I ordered mine from them a week or so before you did, but I figured
they couldn't start mailing until after May 1st. I have not received
the CD's I ordered yet, but I wasn't planning on saying anything
until sometime next week. I don't know if they have charged my
credit-card yet.

While this set of CD's has been rather late, I would say that I
haven't had any problems with the Calgary store in the past.

I also have a "OpenBSD subscription" with BSDmall, and I received
my CD from them about 10-12 days ago. So, I was able to do the
install I wanted to do, and the other CD's are just for the
inevitable times when someone will "borrow" a CD from me and
then forget to return it.
