The SA called yesterday and said 'I see you've paid your Invoice. Instead of waiting for those Port Delays, we have an identical White/Black MYP sitting here right now. Do you want that one?' I said 'Sure!'
That's 2 days before my most recent EDD window.
They changed the VIN on my Invoice and Rego, and I picked it up 9:30am this morning. He spent a good amount of time (about 30min) going through phone setup, and settings incl turning on Dashcam and Sentry. Not rushed at all, unlike some SCs we hear about in the US.
So as much as we'd all like to think there should be queue in sequence of ordering, it's unfortunately not. When my EDD jumped 1-2 months, it might've been someone else's cancelled order. After today it sounded like 'you've paid, and other people haven't, so we'll give you this one'. But maybe I'm reading that wrong...
