Copy/paste from November's thread + an addition:
This schedule and list of products is very tentative at the moment due to how unpredictable shipping currently is (and the holidays aren't likely to impact that in a positive way). Please note that the shipping window dates fall on the same week as Thanksgiving (US), which may also increase shipping times due to Paizo being closed on Thursday, November 25th and Friday, November 26th.

Another (tiny) update for December:
•Authorization (Order Spawning) Date: Thursday, November 18th Wednesday, November 24th - This is the Wednesday before US Thanksgiving, it's possible this date could change, but I'll let you all know as soon as I can if it does!
Moved:
• Starfinder Galactic Magic - January 2022
I'm not expecting any other product changes for December, but never say never, so I'll continue to update if anything changes between now and then!

Okay, hopefully final update on dates!
•Authorization (Order Spawning) Date: Monday, November 29th
There's a very quick turnaround from order generation to shipping due to Thanksgiving (US), but we'll be sending out an email ASAP to those of you subscribed to the above subscription lines. Please ensure that your default address and payment options are correct before order generation, if possible!
Obviously, we'll do our best to ensure that things are fixed before shipping, but checking the above will cut down on potential problems.

Hopefully minimal hitches and that hard-working Paizo staff get some real time off for the holidays. Excited for these books, too!

Damn, Galactic Magic was the book I was most excited about.
All good though, these things happen!

Me too, but it will be a pleasant way to start the year instead.

Hm. So December's subs are going to be (mostly) shipped (and billed) in December? Good! :-)
Sorry if I missed the announcement elsewhere, but did the price increase on the "Absolam, City of Lost Omens book?" It looks like the MSRP price is $54.99. I see the Guns & Gear book had a $49.99 MSRP, the same as the other bigger books. I'm guessing the price increased (though I don't see a similar increase for "Lost Omens: Monsters of Myth."
I'm pretty sure this book is the largest one they've put out since the CRB. Pricing seems pretty rational to me.

Absolom book is 40 pages bigger. $5 more for a book thats ~15% bigger seems reasonable

I'm not privy to pricing discussions or the like, BUT Absalom is a little less than twice the size of Guns & Gears, page count-wise (looking at both PDFs), if that helps!

Thank you for this information, Raychael. Can you please direct me to the person that can answer such a question or at least pass it along?
Perhaps I gave the impression I was complaining about the price increase. I wasn't. Prices are going up on everything everywhere, so it stands to reason they would on these books, too. I'm simply seeking if the increase in price is directly related to the start of future increases, or whether it's a one-off price bump for this book (presumably for a size increase). I have no problem with a price increase, regardless of the reason. But the reason itself MIGHT have an impact how I obtain my Pathfinder 2e books going forward. I'll explain..
When Absalom was first announced way back when, it was available for pre-order through multiple retailers with an MSRP showing $49.99. It remains at that MSRP level still for many retailers. If the MSRP price has increased because the size of the book increased, great, I have zero issue with that, and I can continue on with my Paizo subscriptions as normal. If the reason for the increase is that it's the beginning of a price increase for Paizo books going forward, then I might have to reconsider my subscriptions and pick them up at another retailer. That's because the price for all future Pathfinder 2e books currently available for pre-order on many sites still tops off with a $49.99 MSRP. So at the moment, if the increase in books via Paizo is permanent, it looks like the discrepancy between what I pay here and the amount I could save thanks to certain retailer discounts elsewhere increases even more.
At the moment, Paizo prices always put me behind about $5 per book vs certain retailers, despite my 15% discount here. That doesn't even account for shipping & handling, which is often free elsewhere with bulk purchases. To this date I've been okay with that. And given the recent company promises to do better by its staff and creators, I'm hopeful to continue, so that more folks see more of that money. But if all future Paizo books see a $5 increase on this site, but other retailers are still working off a lower MSRP when giving discounts, that only widens the gap of what I'm paying per book by keeping my subscriptions here. I'll at least have to consider whether it makes more sense for me to start buying my Paizo books elsewhere.

I was all excited because I thought my subs had shipped because I got a shipping notification from Paizo. But it turned out to be the Gods and Magic puzzle I'd ordered. Now I'm even more excited!
It's going to be a great Thanksgiving weekend!!

It's doubled in size since the book was first announced. That's part of why it's so much later than it was planned. This book is massive.
I have both The Slumbering Tsar and the Legendary Planets AP. Those books are massive! Pathfinder's largest book is merely large in comparison.
But yes, your point stands, it's going to be big by Paizo standards!

