Got my shipped e-mail today too, still says "Electronic shipping information received" on the USPS website but I'm also hoping that means its actually been posted.
The only problem for me is I've moved house in the time I've been waiting, I tried to change my shipping address 1 week after placing my order in early April but the NET.com webiste had already moved my order to processed uneditable stage, I've sent them multiple e-mail to them asking for an address change but with no reply from them.
I really hope they noted my address change .....
Contact your postal service .... they probably have a procedure to submit an address change just as USPS has.

I started making my wicks with cotton and just a hint of hemp fiber twisted in. So, your mileage may vary considerably.
Toasty black cavendish and virginia are the main flavors I'm getting. A mild oriental is in there. The burley seems to be playing chameleon here. It isn't popping out much if at all. The vanilla topping is present in an almost icecream like flavor. It reminds me of vanilla bean or french vanilla. I'm not really sure which one. It isn't coming across overly sweet. It helps add a nice body and bulks up what would otherwise be an overly mild tobacco flavor.
At 7.25 watts the mixture starts to come together and the vanilla slides back. At 7.5 watts the "grain" taste of burley is a little more visible. It doesn't get into that sweet grassy taste though. The toasty taste of black cavendish starts to ride closer to the burley and there is a good amount of analog like flavor. The vanilla eases back and becomes more of a body modifier than a dominant note. At about 7.75 watts the vanilla mixes with the burley, virginia, and oriental to give off a flavor reminiscent of Camel Turkish Royals with a lighter feel and no chocolate undertones. There is also a nice toasted note on the exhale.
I am definitely surprised by this little mixture. My experience with Drew Estates has been completely in the cigar world. So, I expected less tobacco presence and more topping. That really isn't the case here. If you've been turned off by the ACID line in the past, don't let that turn you off to their tobaccos. This is a whole different tin of tobacco.

It's confirmed. Mine is in the USPS's possession and is out for for delivery to me today.
Do you live in the U.S.? If so, you can submit a change of address form to the post office, and all your mail will be forwarded to your new address for a time. If you don't live in the U.S., I would imagine your local postal service has a similar procedure.
Tomorrow is 12 weeks since I placed order #2255 on 4/22/14. No word and my order on the NETCOM website still says "processing."
I am really conflicted on how much longer I wait before reversing the charges.
When Did you order?
Mine was Order date: 04/05/2014
I've got no response to numerous emails and never get an answer by phone
My bank wont let me do charge back they say because its a bank card I don't have the same protection as a CC
I get a little bit of fruit in the first couple of draws. I think the hemp in my wick is muting it though. I've noticed that affect with MFTom's Sangria tobacco juice. It has a nice fruity note on the exhale with silica and cotton. with the hemp it really rolls into the background.
On another note. I just rewicked six heads. I dry burned them all, but forgot to rinse them. Now the choice is spend another hour redoing the wicks or deal with a slight ashy taste. I'll probably just deal with it.
I was conflicted too, but once I started hearing in late June that orders were going out, I decided to wait on reversing the charges. My order # was ~100 before yours, if that's any indication of how much longer it will be.
I ordered 4/7 or 4/8. That would be messed up if they're processing them out of order, unless it's necessitated by the availability of certain extractions needed to fulfill your order. When you log in and check your order status, does it show that a USPS tracking # has been created for your order?
Order date: 04/05/2014
Order#: 2144
Processing has been Processing since I ordered
No tracking no response to 10 emails I started sending emails about 6 weeks ago
I've called the number 20 time never an answer
Even when mine was still in the "Processing" stage, for the last couple of weeks, it showed that a shipping tracking number had been created. It was in the very top text box of the order page, I believe, above the details of the order.
You know what when I look under my orders it shows only processing as it always had
When I click on view or change order it shows Order Status: Ready To Ship
Now I don't know if it always said that or this is a new update
there is no tracking though but maybe the ready to ship is new or a sign or maybe not I don't know
Mann, that's a shame (not trying to be punny here). I missed out on my chance to get 4 bottles of Acadian Gold and only have my FT20% code remaining (never used it, only took advantage of later offered coupons).
Wasn't it something like 50% off? That's like the Steam Summer Sale, minus the trading cards ofc.
or was that only the July 4th sale? Hard to keep track of all of these sales going on and off at the same time, considering I work through the weekend.
We need a "Sales ticker" that shows the NET vendors with their current sales displayed on the left side of the page....or something like that.
BJ we are in the same boat only you're order is a week or so ahead of mine. It looks as if 12 to 15 weeks is the magic number for deliveries.....
