Anybody see any shipping movement on New Powerbeats?

I just got an email that says delivery by 5/14, however my tracking app says delivery tomorrow!
 
I got my confirmation email at 9:03 central, got an email yesterday saying delivers 05/10, stayed that way most of the day, I looked last night at 7 and the date has changed to 5/11. Apple’s site had originally said 5/14-5/21 but changed yesterday to 05/10 but now also says 05/11. Kind of a bummer but not a huge deal...mine is shipping by FedEx
 
Mine were scheduled to deliver today and have now moved to Monday and I ordered immediately upon going on sale. Pointless to pre order if you can go to Best Buy or the Apple Store and buy them the day of release. Not very happy if this is true. This isn’t a new iPhone release so I know demand can’t be THAT high.

Honestly...I really doubt you'll be able to walk into any of those stores and buy them today. I wasn't able to get on the pre-order and have been checking both Best Buy and Apple site for availability. Looks like Best Buy is sold out and Apple says in store pick-up until the June 12th.

Best Buy’s website has always said shipping only. Or “Ships when available” Apple is clearly holding these back on purpose and I don’t understand why. If they’ve already left Apple, then just let them ship already!

What part of Houston are you in? I have been checking the site in hopes that some become available for today.
 
The NYC Apple stores haven’t received them yet. FedEx is delivering mine today, excited to try them out after all the great reviews coming out.

Did you pay for expedited shipping? If yes, then I guess it's ok that you're aggravated. If not, just chill out and wait until Monday.

It’s all good, I’m just an anxious person(at times). I wanted to try them out over the weekend but will get them when I get them! Also no expedited shipping.
 
None of the stores in the NoVA/DC area had any stock as of about 10:20AM. I stopped in the Tysons store and the master inventory utility showed nothing in the area.

Some of y’all are salty. I paid for expedited but I’m happy for those who are getting it early too and didn’t pay for it. Hopefully karma comes back around one day for those who did pay extra. It’s $8 bucks, people.

I get it, but $8 tacked on to $272 makes it hurt a little more when in reality it’s for nothing. It’s just kinda sad to see Apple even offer that for no reason. Shame on them..lol

What’s the point of having the launch today if there’s zero stock?

Was the release date ever official from Apple for today or was that just rumored? Also congrats to those that get them today! We'll all get them soon enough and look back at this thread and laugh.

You’re a patient man. When I am told a day for launch I expect to have it in my hands that day. I can’t even wait for a woman to take off her clothes I rip them off for her..:p

My attitude has changed a little after seeing the date change from Today to Monday. But what can you do? Lol. Amazon has everyone spoiled with 2 day shipping. It stings a little waiting over a week for something lol.
 
Nothing in the Chicagoland area and no Best Buy’s either. Very strange for Apple. Even iPhones have walk in availability on the day of release.

Agreed. I wonder why that is?
After having watched his video, now I want them even more. He’s usually not too favorable of these types of products. I expected a negative review and it was mostly positive.
