FA stuff I ordered on the 1st still hasn’t shipped. I get having tons of orders, but this is kinda ridiculous. Might give it another day then try to cancel it.

Damn dude, they ain’t Amazon, just chill and it will show up

Haven't gotten a shipping confirmation from my FA order either. I know some West coasters have gotten theirs and I waited a day so I'm assuming there's a long line.
I smoked pot out of an apple with Riley Hawk's dad.
Honestly, I miss Tracer.
it'd be sweet if you emailed FA to complain and they replied with a video of them burning your order

They must really be hurting to lose that much profit on a sale of non overstock items.
