Delivery Dates 4/24-5/8

Out for delivery! Now I just sit and wait for the delivery scan. Maybe I should get some work done...

I have never had the delivery driver not leave a package (including many iPhones) but I left a note anyway. And my husband may be home anyway as he wont be leaving the house til 10 or 11.
 
dont laugh at me..

Yes guys.

PLEASE THANK YOUR DRIVERS IF YOU ARE GETTING DELIVERIES

They are doing a thankless job and are working hard to make a lot of people happy.

I will be sure to thank my driver this afternoon.

I'll gladly accept whichever watch you are receiving today and promise to return it when mine finally shows up since you clearly have more patience than I.

Except for the fact that you were never promise a launch day watch just cause you stayed up late.
It's still 4/24-5/8. They haven't told you wrong.

HOW. It is still 4/24-5/8. Apple hasn't done anything wrong. They didn't promise you launch day delivery. You gave yourself that hope.

I am so SICK of hearing this!! I've seen people who ordered the exact same watch well after me get theirs today; I've seen people who were told when they ordered after me to expect June deliveries get shipping notices already. This tells me Apple, who bases these estimates on real information, from production schedules to resource deliveries, etc, NOT by conjecture; utilize their resources to fulfill orders "out of order". I've seen Apple though the years be nothing but fair as far as "first come first serve".

Yet I sit here. No watch. Not expecting one today. That's disappointing, but certainly not the end of the world. Logistically, what Apple is doing makes NO sense; which is why this launch can be considered a failure. But to be told "you gave yourself that hope", please.
 
I am in Hong Kong and walking around the streets today it amazes me how many are for sale on the streets. Mostly sports versions are available and are selling fur a minimum of $800USD each.

How do they get hold of so many for themselves to rip people off while the real fans miss out completely.

Same here - all this hype and talk about fairness.
Talking about over promising and under delivering.
It's one thing to just wait, it's another to see just getting jumped in line and Appple not standing up for that. I lost a lot of respect for you today - Apple

Because. Apple is filling out orders in order for each SKU.
AWS with PSB and GSB are getting filled extremely fast, and many June delivery quotes were gross overestimates.
SS with BSB or CLB Were ordered by a ton of people (more than I expected) and I imagine more than Apple anticipated. Guessing which out of 38 SKU's is going to need the most models is a difficult task.
I honestly believe a lot of 4/24-5/8 quotes for the SS w/BSB and SG w/BSB are underestimates and Apple is going to have to book it on the production line to make it by 5/8.

And here is what other people don't realize.
EMAIL CONFIRMATION TIME ≠ ORDER TIME.
Email servers can slow down emails, so someone who ordered at :01 could get it at :15.

Also, you try to keep up with the order 829297392927/719991918--918)3;8/ orders came in within 5 minutes.
GL.
 
Y'all are some ungrateful people. It's sad how some of you are acting. Grow up and stop acting like a child
 
Mines almost here! Out for delivery! It's just outside my city but I guess it'll go the furthest first and then com closer. UPS says I'll receive it by this afternoon. No big deal. I also signed up for personal setup because why not?

He is entitled to an order status update after waiting two weeks. If all online stores worked that way, no one would use them. Transparency is key to a good ecommerce experience.

Exactly! This whole process would have been easier to take if FIFO. Should be easy for a logistics expert. :D
