My batch 4 AMD just arrived (UK)! I only got my tracking number 2 days ago, thought I had plenty time for my additional bits to arrive (RAM, SSD etc.) but FedEx work a lot faster than I gave them credit for (even their own estimate said Monday!). Now I’m sat here with a laptop I can’t power up because my SSD won’t arrive til tomorrow. 🤦‍♂️

Guess I’ll go and sit by the front door and peer through the letterbox a little longer

Framework's shipping is remarkably fast. I think a good window is ordering any additional components between the initial "Preparing your batch" notification and your payment method being charged. You don't want to order too early as many retailers' return windows is within 30 days in case there are problems.
