Very likely not. Batch 5 hasn’t even got all payments charged according to the forum. So if they keep up the pace it probably takes ~2weeks until they take payment and ship it. They probably send out the prep mails a bit earlier to have enough time to handle change requests.
But, still you should make sure your card is able to be charged within 3 days. Everything else could just lead to some delays and hustles.
Does anyone know if they will actually charge my card in the specified 3 days? The said that it will still take 1 to 3 weeks for it to ship.
