The American counterpart, Best Buy, shipped them today too. Apparently it'll be here Monday. I don't remember paying for overnight shipping or actually anything for shipping so that is a nice surprise.
*Rumour ONLY* - Someone had posted on the official D3 forums and the Futureshop Forum that a FS rep mentioned that FS had oversold their stock and there would be a lot of CE orders not filled.

I didn't write this a user on the diablo 3 official forums did but i found it interesting.
Hey Guys, just thought I would share a little information I obtained from a FutureShop rep.
In Canada, FutureShop had their pre-orders opened for the longest time, long after (competitor), (competitor)(or (competitor), in Canada) said that the item is unavalable.
FutureShop oversubscribed their pre-orders for the limited edition, so most people who pre-ordered the LCE are going to have their order canceled on the 14th.
On the 14th, FutureShop will start billing the players in a "Random Order".
The bottom line is, as I was told by the CSR,
"Whoever's credit card clears first, will have their order shipped out first, it's not in any way related to the position you are in the pre-order line"
Hmm, freaky. I preordered mine in-store at a Future Shop location near my place. Here's hoping I don't get screwed over... Well, going at least a few hours early to the midnight release so hopefully should be all good!!
