QUESTION: what do I do if I won't be home the day my iPad arrives??? I know I have to sign, so if Im not home what will happen???

I always have my shipping option to be held at a FedEx location near me until I can go there and pick it up.
 
Preparing for Shipment already??!! What model?

128GB, Cellular, iPad Air 2. I think it may stay "preparing for shipment" for a while because of the weekend. It just means they engraved it I guess because I can no longer cancel order. It's funny because my delivery date range seems to be later than anyone (10/29-10/31). I don't want it delivered on Halloween! I'd have to leave work early to make sure I get home in time else a trick-or-treater might step on the box...

That would be one bad trick.

I have my signature on file so they always just leave it. But you have to judge whether you think that would be safe for your situation. A year ago I left a note to have my phone left between my screen door and regular door in the back of my house. Well, I just about had a heart attack when it wasn't there. I have two back doors (one of which I don't use). That's where it ended up being - on the far side of the house.

Tim Cook knows a visionary when he sees one. It's no biggie. I'm surprised you didn't order yours through him as well.

When it gets ready to ship, there is a signature release form that's left where they can get to it, and they'll leave your package where you want. Even at a neighbors house.
 
Ordered mine 2 hours ago on 10/18 shipping to Orlando.

Sold my 1 year old 64GB iPad Air for $550 with smart cover.

How did you get such an amazing price for your iPad Air? Is this WIFI only?
Who did you sell it to?

I got quoted $280 for my Air1 32GB WIFI from Gazelle?

Refurb 64GB with cellular are going for like $530 on Apples website so I'm curious to know how you got someone to buy your iPad for so much. I have a 64GB Space Grey Air with AT&T cellular and like 5 cases and it's in perfect condition. Not selling and it's sitting at $500.

It's Wifi + Cellular
I work in a closed environment with limited access to shops and online retailers. I put it up for sale and it was sold within two hours. I probably could have got more for it, but I'm glad it was an easy sale. It was in excellent condition with no scratches or dents and I always keep the original box and packaging etc.
 
Ordered 128gb LTE Space Grey at 1pm Friday
delivers 24-28, pretty much thinking it will ship out Monday.

Target said on twitter it will have them on sale in the store on Wednesday 22? odd not to be released on Friday, but some got estimates of Wednesday for shipping so I guess Wednesday is the day.
 
I ordered iPad Air 2 WIFI 128GB Silver and iPad Air 2 Smart Case RED. Delivery estimated for Oct 23th-27th.

I sold my iPad Air WIFI 64GB White for 455€.

My iPad Air Smart Case RED was so ugly of use, I couldn't sell it and so it landed in the garbage can.

Did you know that under the leather is a plastic layer? :D I hope it is recyclable plastic. ;)
 
Has your cards been charged yet or any type of hold? I just want to be sure bank does not think its fraud again (they did with my iPhone 6 order) and block it.
 
I decided I wanted Space Gray so I called Apple this morning and they changed it. It added a couple of days to my original shipping estimate. :s

does "delivers" mean when it will be shipping to my home or when they are ready to ship?
