How long should I wait for my CD?

HI, 

I was just wondering how long I should wait for my Cd's? I donated $45 on September 29 and have not received them yet. 

Thanks!

Now all we need is someone to come back in 15 minutes and say "Got it!"

Your question is answered right in the webpage.  You should read up before hand.

Quote from the webpage:

How long does it take to get to me?

The discs are produced in batches on an as-needed-basis, once per week. Typically, batches are mailed out first thing every Monday morning. To make the Monday shipment, your donation must arrive before 5pm EST the previous Sunday, or else you might get bumped to the next batch (we will always try to squeeze in late-comers!) All in all, we found that the average wait time is about 7 to 12 days.quote>

Notice it says average time.  I guess it all counts upon how far away you are, the speed of the post offices, etc.  So yeah, it'll get there.

Thats great and all, but it has been almost 30 days, way over the 7-12 days.

Moved to Simtropolis Related... it just feels better here.

I can't help you out since I haven't donated in quite a long time, but you should get your answer soon.

Hi all, 

Just wanted to say, I received my disks the day after I posted this original message, got them on Oct 27. It took a bit longer than I expected.

I think maybe the expected receive date for the CD's should be moved back to maybe 2-4 weeks, it would prolly stop all the "I haven't gotten my disks threads" and I think the people will be pleased if they get them when they expect to instead of 2-3 weeks after they should have.

Just my opinion

P.S If anyone reads this, I have concerns about the CD's compatibility with my city and my downloads that I already have. I don't want my current cities to esplode or anything like that. 

If there is a place for tips and hints on this topic please lead the way. Thanks!!!!!
