(of course, if it does get here and the currently deferred 7 times shipment doesn’t, I will be pointing out to FedEx that the issue was clearly never that they couldn’t figure out how to deliver here.
@OldCatLady FedEx lies. It is currently in Wamsutter, WY instead of delivery yesterday. No delivery date now, but maybe tomorrow? More likely Thursday.
@tinamarie1974 When during the meh-rathron did you get yours? Since you were the first one to post yours had shipped, good things might happen. When I got my x box in the last IRK-bought it during the first IRK offered that night and was the first one notified that mine had shipped (at least first one to post mine had been shipped). Led me to believe that the first one they sent out had the best stuff in it. Coincidence maybe but worth mentioning.
@RiotDemon@tinamarie1974 Know I have asked this question before, but at least in TM case and mine, the first one ordered seemed to be the first ones shipping. As to what is in them, it would make sense to get the good stuff sent out and of the way by sending it out first. In my case, the xbox was wrapped with a ton of bubble wrap to protect it and it made sense to do that and get it out first.
I’m sure now mine will be singled out and probably get a container of doggie poo to prove your point, but its interesting to point out the coincidences.
@brainmist@RiotDemon@sammydog01 same here RE: they must hate me…and I scored mine in the morning. Have never scored a phenomenal item but have had plenty of good IRKs, so it will be what it will be. Half the fun is losing sleep and the rush of actually having the order go thru. Love the fun community here too.
@brainmist@RiotDemon@sammydog01@speediedelivery Don’t feel bad. I got my IRK in the 3rd one at around 6:20 AM EST (up so early not for IRKs but to try to sign up for a Covid vaccine shot which I didn’t get-the IRK that sort of fell into my lap which made it even a worse start to the day).
Am sure all the good stuff has already been shipped out.
-VMPs never got stuff shipped before anyone else. At one time I think they got priority customer service response but that probably went away when it was grandfathered
-There is no reason to believe they ship the good stuff first. Just because something happened once doesn’t mean it happens every time.
Mine is also still processing. I love reading the reveal thread, but prefer not to do so until I receive mine. I do not want any preconceived notions in my head of what I might get or what I want from what others receive. Prefer to be shocked/thrilled/disappointed all on my own and THEN read what others got.
One shipped Monday and due to arrive tomorrow (“make-up” IRK for the shortage of Meh pop-socket knock-offs). The other still stuck in the processing vortex… It’s two…two…two IRKs in one!
I’m curious though… The shipping dimensions are 6×4×1. I don’t know if I’ve ever received an irk/fuku/boc with dimensions so small before.
Are these dimensions not accurate?
I guess we will find out today! Maybe it will be all flat things.
Will it deliver before the box @brainmist is having delivered?!?!.!.
Mine will be here Monday!
FedEx says Sunday.
Don’t count on it
/8ball Are they full of lies???
(of course, if it does get here and the currently deferred 7 times shipment doesn’t, I will be pointing out to FedEx that the issue was clearly never that they couldn’t figure out how to deliver here.
And every past IRK/ Fuko made it just fine.)
Notified yesterday, shipped today, delivery claimed for Monday.

@OldCatLady FedEx is just playing with me now. SOUTH Salt Lake? It’s headed in the wrong direction. Nothing has ever gone through South Salt Lake.
It’s heeeere! FedEx still claims 6x4x1 in. and 1lb. But my wife says it’s about 3x4 feet, and too heavy for her to move!
I’m still at work, and she’s headed out to get her hair done, and she told me: “Don’t you dare open it until I get home!”
My drone shipped before my IRK.
Not sure if it’s good or meh.

@Felton10 oh I hope you are right! Fingers crossed anyway. I grabbed mine during the first offering just after 11pm CST
@Felton10 people have guessed about this but they are completely random.

@Felton10 @tinamarie1974 I got my shipping confirmation way before this thread and I didn’t get an IRK until the afternoon.
@Felton10 @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 I think they ship to their favorites first.
@brainmist @RiotDemon Mine hasn’t shipped yet. DO THEY HATE ME?
@brainmist @RiotDemon @sammydog01 same here RE: they must hate me…and I scored mine in the morning.

@cbilyak @RiotDemon @sammydog01 That is a hell of a rush.
@Felton10 @RiotDemon hum…
@brainmist @RiotDemon @sammydog01 who could ever hate you!!!
@brainmist @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 I don’t think I am one of their favorites-at least not Thumperchick.
@brainmist @cbilyak @RiotDemon @sammydog01 Losing sleep is the thing I like most followed by screwing up the next day if I don’t get an IRK that night.
@brainmist @RiotDemon @sammydog01 I am in the doghouse with Sammydog. “Processing” I was in the second offering in the middle of the night eastern time.
@brainmist @Felton10 @RiotDemon but maybe Walter is? He seems to be quite charming!
@brainmist @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 He can be unless you do something that displeases him and he sinks his beak into you.
@brainmist @Felton10 @RiotDemon
/giphy ouch!
@Felton10 @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 Theoretically, unless that perk has gone away too, VMP is supposed to ship before everyone else.
@Kidsandliz @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 I never knew that. Is that true-RiotDemon-source of all knowledge re IRKs.
@brainmist @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @speediedelivery Don’t feel bad. I got my IRK in the 3rd one at around 6:20 AM EST (up so early not for IRKs but to try to sign up for a Covid vaccine shot which I didn’t get-the IRK that sort of fell into my lap which made it even a worse start to the day).

Wait! What?!
/giphy mind blown
@brainmist @Felton10 @RiotDemon @speediedelivery @ybmuG
/giphy the more you know
@brainmist @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @speediedelivery @ybmuG I know nothing-nothing.
I’m still processing. Unsure if I’m a favorite or hated
@brainmist @Felton10 @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974
My guy says that the “favorites” are the ones who are able to score them in the first place! (he’s always the nay-sayer)
@brainmist @Felton10 @Lynnerizer @RiotDemon I don’t always catch one.
@brainmist @Lynnerizer @RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 Well you are still alive so the doll didn’t come in from the garage and do you in last night.
@djslack IRKs always leave me wondering the same thing…
@brainmist @Felton10 @Lynnerizer @RiotDemon nope, and I slept quite soundly! Although I did have a rather odd dream about trying to order a salad at a restaurant…
@djslack
Me too. Last time we got delayed Irks I got a creepy doll and you got an empty PS5 box. So it could go either way.
@sammydog01 the optimist in me is gonna go with favorites on both of us
@djslack @sammydog01 Changed to shipped! 6x4x1 1 pound due Thursday
Date changed to Wednesday delivery but no change in size or weight. Tracking information shows it is likely.
@sammydog01 @speediedelivery mine shipped today, will be delivered tomorrow and waiting for me when I get back to town from work tomorrow evening!
@djslack @speediedelivery Friday delivery for me! If FedEx isn’t lying. They tend to be overly optimistic.

I think my IRK is out for delivery!

@LaserEyes Placeholder size and weight. It will be bigger. Maybe not better though.
