I'm in the queue but no estimated time.

Update: Now it says more than an hour.

Off we go, with the slow-walking dude; estimated time = 21 mins, which is slightly less than double when my wife logged in an hour early for Pro badge sales

Sucks.  More than an hour for me.  Which could be an hour.  It could be never.

Ugh. Two browsers in, one "more than an hour", one 50 minutes. This is going to go on much longer than I expected.

My walking man is walking way too fast for it to take an hour.  Way too fast.  He's like 20% of the way there.  Does he just get stuck at the end?

Doesn't appear so; I logged in w/5 mins before it started and got 21 min wait (which changed to 20 and now appears to be 19)

IIRC from Pro sales, the walking dude gets to the end and then takes you to the buying page.
FWIW my time has changed twice from 21 mins to 20 mins then 19 mins.  Just now mid-typing the time changed back to 20 mins.

No updates. Not sure if the yellow box will have updates. Comic-Con isn't tweeting this morning it looks like.

Wouldn't it be funny if there was no hard limit?  That could be why there hasn't been much news on what this con will be.  They are waiting to see how many badges they can sell and then will scale the con accordingly.  It would have been bad to plan a grand con only to have not many takers.

39 mins now!!!  That was a quick 19 mins.  Don't step away thinking you have an hour to kill.  The time estimate isn't linear.
