Please bear in mind that any 'ETA' from FT is a pure guess on their part. I've had ETAs that keep increasing up to the point where they become 'discontinued' after a couple of months. Then you recieve the email asking if you want a refund (hell, yes) or to pick something else (er, no - if i wanted something else i would have ordered it).
I like to imagine that the FT team are frantically trying to source my items until they eventually just
throw their hands in the air and give up.
With over 8 years of using FT i've learnt to take all the estimates and ship dates with a pinch of
salt.
Refunds for items they can't source are pretty quick.
