It makes sense. If the orders that were placed in the spring are still on back order, every order placed since then would get have a progressively longer and longer wait time as the lists build. As long as the backorder list is growing faster than the fulfillment, the wait time should be getting longer.

When i place my order in June, wait time was quoted at 6-8 weeks. When i called around in Oct, wait times were being quoted at 3-5 months.
