I also live in Portland and it's *so* very frustrating to watch my box bounce from Troutdale up to Washington, only to come back down to Portland. It usually takes me three or four days to get my box once it's arrived in Troutdale!
I commented earlier about my account, how I haven't been charged for a December box (it just says "pending") and it says my next shipment is January! I know it's not an issue with my credit card, as I've used it to make other purchases (including the women's LE box. . .I used the JOY code to get a second December box for gifts. There's been no movement on my LE box and I am very doubtful I'll get it by Christmas).
Anyway, I emailed PS customer service this morning and haven't heard anything back yet. As a longtime customer, I find this situation with my regular December box really annoying. When I checked the FAQ, it says December is 'sold out' so I'm actually worried I might not get the JOY box or the monthly box.
