That's correct, from what I understand on their website.
My Steinheil films already shipped from Cretouch also, will update as soon as it arrives.
Got a tip for us?

Great to know - you answered my question although I just sent an email to Cretouch to ask them if it was really in stock.
How much was shipping?
What's everyone's opinion of the Incredible (ultra-matte) version of the shield? It's a full body wet application that looks a lot like a Zagg or Wrapsol. Here's a link: http://www.sgpstore.com/product_info.php/cPath/21_28_89/products_id/1454
It seems to be the only one in stock atm.

Personally, I think the wet application skins have the worst end results. The Power Support Crystal shields are practically invisible and go on dry. I ordered the Ultra Crystal from the SGP store since PS won't have theirs available for a month. If I don't like it, I'll order from PS.
Here are the shipping details from the invoice:
United States Postal Service (1 x 0.55lbs) (First-Class Mail): $2.58
Tracking number was also included.
Thanks - I'm concerned there are no cutouts other than for the back camera and front speaker.
No problem, glad to help.
I was concerned at first also, but I think it should be OK if you order the Crystal version since it's entirely clear. It should be even better because dust won't be able gather in the edges of the cutouts.
The anti-fingerprint (aka anti-glare, matte) version should have cutouts for the front camera and rear flash though because it's translucent and not transparent. I'd make sure before ordering that particular one.
I was only able to guess but apparently, the webste describes the Ultra Fine as being 30% more clear than the previous Anti Finger
looks like 6/24 for the EX anti fingerprint too..
but they also have an ebay store. so you don't have to create an account on their site and can get bing/mrrebates/ebaybucks (more info here) which should at least offset the shipping cost. here is the link to their ebay store.

Just got an email from cretouch notifying me that the ex crystal won't be in stock until 6/24
That's weird...
It says ships in 1-2 business days on their website: http://cretouch.com/product_info.php/cPath/163_172/products_id/728
Plus I got shipping confirmation from them with tracking number this morning. I guess I'll have to see what I receive in the mail this week.
I ordered from Cretouch late saturday night/early sunday morning and they delayed a day by sending me an email "confirming" my address even though it was confirmed in Paypal. I confirmed but never received a reply or shipping noticed. I emailed them and asked the status and they stated that it would not be in stock until the 24th and they would ship as soon as they could (1-2 days) and it would take 7-14 days first class mail to arrive. Im not real happy with that answer. Im considering getting a refund and ordering from SGP. They have now added a note on their site saying they wont have them in stock until the 24th, yet that wasnt their when i made my original purchase.
TO quote....their note said
"The shipment with USPS First Class Service usually takes about 7-14 days but it might take a bit longer depending on the condition of local postal system. "
AND......
"You can upgrade the shipping option to Express Mail Service, which usually takes about 1-2 days once we ship out the package. However, this shipping option is relatively expensive. If you decide to upgrade the shipping option, please let us know soon and make payment of $28 to paypal account:"
28 dollars to send a set of films!?!? that is robbery!

Look forward to seeing how the EX films are. CreTouch seems to get really awful customer service reviews.
Anyone know how much shipping is to Calif from SPG?

I ordered the anti-oil screen protectors from the sgp store
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170502271282
and they're located in California. It's the same thing as sgpstore.com, but its just their ebay store. Shipping was cheaper through Ebay, and there was no tax. I upgraded to Priority Mail and hopefully will get it sometime this week.

I'm beginning to think that this whole thing about the films being immediately available is being orchestrated by Cretouch to get customers to put down orders with them instead of their competitors. They probably won't have the product until the 24th, as most people are confirming.
Checked the tracking number they provided me and the USPS was just updated today, 6/22 to EXPECT shipment, even though they sent me an email stating it was already shipped. Technically they can just hold it for 2 days until they get it on the 24th, then ship it out.
If this is all true, then shame on Cretouch. I won't be canceling my order since I know I will be getting the films either way, but the principle is still wrong.
-1 on their company if this pans out to be true, which is what it's shaping up to be. Hopefully they prove me wrong.

That is EXACTLY what they are doing. I only ordered through them as I had never heard of the company before because I saw you posted they had theirs in stock already. I went to the site and sure enough it said that, but of course now it says "Available June 24th" in red which wasn't there before. I'm canceling my order. I rather order through SGP on principle alone. Don't lie to your "customers'. I even checked out their eBay and one of the feedback's say he was given a fake tracking #.
Yeah, same. Very irritating since at the time I ordered it was 'in stock' and would ship in 1-2 days.
I doubt SGP will be any better since they also aren't shipping until after 6/24. I emailed them yesterday and said that if you preordered prior to last week it would ship 6/24, otherwise it would be 2-3 days after the 24th.
I think I'll just leave my order as is...
I ordered the SGP Incredilble Shield Ultra MAtte and Ultra Coat last night about 9:30PM. I got an email today before noon telling me the order was shipped USPS Priority Mail.
If I'm lucky I'll have them the same day my new toys arrive...or at least be the end of the week.

I got an email from cretouch saying "Ultra Crystal EX film will be available by end of this week". This is not Anti Fingerprint EX film, they said.
ULTRA FINE EX film is the improved version of Anti Fingerprint film and it will be available sometimes in next week. They explained me that they are having some difficulties since they are trying to release many items for new devices such as iPad and iPhone4 etc...
I purchased the iPad vintage case about 3 weeks ago when it says it will be available on 6/11, but they ended up shipping it out on 6/18. I was little frustrated but they apologized me and gave me free upgrade to express mail service for the order. Their customer service was sincere and nice in offering costy shipping service.
But EX film for my new iphone, I will just get it when it's in stock next week.

Hi all I ordered the SGP Incredible Shield Ultra Matte last week. I just received it the package for it from USPS, thankfully. I got my iPhone 4 this morning wasn't planning on opening it until I had this to put on it.
Anyways going to install the shield right now and let you guys know how it is.
