This exactly...
But odd that the first one I changed earlier today hasn’t got that. The second one I changed a few hours later has.

I just got a notification via text and it says EXCEPTION but when i look at the tracking it's still on track except it got scanned in ZhengZhou on 10/29 only to update on 10/30 ZhengZhou departure scan at 1:20am then a arrival scan at 1:35am odd. but the date on top still says in transit for 11/3. i assume they were scanning it between locations?
Me too. Exactly like yours. WEIRD

The exception is the status the delivery is placed when putting in a request for ‘hold for pickup’.
I got an EXCEPTION and I didn’t put anything on hold. Wth

Off topic, but anyone have an experience with adding Apple Care+ via online? Forgot to add it to my iPX order and wondering how the diagnostics check works? Thanks!
 
We are in the same boat my friend :(
I had a pending charge for taxes but that was for the 12/5 order they cancelled and it dropped today. Would have thought the 11/3 would have charged and started moving by now. I completed that order at ~5am on the 27th just 3.5 hours after the first order.
 
Yay...Mine has shipped.

I have the same status as you...doesn't necessarily mean it has shipped from ZhengZhou yet...

Same here...Still says "Preparing for shipping" on apple.com and my payment still remains processing on my cc...
 
My persistence has paid off. UPS MyChoice just updated with a tracking number. Woohoo time to go to sleep!

Went ahead and chose hold for pickup because why not.
 
I've been dealing with UPS for years now. I suggest if you can, wait until the package has arrived the day before your delivery and then make changes to pick up. It has never failed for me.

5BECBE02-1493-4D1C-B38C-1D0E93182AFF.png When I was ordering from the Apple store app at 3 am ET on Friday morning, I had a glitch which I’m now wondering is worth pursuing.

I managed to get connected at about 3:02, ordered the Verizon silver 256 GB model, signed up for the Apple Upgrade program, and then put in the payment information. There was already 11-10 mail delivery date but I was able to choose pickup on 11-3 at an Apple store near me. The next screen let me choose what time to pick up and I chose 3 pm, hit next and then the screen was just hanging forever. But it seemed as though my enrollment in Apple upgrade and payment was already complete.

App was frozen so I went to a laptop browser and tried to do the order again. When I tried to enroll in the Apple upgrade program it wouldn’t let me, said I already had a reservation(screenshot). I have not, however, gotten any email to complete my order yet. Other people in similar situations seem to have gotten emails to complete their orders. Is this worth pursuing or do I keep my backup order- from Verizon which delivers on 11/15?
 
I finally got a tracking number on MyChoice. Checking every hour paid off lol.

This is probably a good idea. Buuuut I went ahead and changed delivery to hold for pickup while I was still logged into MyChoice.

That's cool. My bro did it early too and had to wait an extra day last year. Hopefully it won't be any trouble for doing it too early this year.
