Because the Watch is over Best Buy's $35 expedited shipping threshold, they all should've been free 2 day shipping. But it seems like those of us who had ours shipped last week are having ours shipped ups ground with the expected delivery date still Wednesday :( my tracking info hasn't even been updated for the past 60 hours since it left Ohio...

Not every item is free two day shipping if it's over $35.. gotta read those ****

Oops! It didn't even give me any other option for shipping other than free 2 day when I ordered, but I guess that might've been because I'm one of their "elite plus" members. Or I guess it could've been because I ordered on the 9th so the only shipping option was for t to get here on launch day on the 16th, but for some reason it labeled the launch arrival as two day shipping.
 
I just ordered the S2 SS Silver Milanese loop and i paid for shipping to receive it on 9/28. So we'll see if I get it Wednesday or not.

Yeah annoying that it isn't probably going to be as fast as free 2 day shipping is. Mine is still somewhere between Atlanta and Syracuse since 4am on Saturday. Wish they would hurry up and update. Still holding out hope it gets to Atlanta tonight and the distribution center necessary for my delivery.
 
I called Best Buy and my watch STILL has not shipped. They say it is waiting for ups to pick it up. Ridiculous.
 
If and when Best Buy misses the delivery date what then? I didn't order the first time around in time to get the $50 gift card emailed to me so would they just do it again?
 
Those who had UPS as their shipment carrier, does your tracking come with a reference #/ ID? Like how the Apple iPhone's reference was our phone #s.

I wonder if we can check on any possible upcoming shipments if they have reference ID

Any idea about this?
 
Got shipment notification this afternoon. Scheduled for 9/28 delivery!

Thats crazy how you just ordered today and got Shipping notification.

i ordered on 9/19 and mine is still Preparing your item for shipping.

Ill be lucky to get mine by the end of the month.

I ordered the same watch the day before you, still in Preparring for Shipping, No shipping notification. But I took the Free Shipping. If I get it by Friday I will be happy.
 
Still Preparing. I ordered just after midnight on the 9th, btw. If it doesn't at least ship, by Wednesday, I'm definitely cancelling. Already used the $50 though. /sigh

I paid for the "release" shipping for 9/28. I hope you get yours this week for sure.
 
Ordered 9/13 & paid for launch shipping - received shipping notices for both watches today. Fingers crossed for Wednesday!
 
Tracking information was updated! The watch is in transit and the expected delivery date is Wednesday!
 
Ordered 9/19 and 9/23- both watches are preparing for shipment... chances they make it here before Wednesday=slim

I don't understand what Best Buy's process is for determining who gets a watch. I ordered a 42mm AW Series 2 Stainless Steel Sport Band on 9/21 and mine is arriving Wednesday. Yet there are people who ordered the same watch a week before me and it still hasn't even shipped...

I mean I personally can't complain, but that is pretty crappy.
