OK, Let me make this simple. An apple watch is not a beanie baby. Toys R Us did not have a successful retail strategy in place that went in an entirely different direction so the illustration you give fails completely. Compensation in an ideal world should be tied to performance. Generally many people feel this, her first outing was most unsuccessful. Read the comments. I am not at all the only one who feels she completely mishandled this faux launch. Nonetheless thanks for your suggestion but I think I'll take advice from smart people and your comment would indicate I not take advice from you.

What exactly are your jimmies rustled about? Has anybody posted that their quoted delivery window has not been met yet?
 
It's funny I am one of the people in here that actually wants the watch to not come until the end of the 27th window as I am settling on a new house on the 18th and don't want it to accidentally get caught between my new and old address. Thank god for UPS my choice though.

I think that's part of the reason why I am not stressing my delivery.

As soon as it arrives. There goes my wrist. I have not worn a watch for 10 years, and I do look forward to my watch, but within the next two weeks, there will be a literal attachment to me for about the next decade, (to be replaced with iRetina contacts)

Just wanted to let you all know I was charged this morning at 7:00AM (EST) for my 42mm Milanese loop. I'm in Virginia, and I didn't have the funds on my card when they tried, so they sent me an email. I immediately ran to my bank and deposited the money needed, and called them. They sent through the order right there and then within 10 minutes of sending it through my order status changed.
I hope this helps you guys out, I've been following this thread since April 10th, lol, so I'll probably be scarce now that my watch is on it's way. It's been fun waiting with you guys!! #
 
I also see a pending charge on my cc today (5/6/2015)

I ordered the 38 mm Black Sport Band. My status is still processing items. I did run a similar issue in that I changed my credit card number due to unauthorized charges last week. Apple sent me an email saying that the charge couldn't go through. I went online to fix the issue this morning. Hopefully see a change in status by tomorrow or later today.
 
When using the UPS tracking by reference, what should I enter into the Shipment Reference field? And do I need to enter the postal code in addition to the zip?
