Don't know if it helps the discussion or not -
I'm in the USA.  Ordered a chip a month ago.  Shortly after, I received notice that the order was being shipped.  +13 days after I placed the order, I had the chip in my hands.  +1 hour later, the chip was in my pedalboard.  Not too long after I had a working program uploaded to the unit.
Of course shipping times may vary so don't expect the same results.
