Wow - order went through really easily. In fact Christmas High Street 10308 showed up as available shortly before 12AM so I went for it! Had all my other items added already to get over the threshold. And had my VIP discount already in place a few hours earlier. LEGO.COM worked well for once!
PLUS: got the 40566 and 40513 bonuses!!
Later edit - I changed the name of the set as Lego now call it "Christmas High Street" not "Holiday Main Street" as Brickset named it - strange.
Yes, also ordered just before midnight with no probs. Tram, Ray II and Spooks II on way. Really wanted all 4 postcards, but London and NY out of stock, so they can wait.

It's called "Holiday Main Street" in the American LEGO.com, but "christmas-high-street" in the url. Is this some strange regional title difference? It seems "Christmas High Street" was the original name, as it is in the url, but was likely changed to a more secular title for the American Market later, but kept it's orginal name in the UK?
Followed the link to Holiday Main Street and the US Store shows…
“Coming Soon on October 7, 2022”?
Edit: The Razor Crest too!

It’s not Oct 3rd in the US yet
Not a Day 1 buy for me, but the Razor Crest will definitely be mine eventually.
Well, I feel silly. Completely forgot that VIP Early Access was a thing. Sorry
I picked up both 10308 Holiday Main Street and 40499 Santa's Sleigh (finally), so looking forward to displaying those over the Christmas holidays. For those who want to motorise the Holiday Trolley Car, 60337 Passenger Train is currently £97.50 on Amazon, which I feel is a much more cost effective way to get hold of the Powered Up gubbins.
Good development they put the instructions online already and not on the ‘official’ date. I prefer building from my iPad so I can keep my instructions clean.
So we also have a lower threshold promotion combined with Ray the Castaway. The $120 threshold is suddenly not that bad at all. The Halloween pack is brimming with useful parts.

'High Street' is also much more English than 'Main Street', which is a bit 'hood and trunk'.

My emailed confirmation says I purchased 'Holiday Main Street,' yet my online VIP account records the sale as 'Christmas High Street.' I thought perhaps it was a special name for those of us in Colorado. Now, I realize it's just a bit 'bonnet and boot.' ;)

Same here in the UK. Interesting they have multiple names for the same product in their store database within the same country.
The instructions online for the winter village all have the street sign saying "Main St" as a sticker. Are there different stickers for different locales?

"No SW GWP with the Razor Crest, no Day 1 buy from me.
This at least allows me to buy from JL or Smyths when they discount it."
Yep. $600 and no fancy lightsaber GWP? I'll probably wait a couple years for the super discounts like the UCS Falcon now has. I don't have room anyway. Lego™ knows how to squeeze the money from us, but for some reason dropped the ball on this one.

They'll drop it next month for the on-the-fencers after selling enough to day-oners.

Well the box picture on the UK sight still shows 'Main Street'. I don't think someone has thought this semi name change through very well!
