Had my own questions answered in the process of ordering:
1. Ordered thru the website on Dec 01 [notified via email that order had been received and was "queued"]. Order processed on Dec 08 [notified via email that order was "processed"] Order shipped on Dec 11 [notified via email with tracking number] and received on Dec 12.
2. "Queued" to "processed" was approximately 1 week. Not too bad considering the season and the run Can-Am must be having on some of the cool items for sale on the website.
3. Email notifications thru whole process as described above.
4. Time from order to shipping was 10 days....
[Noted that the CFC/BC CPFO took 2 days to "approve" transfer is also included in this].
