Got a email response from the owner:

Factory screwed them again, so deliveries aren't coming until next year.

At least their service is excellent. And also I got replies too. They told me, they will ship on Monday. That's why they sent me a pre shipping label. I hope you get yours too. We will wait until next week. Lol.

I just got an email from ModChipCentral and they canceled my pre-order as they are not able to ship the SKY3DS+ from within the US like they wanted. :(

Hello,

Unfortunately we have some bad news.
For reasons beyond our control we are not able to ship the Sky3DS from
within the US.
We have been thinking of other solutions within the last 24 hours but we
think the best idea is just to cancel orders and give customers an
opportunity to order elsewhere.

The issue is related to customs and the continued effort in clamping
down on flash cards being a 'grey area' in the US.

We have an opportunity to ship items directly from China/HK. But that
would make us no different from the 20 other resellers on the sky3ds
website that are listed under the 'USA' section but actually ship from
there. DHL rates from there cost $30 or so, and airmail is about the
same as the rates we have quoted but its just too messy and don't want
to get a 3rd party involved.

We apologize for the massive inconvenienced caused. If the Sky3ds team
actually shipped when they said it was ready (first week of December) we
wouldn't have had this issue.


We have not charged your credit card for the transaction, so there is
no action needed on your card. Credit card information has been wiped.

There are a very small amount of transactions which where changed over
from previous orders like faulty sky3ds returns etc - if your order was
one of these pleas email us back so we can refund you any monies owned.


Once again we are sorry for the inconvenience caused but it is totally
out of our control."

So I'm looking for another site. But I may just wait until a site has them in stock and pay then.

They said that they can't "ship from within the US" so I just don't know whether or not it'd include mine as mine is being shipped from Canada.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Okay, so the email that user @Tmu got must apply to US re-sellers as stated:

This email is from modchipsdirect (A US reseller). I ordered from modchipcentral (A Canadian reseller) so I suppose that this email doesn't apply to me, thankfully. I hope mine comes tomorrow as promised.

This was my take on the matter.

Has anyone received a sky3ds+ card from 3dscarduk.com? I ordered on the 18/12 and when I asked them when they would get stock they said:
"Dear Customer
I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.
Sky3ds+ will be instock in this week,i will send your order after i got first stock.
I will send a free r4i3ds card as gift,if you ordered before sky3ds+ available.
Best Regards"
English doesn't seem to be their first language, so are they actually shipping from the UK? They are really confusing me, they said i would be getting it before new years in an earlier email, now its changed until after new years.

Had modchipdirect canceled this week after ordering two weeks ago, then went to peachds but they cancelled a day later, yesterday.

Ordered modchipcentral this morning, with an hour, had a tracking number. Because of holiday shipping closures, won't have till Monday but still, was surprised was shipped same day ordered.

I ordered mine almost 3 weeks ago but still no dice. Mine was never shipped out, but I guess I get mine next week..

"Yours won’t ship until the second batch arrives.

Team Sky shipped us the packaging and usb cables.

The Sky cards will be shipped out to us any day now

And we will receive them next week.

As soon as we do your order will ship same day"
