Your order position won't be penalized for any time it takes to send you ...

[subject]

From BFL order confirmation e-mail:

"Your order position won't be penalized for any time it takes to send you this payment information. Please send me an email with a copy of the wire confirmation form. Once payment has been received, I'll respond with final confirmation of your order."

Is this valid?

Can I have ordered the first week, have order number 0500, have paid last week and still be number 0500 in the list?

I read someone from BFL writing about payment date being the data they look at when they ship out the initial products. But that doesn't agree with the e-mail I received. Any input?

You can have order 500 with a paid date of 27/11/2012.
The orders are shipped on paid DATES not order numbers.

Yes, they will be shipping by the date an order has been paid, not the date it was placed.

The only exception to this is Bank Wire Transfers. If You place an order, and BFL takes 12 days to contact you and give you all the info you need to make a wire transfer, then they subtract 12 days from when the order is paid.

You read the email wrong.  BFL has stated they that they would not count the time it between when you ordered and when they sent you wire information against your order time.  So it if took them two days to send you the confirmation email after you placed an order, and then you paid immediately, those two days would not count against you.

No, you read it wrong.  "The position won't be penalized for any time it takes to send you (the customer) this payment information." it says nothing about receiving the payment.

You read my post wrong.  What you are describing is exactly what I was describing.
