Well, it’s Wednesday October 2 here is the US and Amazon UK have yet to ship the “Feel” single five days after release; I don’t think this has ever happened before. From the comments above, it appears as if:
1. No one else who has ordered from Amazon UK has had their copies despatched either.
2. Juno UK is a good alternative.
3. The Official Store was actually a great option this time around, but has now sold out.

I ordered from US Amazon, to save on shipping costs. There was no declared delivery date at first, but they've been saying Oct. 25 for a while now. Counting on them knowing what they're doing and following through.

My Amazon order is also delayed until 19th Oct - I've now ordered from HMV online as their local high street shop didn't have any.

Yeah, the UK store has them in stock, but the US store is showing sold out. This momentarily shocked me when I decided to forego Amazon and order direct from the official site. Fortunately I needed it sent to a UK address.

Sold out @USStore, as are some of the other singles

I hate that it automatically links you to the US/Canada/EU store just because of your IP location. I almost always order from the UK store even though I am in Canada. I have had to set up my own link to it but occasionally have goofed and ended up ordering from North America unintentionally.

I think a pop-up when you click a link asking which store you WANT to order from might be more appropriate.

I could cancel but I would probably lose the free postage as it was part of a three-pronged order over £35. I don't mind waiting...sort of

Pleasantly surprised to see my order from the UK shop, placed yesterday, was shipped today!

For those waiting on Amazon, to be honest, I waited for the first single and eventually I gave up. You'll always be able to find a copy, but the longer you wait the higher the price will go.

I've just cancelled Feel and the expanded Nonetheless cd from Amazon and reordered at HMV. Same price and no extra postage even though they're sending them separately.

Mini rant: I live in the US but my in laws are in the UK. They're getting on in age so my wife is visiting a couple times a year. For all the Nonetheless singles I've tried ordering from Amazon US but got the same month long delay email. I would cancel and order from Amazon UK and just have my wife bring them home next time she visited. This time I just straight ordered from A-UK and now I get the same delay. So frustrating.

I'm leery ordering from the official site because people complain they take so long but it looks like things are being shipped quickly for this single. Anywhere else reliable I can order from? My wife will be there early Nov so I need it sooner rather than later.

Rough Trade?
I live in New York and have ordered the latest releases through the official store and it has been very fast - so I would go with them.
I also live in New York and have never had a problem with the official store… until recently when my Royal Opera House Dreamworld Fan was lost. 😞 (anyone have an extra?)

The failure of our Dutch postal service strikes again. The single is in limbo for a few days now and they are going to start an investigation. Jay!
So I ordered the single at my local record store.

Shipped from OS Sept 24th

Waiting patiently for delivery here in Canada, but imagine it'll be any day now. That's pretty normal.

When Annually comes out I usually notice a few comments from USA of delivery ahead of mine.
