Makes me appreciate that I got my set yesterday though. Already two episodes in and despite the proto-Band of Four stuff being annoying the Leaud conspiracy is possibly the best thing I've seen from Rivette.

I received a dispatch email on January 15 and my set just arrived today in Michigan. So I would say it is still too early for panic. Also, I would like to note that I thought my set was packed very carefully - thanks Arrow!

My Rivette box set arrived yesterday in New Jersey. \:D/

Sorry to say I'm relieved to hear others are still waiting. I got the Jan. 15 email and wrote to Nicole this afternoon.

Got it in Melbourne, Australia this morning.

I received two days ago Deep Red (dispatch stamp 19 Jan) and Nikkatsu Noir (dispatch stamp 25 Jan).
But no Rivette yet, supposed to have been dispatched on 15 January.

Mine was despatched on the 15th according to my packing slip. Must have just taken a while to make it down here (15 business days by my count).

I got the email saying it was dispatched on the 15th. Ordered the Yoshida box on the 19th of Jan and still got it before the Rivette set. Curious how many people who preordered from the states still haven't received their order?

No Rivette yet either ("shipped" the 15th).

Also have Deep Red coming from Amazon (shipped the 22nd), and decided to give the Dreyer box a third shot (this time from Amazon again (per their recent £10 off £50)), it shipped the 24th.

So three box sets are slow in getting here (thought I might have received Deep Red today but it was an order shipped even more recently (the 27th) than all those others), Rivette being the longest overdue.

Edit: So it really shipped 1/22 (per date stamped on shipping box), and I got it 2/5. (Which also means those Amazon orders should be appearing any day now too, though the difference between shipped 1/20 (Arrow sale order) and shipped 1/22 (Arrow Rivette order) ended up being exactly one week on my end.) (Unlike the Arrow orders, I'm not really looking forward to seeing in what shape those others turn up...)

Finally, the parcel was delivered today. I have never seen so many layers of bubble wraps around a box set. Great thinking on their behalf. I hope you guys get your parcels soon. Also received two other arrow packages, which where dispatched early last week.

Mine arrived today, at long last, in perfect condition. I'm so happy. And now I have to wait until July to watch it.

I feel like half of the board is from Pittsburgh. Hopefully they arrive tomorrow.

Ha, I knew chatterjees was from Pittsburgh, and I just observed today that mizoguchi5354 also lives here. Pittsburgh: the new Oklahoma!

Still waiting for my set. And to think that just a couple weeks ago in the "Where's My Arrow Order?" thread I was praising the miraculous, under 48-hour delivery time of my order from the Arrow sale. I knew I shouldn't have said anything.

Or it reflects poorly on the Royal Mail which has been privatised?

What's privatisation got to do with the likely scenario of the shipment entering the the US distribution and there being a bottleneck either in your postal system or at customs? I've sent some eBay auctions by airmail to the States in the last two weeks and one of those is stuck somewhere too.

I am starting to think the USPS may shoulder most of the blame here. I've had three different orders sent via Priority ("guaranteed" 2-3 day shipping) that have now taken almost a week to even get to my city, much less sorted and out for delivery. Is there some sort of "We give up" movement going on with the mail right now?

Mine arrived today in rural/upstate NY; shipped on 1/22.

I find little evidence to place the blame on USPS. I got two items from Arrow UK this week through Royal Mail / USPS. They were both shipped after the Rivette box (one of them was shipped 10 days after the Rivette box), and I got them already.
We have not seen this kind of mass concern about deliveries from Arrow UK until now.
So there is something about the Rivette Box ......

Set arrived today. All of Pittsburgh rejoice!

I dashed up the hill today after work, excitedly expecting to find the Rivette set on my doorstep, and...nothing.

Saturday delivery did not include this item. I have been waiting for 23 days from the quoted dispatch date of 15 January.
I would appreciate if people who have still not received it indicate so here. That way we can assess how many people are affected, and whether there is any pattern to the problem.
Thank you.

Still nothing here either. Really disappointed, to put it mildly

I live in New Jersey. My Rivette per Nicole was shipped January 15. I'm right now in Florida, so my post office bundles up my mail every Wednesday and forwards it to me in Florida. My mail as of February 3 has not contained the Rivette. Per how it usually goes, I'll start to get uncomfortable if I don't receive Rivette ijn my next shipment.

Just to reiterate my edit above, mine was "shipped" Jan 15, apparently really shipped Jan 22, and I got it yesterday Feb 5, in Colorado. So, real soon, any day now, for the rest of you, since I'm usually one of the last to get these things.

FWIW, I never received any confirmation at all and my order was consistently listed as "at warehouse." I e-mailed Nicole this past Monday (1 Feb) and she responded that my order shipped 18 January. I received it here in Tennessee Thursday, 4 February. As Joaquin Andujar said, "Youneverknow".

Connecticut. Confirmed shipped Jan. 15 by Nicole, so I'm 15 working days (plus 3 Saturday delivery days) out.
