Not here yet just a couple hours south of you. So at least I don't think it's an individual thing.
AndrewT,
I'm just happy I found them. I think they were pretty much the only option for heatsinks here that fit the board closely enough. The only other options I was finding was paying crazy money to have one shipped here from EU.
I think they'll come in USPS, not UPS.
Also, in a previous post I had a link to HeatsinkUSA. They have acceptable sizes for the build and can be cut to the height you want so it'll fit in your case of choice. for a 3U case, a 4" cut was perfect. The one you posted should work, but when I looked, it was crazy expensive to ship to the US.
I think you'll want one with a thicker base. I believe I did the 7.280". It looks like the 4.230" one has the same thickness base. I would wait until you get the board so you can measure to be sure.
Yes, that's right! I've double-checked the address at PayPal and it's correct. I hope the boards will arrive this week

if I remember the BOM correctly length shoud be 150 mm or 200 mm.
I think 75 mm is too small.
The Fischer SK92 150SA has a R(th) of < 1 K/W. Thats better than the Pada from the BOM.

I used the 7.280" - HeatsinkUSA cut to 4". Worked perfectly in a 3U case. I honestly think it may of been overkill and if I do it again will use a 2.5 - 3" cut and try to squeeze it in a smaller chassis.
Also, I mentioned it earlier, but the thread over in the ChipAmps forum has a lot of good information. My build along with a couple others are posted in it and it answered a lot of the questions I had.

Thanks for the info.
I have some of the 5.375" but were cut to 8" long. Classic case of whatever you have never fits
Go into Paypal and check your shipping address. To me it looks a bit suspect. If we are lucky the letter will be returned after four weeks. The address goes to a shopping mall? (According to Google)
