I was poking at my WL and tried sorting it by "estimate" by ASC or DESC and in both cases the books at the top have "N/A".

The help files say it will show N/A if it isn't posted enough for an estimate, but I'm surprised NONE of the 499 books on my WL have an estimate.

Is my WL really that esoteric (some sure, but all?) or is this feature not working right now?

I have the same results: 496 books and no estimates.

Of my 270 WLed books only one had an estimate. However, some haven't been posted in years and others haven't been published yet. Pat

I believe it is. I have 115 items on my WL. Only one has an estimate...it had wishes granted last week: 2. I am #56 in WL line, divide that by 2 wishes per week = 28 wks estimate for when I will receive it. It makes sense, I guess.

Happy reading!!!

I have 500 books WL, and 5 estimates . However in my case I keep going up in the queue..I guess people are taking their books off hold.
