Good enough for me knowing there are chips on the move

Oh, I was going to oblige on the shipping notice but pictures of chips aren’t going to happen for a while ;)

How sad am I? I paid for my set back in Dec 2020 and waited almost a full year to receive them. And right up until I received my shipping notice not once did I find the wait unbearable. But then I see posts like @Eloe2000 and @JeepologyOffroad above and suddenly I turn into this freak:

To my fellow FDL folks, I actually had to communicate with them today about a change in my order and asked if he had any idea when FDL would go into production so I could pass it along. He said he is still not sure when it will start. I guess that could be good or bad. Just wanted to pass along the latest most up-to-date information to you guys with that mold ordered. He was sure that I was behind a double digit number of you guys. I guess when I see you start popping that pron, I’ll know mine are getting close

Double digits means hopefully we get to see lots of chip pics! I still wish we had an idea of how many people off PCF ordered. Always feel like we should see more pics than we do.

He said there were 13 FDL orders ahead of mine. I do not know how many are members here. I’m probably near the end and/or maybe even last.

Thanks for the update @Tonysquander.

I put my FDL order in first week of December. Don't know where in the queue, but I'll just be happy when the mold goes in and starts running. I had thought I'd see chipes in maybe June, but sounds like that may not be the case...

I was informed one time that the time you placed your order doesn’t necessarily matter because chips are pressed by color. Meaning, if the first base color being pressed is Dayglo Peach they will press everyone’s dayglo peach first. And go through the colors that were ordered by everyone. So you might be the last order placed but first to receive your order. Not sure if this is 100% accurate. Just what I was told but makes sense from an efficiency standpoint.

It does make sense. Nevertheless, I readjusted my expectations to a July/August arrival. Do they usually run the same mold at the same time each year? If so, when did the FDLs start shipping last year?
