I subscribed about two months ago after seeing this on /r/sysadmin. I got my first issue, but I still haven't got my Yubikey :(

I have a feeling that they might be waiting on a huge order of the branded Yubikeys to arrive.

I just subscribed because of this!

And yeah probably. Per my post-subscription notice:

6-8 weeks

Reading the fine print on their site it says offer only valid in the U.S. and would be delivered with in 4 weeks. Are you a U.S. resident or could that be an issue? Hope you get it

There's an international form and the deal still applies! It's just $10 instead of 5

(scratch that, they make it $20 CAD after everything...)

"You will receive your exclusive YubiKey within 4 weeks after being charged. Offer valid in U.S. only." :(

That’s odd. My invoice shows that I get one here in Canada and says 6-8 weeks both on the confirmation screen and the email copy.

I’ve been reading Wired articles for years for free so I don’t mind signing up for a year regardless.

I guess I’ll find out and can report back for anybody who wants to know for sure haha.

Support says "The yubikey is also sent outside the US. Yours was ordered September 19 and should take 6-8 weeks to arrive", so I guess the notice on the page isn't correct. Yay!

International shipping bumps this up to 40 USD, which is a ridiculous shipping fee for a letter.