402 pages to be exact, so about 100 pages more than Mwangi Expanse which was $49.99. 100 pages for $5 is pretty good.
No doubt. I've read up on it throughout the day and it is my understanding that a very large portion of the book is lore, which makes it even better. I feel like Paizo does a great job handling their lore, and I really enjoy reading through these types of books.

In fact, there are only a few pages that are not lore: according to Aaron Shanks, the only rule content is the Azarketi ancestry, a few Azarketi weapons and NPCs and some new drugs,

Hey everyone! Update regarding subscriptions for this month (we'll also get an email together to send out to everyone ASAP, since not everyone reads these threads)! Unfortunately, we have some products still stuck in ports (likely due to a combination of continuing shipping issues, holidays, and COVID), so we're going to be pushing the release date out by a week, and, subsequently, the order generation and fulfillment dates.
Apologies for the delay! We were hoping we'd get the rest of our products this week, but since that doesn't look to be the case, moving it out looks to be the best option.
New dates are currently as follows:
•Authorization (Order Spawning) Date: Friday, December 3rd
•Begin Shipping Estimate: Monday, December 6th
•End Shipping Estimate: Friday, December 17th
•Street Date for Paizo Products: Wednesday, December 22nd
Dates are still a little tentative and might change by a day or two, depending on business needs, but if you have any questions, please let me know!
Just curious whether y'all received the rest of your products or not, or perhaps the situation is still pending?
I've got subscriptions here for my books, but once I know the Spell Cards and Maps are confirmed I can lump some pre-orders together elsewhere.
So probably not getting for Christmas?

Depends on what products you're waiting on. Most of them seem on time and likely to deliver around Christmas.
Is there an updated list as to what is and what is not in the warehouse?

I'm hoping to have a more permanent answer for everyone sometime today, once the powers-that-be make decisions based on what we've received and what we haven't! We're just waiting on the aforementioned information so that we have a firm update that we can also email to subscribers.
So probably not getting for Christmas?
The dates above are still in line with domestic shipping cut-off dates for Christmas (international is always a weird one at the best of times), which we're definitely going to be trying for!
Does that include the extra 3-5 days that packages are expected to take now for the holidays?
Happy the Lost Omens volumes are on track! Really nervous about the Strength of Thousands book though. That one being delayed a month would be a pretty gnarly tangle for me at least. Crossing fingers!

Currently, we're working within USPS's domestic holiday cut-off dates located here and the current plan is to get subscriptions shipped by the cut-off dates!
We sent an email out to all subscribers earlier, but I'm also going to post it here for information:
"Due to ongoing port delays, the fulfillment window and product mix for the December releases is in flux, but we expect to generate subscription orders early next week and begin shipping subs out soon after that.
The products guaranteed for December release are Lost Omens: City of Absalom and Lost Omens: Monsters of Myth. We are hoping Pathfinder Adventure Path #174: Shadows of the Ancients, Pathfinder Spell Cards: Secrets of Magic, Starfinder Adventure Path #43: Icebound, Starfinder Spell Cards, and Starfinder Flip-Tiles: Space Station Corridors Expansion will be included as well, but they may need to wait until January 2022."
Order generation date is set for Monday, December 6th right now and we'll continue to update as things progress and/or change!
Is today the day?

Working on getting the auth started right now!
As a note, no luck getting more products in, so the only releases for December are Lost Omens: City of Absalom and Lost Omens: Monsters of Myth. APs, maps, and accessories are still stuck in a cargo container, unfortunately!
As of right now, we'll be moving the rest of the products over to January. Apologies for the inconvenience! We're just as frustrated by this as anyone else!

As much as I'd like to see everything this month...this makes the hit to my wallet a little easier to take in the ramp up to the holidays ;)
Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
Got mine, too. And now the watch begins.
Looking forward to reading about the mosquito witch!

Woo Hoo, got my Auth e-mail! Too bad about the AP's but my wallet feels better. I think we've got some container gremlins we need to eradicate. LOL

Word is that shipping has started! Here we go again.
Thanks CS!
Hyped!
Nothing yet but for the past year I have tended to be towards the end of the cycle.
Shipping notice! Looks like I’m near the front of the queue this month. Will be nice to have something to read on the plane home this afternoon :)
My watch continues.
