I placed my order around 11pm Eastern US time on Monday. Mine was listed as
processing and just suddenly went to "Shipped" and "Delivered" in one day.
It is interesting because my understanding is that all LF orders are processed
in Denmark but my shippment came from Enfield. I am wondering if shippments are
batched together in Denmark and shipped in bulk to Enfield in order to save on
shipping and then split out there. Of course I could be mistaken. I do know
for a fact that all missing parts get sent from Denmark so maybe I got confused
with that and orders do get processed in Enfield, but if that is the case my
missing parts would be there. So I guess I just don't know.

This time of year I usually get orders 1-2 days after I place them. (Slow time
of year and I live very close to Enfield). I would expect LF orders to take a
bit longer though especially for the first few months while they get the kinks
worked out.
While I was disappointed in the missing parts (mostly because the set only had
12 parts in it to begin with) I am willing to give LEGO a 'mulligan' or two
while things get ironed out.
Prices are a lot more than PAB but the part selection is also much better, I
also wish they hadn't called it the "Train Pallet" as very few of the parts are
actually train specific. Of course I am building all train stuff so far but LF
definitely isn't limited to just the train parts.
