Guys - chill. The way China works is you pay in advance, and then they produce the product. Obviously, FMG is being screwed by the factory here, they most probably are slotting larger orders in front of him.
It isn’t his fault the product hasn’t arrived… Do you really think he doesn’t want these pieces as badly as we do? For him they represent a money stream, he has a lot of funds tied up in the pieces (and pre-order funds as well) and the only way to recoup those is to get product in hand.
Patience.
