We know you're anxious to receive your Oculus Rift and apologize for not updating your order status sooner. We've been working through an unexpected component shortage, and unfortunately, that issue has impacted the original shipping estimates for some early customers.

We're working hard to get up-to-date ship windows, and you should expect to see your order status updated on oculus.com by Tuesday, April 12. Although many Rifts will be arriving on schedule and in line with original estimates, we'll be covering shipping and handling costs for all orders placed through today.

We're shipping rifts everyday. Don't hesitate to reach out to the Oculus support team if you have additional questions.

So people that will receive it in July won't have to pay the shipment, but the loyal fans who pre-ordered immediately will have to?

I'd be happy to save $138 Usd. But I'm not going to believe anything until well after the us is done with their april fools day BS and I've received something from oculus rather than a mb.

Looks like Oculus have been working their backsides off to sort this out, hence the silence, but just haven't been able to. Not ideal but I'd prefer to wait for a working rift than take the chance on something not quite right.
