Ok... really stupid question. 😱 Does Apple ship on Saturdays? I'm trying to time my iPod purchase to arrive after I get back from travel. 😀
 
Yes, they do. I ordered my iBook last year, and it came on a Saturday. Unfortunately, I wasn't home to sign for it, so I had to wait another three days to get it!

Apple ships via DHL/Airborne, UPS, or maybe FedEx, and to my knowledge, none of them ship on the weekends. Sorry.

😀 No reason to be sorry... I don't want them to ship! 🙂 If they shipped on Saturday, I might not be home to get it later next week. Thanks!

It says 1 to 3 days to ship... I'll probably get it engraved. Yeah... I know. I can't resell as easily. I doubt I'd want to though. 😉

Last Year?! Damn looks like you better pay for the express shipping. 😀

Edit: On further review of your post, I have concluded that I am not funny. 🙁

Umm... Yeah. That made me about spew my Diet Coke. I could be tired though. 🙄
 
Well, I think it's funny to those of us who should have gone to bed hours ago... 😛

Perfect example right there. When I start double posting in my delirium, it's time to call it a day. 😱

It's only 10 pm here. 🙂 Long week. I'm in Arizona. I'm sure it's pretty late in Tampa!
 
Good for you, good for those who have received stuff on weekends, in germany they ship things - not from apple - on saturdays... 😡

Here the delivery is made by TNT ... yes, TNT 😛

I remember when Panther was released, I talked to a man from apple and he promised to send the box early, so I could enjoy it on weekend, do you remember there was a big count down? ... I cancelled some appointments but... Nothing, Nichts, Nada ... I called TNT and they stopped deliveries at 16:30 and they said my box should be on monday early at home... suckers!!! I still have a hard time about that 😱
