Still a bit peed off that those of us who ordered the Pencil online from the Apple store as soon as they went on sale on the 11th still have our orders stuck at "processing"!

What time did you order on the 11th? My 11:30am pencil order (and beards, another MR member's 11am order) were both delivered yesterday. We both had a delivery window 19-26 Nov which they met with a day to spare.
 
Well done azing! Ordered what will be my 2nd Apple Pencil from John Lewis - I plan to keep one at home and one at work. I will wait until I get dispatch confirmation before I cancel my Apple online order (due late December)

Nice! I'm not getting my hopes up till I get the dispatch confirmation though...
Fingers crossed. Order confirmation received.
John lewis are pretty good at not screwing up. Im cautiously confident we are OK here.

Roll on Saturday (they tend to alert you well before 2pm for in store collections)

Happy Happy Happy

Now your hitting my paranoia nerve.

Should I go to the local Apple Store tomorrow anyway as an insurance policy and buy from them if they have anything ?
 
So, the flagship Apple Stores in the UK get no more than 25 per shipment and John Lewis manages to get 500?

Sorry to be negative guys, but unless every Apple Store in the country becomes a Pencil and Keyboard emporium this seems like a technical glitch.

I know what you mean as it sounds ridiculous but....


- Best Buy in America has been getting a lot more stock than us Apple stores

Keep the faith - John Lewis Apple employee told me earlier in week to keep checking website as they were expecting a big shipment (delayed from last week).

This should be the real deal - Apple must've promised JL the delivery ages ago.

Hope this post doesn't come back to bite me... Ha!

Exactly, I noticed this too! The stock number is increasing over time! Screams glitch.
Gone down again!!! Fingers crossed that they have a sophisticated system that updates in real time as individual items are scanned, or that some were added back to stock list as peoples cards failed.

At least Saturday is sooner than apples delivery estimate!! So can hope

I'd be hopeful guys. I got my 6s plus from John Lewis when Apple were all sold out. And when asking over the week they have been expecting a big shipment since the Pro was released so let's hope this is it. If it's true and you've all got orders then I'm happy!

I was told about big shipment too - happy days, let's hope it's true!
