You know that Apple makes you pay a restock fee on opened items. I know it's the case online and I bet it's also the case in their stores. I think it'll be better if you just wait a bit for your online touch.
Got a tip for us?

Do any of you have a corporate purchase deal? I'm getting my 16GB for $422, at the minimum 6% corporate discount. On a macbook pro the discount would be even larger.
I'd definitely ask - Sherway is 5 minutes from home so asking is no big deal. FS and BB don't charge you a restocking fee, so I can't see how they can.
i got mine from eaton center.they had lots 2 days ago.
i like it except wish i had a freaking sleeve.

It's so very frustrating! still in prepared to ship.
I called Apple let them know how disappointed I am because I could just waltz into any authorized retailer in Vancouver right now and get myself one. Whereas us, the royal customers, are getting screwed because we are all waiting for our shipments. Isn't that the whole point of pre-order? so I can get one FASTER then other people. Now all of us is getting them SLOWER then everyone else. What's the point to pre-order then?
This is such a bad customer relation management.
anyways, the agent I talked to could only offer to waive the express shipping fee, which is like, $13... oh well, it's not their fault but the darn Apple's fault.
Hey Apple, if you are reading this forum, make sure you can delivere what you promised! or else you'll just slowly slip into the position we all regard M$ as. Hey, you are already half way there with the iphone/ipod touch lock down, so why would you care eh? !@$#%
PS. what made me feel like such a jive sucker is that they LOCK you in with the "prepare to ship" status so you HAVE to wait for them to take their sweet time....

thats the part i hate, if your not going to ship something then why put in prepared for shipment and lock you in, they haven't processed our credit cards so why can't we cancel

my thoughts as well.
While we're on the subject, I think it is prudent to say that if we can't change the order and can't cancel it, I don't think there's a way to upgrade our shipping. I think they're just telling us what we want to hear because once they are prepared, I doubt they have any control.
But then again (and by the way) my shipping status remains "shipped by 28" but my "delivered by" has changed from 9-11 to 2-5 whatever that means.
D'oh you got 150? I thought she was going to give me max $60...but I got the cables that I wanted / will probably use. The expensive headphones will just break after a few weeks anyway. Free (almost) Nano would have been nice too though
FedEx works 24/7/365 right? Is there a chance the iPods could ship out during the weekend? I seem to remember receiving my MacBook on a saturday...
I believe so because MY IPT SHIPPED AS OF 03:18AM ****ING RIGHT!
Oh yeah... ordered on the 8th and 16gb engraved... delivers by oct 2nd!!!!!!
just got off the phone, the csr said it would most likely ship on monday or tuesday all i got was the expedited shipping. Apple is horrible why lock me into my order for over a week when your not shipping. I'm going to call my cc company and said i misplace my credit card, since i've only used it once this past month to purchase this touch. SCREW APPLE
Not to mention the person i talked to had the nerve to tell me its the "estimated ship date"
when it cleary states
Ships by: Sep 28
Delivers by: Oct 2 - Oct 5
do i see estimated anywhere?

Don't do that. If you try and sneak out of a cc charge that way, you are going to be in a world of pain when they do an investigation to see who bought an iPod using your CC #.
OMG
right after i called

Mine shipped out this morning as well! (or at least the label got put on...)
Are we all going to get the "transmitted to FedEx" thing for the next 3 days now?
Order W311 as of Sept 13.
Where can I find the Serial#? People have repeatedly said click on "invoices" in the account screen, but that shows me the same thing as when I click any other button (track package, order status, etc). Just curious what wek mine is.

Well we don't know if it actually shipped yet, or if they just attached / printed the shipping labels. They still say data transmitted which is vague and doesn't mean anything specific. Still, I'm blaming all the problems on Apple, and not FedEx.
Edit: figured out the invoice deal... week 38!
