Did Apple shut of my order cancelling for abuse?

With all due respect, it wasn't Apple that goofed. All the evidence in this thread suggests that it was you who goofed up your response to the launch.
In support of that proposition, there are many users currently wearing Apple watches. Same launch, but we didn't goof
My bet is that the have a system to catch bots and your frequent account activity set a warning flag. Once you call and they know you are human, they'll probably reset your account to basic user, or whatever they call it.
"The journey is the reward"? I think someone wrote a book about that.

I have only had 1 order at a time.
It's their fault.. If they would just ship something.. I would quit changing my mind or being impatient
Apple is not taking a chance and if you did as you say, Apple was being patient as if I were Apple I would have done it way sooner.
tbqh - returns cost Apple a ton of cash. Why would they prevent an abuser from cancelling an order, knowing that they will probably either resell for a rediculous profit, or return the watch once they receive it for a full refund? It just doesn't make sense that you wouldn't be allowed to cancel. They have software to just eliminate the order once its cancelled and move the next guy/gal up in line...

It's their fault that you can't make up your mind?
(I'm in a 'June' delivery for my black SS ... no date yet, but that's ok, I know it's coming)
one word : "unreliable" customer OP. heck i would proably ban your ass if you keep doing that to my power or melee orders. my company has no cancellation policy and sometimes we do allow cancellations but its rare and only max to 2 or 3 per customer since our orders range min 10k to anywhere in millions, depending on customer's company and order lot. since we have to bring the powders and melee from india via armored security companies (brink's mostly) and pay a hefty amount of duty and import taxes in india and more so in america plus sales taxes and stuff.

They give you a shipping window when you order. It is not their fault that you are so ridiculously impatient that you then cancel and try to get something else when the delivery window hasn't even arrived yet.
You're acting like a spoiled child.
If I were Apple, I wouldn't have cut off your ability to cancel, I would have cut off your ability to order.
No... I am pretending that I can't cancel since it will be shipping really soon. Considering not a single SS link has been delivered in the entire world..... I have as good a shot as anyone to see it next week
This was VERY nice of you to do this so we all now know what will happen if we had done this!
I had considered doing something like this but was worried about what would happen if Apple was to become annoyed!
well this is what I deserve for teasing you! Karma got me good!
my Credit Card that I had used for my orders was comprised and the bad guys tried using it today.
I called Apple Sales to swap out the bad card with a good card and they caught me with 3 orders and forced me to cancel one before they would replace the CC.
yes the 2 Watch per person is a Firm rule!
I was busted!
