I have a book on my Wish List with a current Estimate of 245 weeks! It's nice to know that I can expect to get that book sometime in early 2020. Has anyone ever had a longer estimate? And is there any reason the Estimate number goes over 50, much less into three digits?

My longest estimate is 325 weeks. It will likely shorten over time as more copies enter the system. They tend to make huge leaps and get way shorter. 

I actually find those long Estimates disappear off the list pretty quickly, as the few copies that have been posted, one a week, don't maintain that rate after awhile. Meanwhile, other books have several Wishes granted in one week (or at least one copy rolled through a few people), and that book doesn't have an estimate at all. I'm not sure how the algorithm works, but it seems to be pretty quirky.

A 325-week estimate is pretty funny.I wonder just how high it would go?

Every single one of my WL books has an estimate of NA.  Hmmm........

27 1/2 years!!!!!!!!!!! That exceeds my life expectancy LOL
