So.. I got a little antsy and decided to email support to see if I could them to expedite mine, originally paid the $15 but been regretting not having paid 5 more to get it sooner. Below was the response, and what was funny to me was not what was said but how it was said.

Is it me or did it sound like that response was generated from some weird algorithm. A freaking robot responded to my email.
