Mine went through too, but with all the server issues it looks like I have TWO authorizations and order numbers on the site.

Yikes.

Hope I was one of the first 20,000...

Had two orders go through, called Lego cut service, was on hold for 47 minutes before getting a very friendly British lady on the phone who was able to cancel one of the orders.

Pondering whether I should have just let it go through...

Checked my order status, already in warehouse preparing to ship, nice!

I had heard that the VIP card is limited to this initial wave? who knows...it could be by the end of 2017, but how many times will it get back in stock for someone to do so?

I'm just glad to hear my fellow AFOLs in the thread had success too! congrats to everyone that tried and succeeded! :clap:

Yeah, they were listing them as backordered when I placed my order. I believe they said they anticipated them to ship by Oct 15. So that's not awful.

From facebook, I saw someone ask the question about the VIP card:
LEGO Hi Paul! Great question :) The Limited Edition VIP Star Wars Card will continue to be distributed to all LEGO VIP Members who purchase the Millennium Falcon throughout 2017.
so there you have it folks, no worries if you didn't hit the initial drop, hopefully more chances will still arise before 2017 ends. :D
