i think the baseline order was #5000, just for a frame of reference. that being said, there's been conflicting reports on the order of shipping. one post indicates product type (e.g. otaku browns getting shipped first), while one post indicates that they're going in order of shipping number. one thing's for sure though, they ARE shipping them and a lucky few in the LA area have already received theirs, so just relax. you'll get your board soon enough, they are very busy trying to get them to you after all.
