I'm wondering when the physical copies are actually going to ship out. Considering the precise launch date is a week away now, and the Orders tab on the SE store has said Validated for over a week now. What's going on with that?

My collector's edition shipped yesterday from the SE store and i've heard several others talking about how theirs shipped. It shouldn't be long from now.
The way it works is you order it, pay w/e shipping you like and it still arrives on the 23rd. The only thing you are doing is giving the SE store a way to hold off sending your till the 22nd if you pay for over night. I paid for 2 day shipping and mine still has not shipped. I imagine the ones that shipped already paid for ground or something like that and need the extra day to get there. Kinda defeats the purpose of paying for a faster ship if it's just gonna sit there and wait. Never again. Gonna just pay for slow boat and let it still get here on the day of release. Save some money I guess.
I have not received a shipment notice and I pre-ordered physical PC CE on day one. My concern is getting my registration code to fully register the game by the deadline of June 27 ("end" of early access). So I've been wondering this, too.
I even made a thread about this recently. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post3009524
Mine has shown "validated" for a couple of weeks now. I chose the $8.99 "super saver" (5-10 days) shipping.
I did the same as you and I received my shipping notice / tracking number this morning. its coming via UPS Ground for me. I live in AZ so I'm honestly not expecting it till next Tuesday. but since I've got EA it can come when it wants, thats why i chose the cheap shipping option :)
We should keep this updated until the first person gets their physical copy)
I'm on the east coast so mine will probably take longer. Still haven't received a shipping/tracking email. When you log into the SE store, does your order reflect shipment, too? Mine does not (yet). :( I have early access too, but early access "ends" on midnight June 26. If we don't have the full game code registered by then, idk what happens...

I live in Seattle and the email I received yesterday from SE saying that my CE shipped had a tracking link on it. After clicking this link I see it left from Tennessee at 6pm 6/15 and is currently in Illinois at 11:44am 6/16.
