My :apple: shipments always come via FedEx. I don't expect to receive a shipment notice until tomorrow.

I did just receive a shipment notice for my extra charger, which is shipping today for delivery on Friday.

Mine are usually FedEx as well. However my extra charger is coming from FedEx but watch is coming from UPS.
 
You keep reiterating false information. I got shipping notification from UPS two days ago. I live in Northern California, with the distribution center in Southern California (Rialto).

I'm not the only one:

No one else in that thread has any UPS/FedEx info. In fact, they only reference one person in a different thread who claims to have gotten UPS shipping information...so like I said, very few/no customers outside of the TN catchment have received any UPS information.

On the other hand, a ton of us (including myself) have switched to "preparing for shipment".

Edit: that person is actually you. You're the only one.
 
Seriously.

Here's a graphic that Tim Cook just sent me.

Just some tips for finding tracking by reference. The shipping to date has a calendar control which doesn't allow you to pick dates in the future. However you can type in a future date.

It couldn't find any tracking numbers if I specified a to date of '04/22/2015' but specifying '04/23/2015' DOES find it. Looks like my label was created in the future because it shows:

Label Created On: 04/23/2015

Well I guess in China it's currently the 23rd.


I found mine yesterday afternoon EST and it said created 4/23. I think they'll be in the hands of UPS tomorrow and sent UPS Next-Day Air for Friday delivery. That's just my guess.

Really want it to get into the UPS system because I believe at that point the "Hold For Pickup" option becomes available. I really want to grab it at the UPS hub first thing in the morning before they ever attempt delivery, which is usually late afternoon.
 
I received my charger via UPS today. Came from the Harrisburg, PA UPS Dist Center.

I'd rather have FedEx... they always deliver by about 1:30pm.... UPS is all over the map, but usually after 6pm
 
Didn't realize until now that the Apple Care charge hit my checking account yesterday.

Peed a little at first but now I'm filled with false hope.
 
do you think we will see charges and updates right after the anchorage flights land, or will it happen after they land in the various continental U.S. regional distribution centers?
 
they aren't having issues. this is the leading company, you seriously sit there and believe the watch put apple in a unforeseen jam? you're silly...

just because your watch might not be delivering/trackable yet, doesn't mean apple's having issues.....there are 3million orders, someone's bound to get caught in the late batches....just chill with the i want it now mentality

Sorry I insulted your company. A spade is a spade
 
Yep, I recall seeing updates starting around 1-1:30 PDT, so around 30 minutes to an hour. Oh dear Apple gods, let our watches be on that plane!
 
I know my window of delivery goes until the 8th of May, but wouldn't you think that if there were a mass shortage of SG 42mm that Apple would contact those customers and let them know that their shipping date would most likely slip due to demand. Apple has amazing customer service...
 
Hope so, looks like the first plane is set to land 1206 local anchorage time. next one after is 1216. Third is at 1236 and the fourth is 1246. The next 3 is later on.


Yeah that's been the activity flurry the past days. Get braced!!!
 
Here's to hoping for some good news in the next hour or so! I just want Apple to take my money and give me my damn watch!
