My order went in about 6/25, and it was shipped on about 8/3. I want to add that the plate is really very nice, and that they did a great job in the overall design.
On thing about the 1DX that is new is that the front edge of the base is slightly curved along the base in the width direction. That means that there is no way to make a plate that could cup both the front and the back of the camera edges and also slide out and be attached with a different gap on the left side to accommodate various connected cables. The slide out design has been used in a lot of other Really Right Stuff Canon L plates, but would not work in this case. The two part plate they came up with is very well engineered, it cups the camera base perfectly, and it has zero slop at the joint when secured in either the close position or the extended position. An added bonus is the bottom only plate option, which is very useful for video.
I guess I am just saying the wait is worth it, and I hope yours comes soon.
