to announce during the DO.

Btw, my 9/23 order is showing in process, too... I suspect that if the inventory is really completed, then the shipping will resume soon and don't be surprised to get shipping confirmation over the weekend, which happens sometimes especially when the backlog is huge.
