Here’s my fear, though—based off the experience of people who have done this, how good are my chances that Amazon UK will let me shift over to a U.S. address before it goes into dispatch processing? I’m extremely anxious about the thought of the order actually going out to a nonsense address on the other side of the world before I can revise it or, worst case scenario, cancel it.

Easy.
Use a prepaid card with no enough funds for that order and if it started the dispatch process, Amazon will send you an email saying the payment method isn't working and will give you 6 days to correct it.

To each their own. I think 'Happy birthday, here's a gift for existing,' is more meaningful than, 'Happy Jesus' birthday, here's a gift to celebrate a dude who got crucified 2000 years ago.'

Your authorized biography is coming out in an exclusive Steelbook in early November...

That biography is inaccurate. I never would've patched things up with the Whos.

Yeah, someone offered that suggestion to me in another thread (but with a debit card with minimal funds, rather than a prepaid one), so I went with that. I should be locked and loaded and ready to rock now!

An honest (without a ****ing fb reminder whatsoever) 'Happy birthday' without the stuff does suit me just fine. Don't get me started on Jesus.

Yeah, that works too. Or a virtual card with no funds, OR even an expired card with an updated expiry year lol.

Right, but as pointed out, this is risky business because we have no idea when Amazon UK will decide to ship the set out to the US customers. It could be a week before release, or a week after for all we know. Or maybe they won't even allow it to ship to the US. Meanwhile they may not allow you to switch over to your US address until a few days before shipping for all we know. It may be a very small window between when we can switch addresses, and when it ships. If we try to switch it over now it won't let us without voiding the order, so how will we know when we can do it without it cancelling the order?

Go get a tiny pre-paid Debit card from somewhere and use most/all the balance. Then add that card to your Amazon account and move the order to it.

That is what is shown in the picture and the only other Time Circuit set also includes steelbooks so common sense would say yes.

[TheHutt]

The UK Time Circuits box is sold out again.

The other Collector's Edition won't be out until next year. Sorry, I had it confirmed to me yesterday.

There's another one!?

Unless you mean the tat-tastic £90 one has been further delayed?
