I don't really mind waiting since it was so cheap. I'm hoping that I will totally forget about it and then get a surprise present in the mail one day.

I was thinking the same thing. Even with cheap parts and slave labor I would think the actual shipping costs would be more than what they're charging, right? Not that I know much about any of that.

Up next, how an overseas amazon seller scammed a small internet forum out of dozens of dollars.

(Seriously though I bought one and I'm excited)

Isn't next week the big China music/guitar show? I'm betting (hoping) it's a distributor clearing out old inventory, at/close to cost, to make room for the new.

Could be, I saw some reference on a youtube video of this delay being a PT2399 design presumably but nothing else is to be found of it so I dunno for sure, sounds cool anyway though...

There's a news story from the past couple weeks that I'm just recalling about how the US Post Office basically ends up subsidizing Chinese shippers who use international mail service. So these sellers can ship to US customers cheaper than a USA importer could. Not a wisely designed system to protect US business.

They just cancelled my order because they said it was damaged and they didn't have a backup. Did this happen to anyone else?
