EDIT IT CAME EARLY AND I LIKE IT

Oh they're showing estimates now? Let's check.

:(

    I put my order in about 30 minutes after the reservation queue went live and I also show a September estimated date. I'm interested, when did you get your reservation in?

    I don't remember for sure, I think it was early afternoon that day?

    Edit: Got the confirmation email from my reservation 1:10pm May 8th

    I didn't get any confirmation

    If it helps. That is the "earliest estimate"

    Pretty sure, every controller they have is going to go out with the Frame or the Machine from now til then. Need to justify the (almost guaranteed) $1000+ MSRP.

  • I was imagining they just didn't want to give too specific of estimates, so before September just means anytime between now and September (with September being the latest possible time you could get it). I guess we will see though, I imagine they definitely want stock to be able to ship with Machines though, so maybe they will slow out the amount they send out.

    Just "2027" for me. I was no slouch on reserving, either.

    Edit: wait I'm an idiot, this says reserve now?! I definitely reserved!

    Edit 2:

    I did reserve, I got the chance to buy it 6 days ago, it expired 3 days ago, I never saw it. That sucks. Didn't even get a push notification on the steam app. Just an email I missed.

    Man this sucks. Not angry with Valve, it seems they far, FAR underestimated demand, but with the entire industry being on fire I also sort of understand. I'm a computer guy and when people want to buy hardware from me I spiral in to a dark place because it's practically impossible and my prices are so huge they'd be insane to even speak to me again.
