I just ordered a subscription plan. Why does it say that it will only ship in a month?

You're in! Good stuff are coming your way soon. And don't worry- it'll be there way before a month!

The date you see is referring to the next billing date. (That's for the second kit)

Your first kit will ship, as usual, on the 10th of the first month you ordered it in.

(Phew. You can breathe now.)
