My UPS story:
Online it's been showing delivery scheduled for Monday, Dec 17th. Being the impatient person I am, I called UPS on Wednesday and asked how the package was doing, they told me it was on its way to Kentucky from Alaska, it was guaranteed to be delivered by Friday, Dec 14th. I was impressed and even told the person that online it was showing the 17th, they assured me the 14th. Okay, cool.
I call again on Thursday (yesterday) and I get the same story, yup, guaranteed delivery on the 14th. Interesting I think to myself, online it still hasn't been updated since the 11th, showing its departure from Alaska.
This morning I wake up, check online, still last update showing departure from Alaska. It's been three days without any updates. I call again to double check delivery, and the person tells me my package is stuck at customs and won't be delivered until Monday, Dec 17th.
Now, this is fine by me, it's been showing the 17th online this whole time, but why did the other people keep saying guaranteed delivery on the 14th? Random to say the least.
I'm just happy to be getting it this early anyways! When Apple said Ships December, I thought for sure Dec. 31st.
