Probably not very long as mine was dispatched from Eindhoven to the UK
I've just got my 'Your order has been processed' message overnight - 17 hours ago. I'm batch xx67xx, March 12th order date in the UK. I'm a little concerned that my account hasn't been charged yet though! Did anyone else have a delay between the processed email and charging happening?

Phew! Thanks Karnath - you've put my mind at ease. Fingers crossed for Friday!
It's listed as in Stock on Amazon right now. Prime shipping available too.
I can see it on Amazon uk.. but no prime and for £899 (UK pre-orders are £499):
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Oculus-Rif...F8&qid=1467132432&sr=8-1&keywords=oculus+rift
There in stock on Amazon.com. At current exchange rate £580 including postage and import duty.
What I want to know is how come you can buy In store in US. But they haven't even finished pre orders in the rest of the world.
Ordered May 23rd. Haven't even got an estimated shipping date yet. Sent them an email last week asking for an estimated delivery date,they haven't even replied yet.

What I do is have a look through the sub reddit for Oculus:
https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/4cpj6g/all_regions_shipping_megathread/
Loads of people report their shipping emails and batch numbers there. Your batch number is the one which comes after the 000s in the middle of the order number. You might have a 3 digit batch number. They've been moving really quickly recently. Mine is batch 67 (ordered March 12th) but only last week they were processing in the 30s. I wouldn't be surprised if you got yours in the next few weeks - fingers crossed!

Still doesn't explain why pre orders aren't being serviced before putting on shelves in the U.S.

It also depends a lot on where you are - local stock availability is determining the shipping dates, not just the order date (US mainland, UK/Europe and SE Asia distributions seem likely based on the Reddit posts)
I ordered on 28th March and have had my CV1 almost a week. But I'm in Australia; Oculus seem to have sent stock here to fulfil almost all preorders down under. My home city got almost an entire pallet.
So while I'm one one of the last preorders, I've been shipped way ahead of time (my delivery date was late July-early August!)
Hang in there - you'll love it.
Nope, need something stronger for the painalso got my 'soon' email on Jun 11th, nothing since then.
What do you think so far Karnath?
I had my 'shipping soon' on 11th June. Expected delivery date 20th June to 30th June.
Should I be worried that I haven't heard a thing and its the 30th June?
Nope, mine was 11th June also, but got the processing email yesterday am, the shipping email pm, and delivering this Friday. So hang on in there - any day now!

Thats a full month earlier than originally estimated.

Mine will be here tomorrow As well a full month sooner than originally stated. Screwed up the budget but worth it.
