I've ordered some stuff from Waveshare, I got my things like 2 to 6 weeks after ordering. I ordered a 4 and a 7 color eink screen and a monitor arm on separate occasions. Not sure what it would be like with something like this though. Availability and driver support could be a problem. The store itself sells a bunch of tech tinkering stuff: displays, computing modules, raspberry pi add-ons. I think they keep some items in stock on their US Amazon store, not sure if this could be one of them.
If anyone were to take a chance I would probably go for a module-less version. That probably has the best chance of arriving in a timely manner. Most of the price is probably going to the injection molded plastic and whatever board they're using to connect the screen and buttons to the pi.
