But paul, this is the INTARWEB!  Everything must happen INSTANTLY if an 
order is placed via the magical intarweb!  Everyone knows that the laws 
of physics and sanity and the real-world in general don't apply to 
INTARWEB BUSINESS, because INTARWEB business exists in a different 
universe from regular business.  That's why all those .com companies did 
so well and there was no 'dot com bust' because of course all those 
completely insane business models didn't matter in the world of the 
intarweb.

Get real, folks.  Stuff takes time.
