Can someone explain how to track by reference? The MacRumors post says to use the phone number, but I've read it can be a mix of order number and phone number.
 
Delivery Dates 4/24-5/8

Ordered my 38mm SG and got my confirmation email @ 3:03 am est ....still no movement...never have I wanted to have a company take my money so bad lol
 
Haha no I know I was mentally saying it like an old war movie in my head and I just defaulted to "Brothers."

Cheers and may Godspeed (on your order!)

No.:mad:

Yes, I was the one who called. You can call them yourself and find out.
 
Just got off the phone with Apple. They said there was a glitch in their status system that set everyone's order to preparing for shipment. Recheck your orders guys.

I'm highly skeptical of that. The rep likely has no idea what they're talking about. Mine still says Preparing for Shipment.

In any case, what probably is happening with orders switching from Preparing back to Processing is the fact Apple has tons of servers. When you have that many servers, it takes awhile to fully propagate the data. So on one refresh you could hit the server that has your latest info, but on another you might be seeing older data. Keep that in mind.

Well for one he said PROBABLY and two he wasn't saying that you're lying. He said that the reps sometimes don't know everything..I mean look at everyone making jokes about drinking whenever someone says a rep said anything haha :p
 
Anyone with a 38/42mm Space Gray Sport been charged yet? Received confirmation for both by 3:03am and still nothing here.

Same here! 2 orders for 38 & 42 Silver are preparing for shipment but not the space gray. Bummer!
