I'm back from a couple of days out so I'm currently chasing outstanding stock that is still holding up some orders, which should be the only remaining major impediment beyond pure shipping capacity.

Could you make an estimate (percentage) on how many orders have been shipped & how long it might take to ship (most) of the remaining orders? Like are we talking about 1 or 2 weeks left or even more.

This might avoid some additional customer requests for the next days.
 
My order statuses, both presumably considered larger orders:
  • Order #1, made 1 December, after site was back up but probably before sale prices were fixed as I only ordered Crunchyroll titles using the sale 10% coupon - not yet shipped
  • Order #2, made 2 December, shipped 16 January
 
Ya'll srsly still waiting? Iuno why ya'll ain't cancelled at this point like, insteada the endless hope 'n pray order... err, ordering lottery. Act like a sucka and yer gon get treated like a suka, foo'.

A sense of inner peace overcame meeee, the moment my order was cancelled. 'Twas refreshing. No more waiting for anime that, deep down, none of us truly even want. No more posts despairing over day 1/2 orders. Only calm stillness remained~ 🧘‍♂️

Let it go, brothers. Anime Limited have made anime lose £ value, long before they stopped valuing you as customers. Just buy what you ordered elsewhere. LET IT GOOOOO

The AL Xmas stuff is always subject to delay and disaster.
I expected some of that, but am slowly getting items. At best there would only be a pound or two of interest earned/lost (1%?)
I’ll come back for hugs in February if the last of mine hasn’t made it by then.
 
My second order of two random blu-rays, and a third order of BOGOF Gundam blu-rays finally arrived!
With Diebuster finally arriving last week or whenever it was, that's my Anime Limited Order Backlog finally all arrived.
Now to add them all to my Anime Watching Backlog for the next decade or so.

Whilst I do not predate Google on the internet, Airony has existed a wee bit prior to 2021; since the happier yet still incompetent beginnings of AL xmas feckery, in fact. And, Allah willing, I'll be here, 'till the bitter end~

'Tis interesting you mentioned banking interest loss/gain, for Howo the Wisesolf instructioned me on losses and gains. I fear you are looking at it from a skewered perspective: when AL were far more delay happy with their early birdies, my friend half-jokingly suggested that the interest AL gained from 3-12month+ setbacks must be substantial. And given the current 3-5000+ order backlog, inc huge £100-1000+ orders, I daresay 'tis not an entirely inaccurate notion: the longer this drags out with 'complex' orders left 'till last, the more it benefits the company over the consumer. They could've paid extra for a temp additional shipping partner and/or staff to clear the backlog at the start of the year. That was a decision. And that's why I cancelled.

Ya'll may be willing to bank with Anime Limited, where they gain all the interest collectively, but NO: that is a red-line in my sandpit. And I am disappointed others on here cannot see the bigger picture. For if you don't respect yourselves, I - as man - cannot either. Your repeated posts about no movement on day 1/3/7 orders bounce off me like ping pong balls, I'm sorry to say.

...but there is still hope, for you can yet cancel. February!? The time to act is now, before more interest is accrued on your monies!
