About how long will it take each subscription order to clear? I recently decided, at the behest of a family member, to subscribe as opposed to swinging by the semi-local gaming store and buying them there. As it stands, I am fairly excited about Starfinder and eagerly await the chance to crack open the core rulebook.
Also, is there a Starfinder Society yet? If so, how does one apply to be a registered Starfinder GM?
Thank you in advance for any insight you can give into either of my questions.
1. Check the customer service forum for the month's shipping thread (it's a sticky at the top). This gives dates for the authorization (order spawning) and shipping window, as well as a list of products in the subs.
If you ordered your subscriptions before the authorization on this month's subscriptions (July 27), your order will ship by August 18 at the latest. Your card will have a hold placed on it during the authorization, but will not be charged until your order actually ships. Once the order ships, your free PDFs will be available in the My Downloads section.
If you ordered your subscriptions after July 27, then it will depend on what you chose as your starting option. If you started the sub with Ruins of Azlant 1 and/or the Starfinder Core Rulebook, it would have given you an option to ship them as soon as possible or to put them in your sidecart. If you said as soon as possible, they will likely get shipped in the next couple of weeks, although I would not hold your breath on getting them before street date. If you said sidecart, they will be shipped together with next month's subscriptions. Check the customer service forums for the September thread in a few weeks to see when that might be. If you started the sub with Ruins of Azlant 2 or Alien Archive, they will be shipped during the normal shipping window for their release month.
2. There is a Starfinder Society. See here for details. To GM, register an event online, pick up a SFS scenario, run it, then report it online. You need to register for a PFS ID if you don't already have one (it's free). See also the organized play FAQ and SFS landing page.
Hello King,
Everything Skizzerz said is correct. Because of the much larger number of releases this month the August shipping window is longer than they usually are.
I don't see any issues with your order. It is just waiting for its turn in the shipping queue.
Hello King,
Each month we have a shipping window of 2 weeks. We expect to have all of the subscription orders shipped in that window. This month that window was 3 weeks long instead. We began shipping on July 31 and expect to have all the subscriptions shipped by August 18. So your order can ship anytime between now and August 18.
