ahh, maybe thats why.... seems a bit strange even though i ordered on release day ...
they said before the 14th i.e. tuesday
It took mine 2 days to go from Shanghai->Alaska->Memphis->Witchita, so I wouldn't be partucularly worried if I were you. Even if they are late (which I don't think they will be), it would only be one dayI'm growing rather concerned now because it's Sunday afternoon here and Monday morning in China. FedEx still has to fly it to Anchorage and have it clear customs, then fly it to Memphis, then fly it to Oakland and transport it by ground a good 2 hours to me, and according to them they'll do all that by Wednesday.
ProbablyI'm also curious, I payed for Next day shipping, it shipped September 11th. today is the 12th and it's still in China, and it's looking like it won't arrive until Wednesday or even later since there's so many steps. Do I still have to pay for next day shipping even though the entire thing will take 4 days?
Not sure why FEDEX has done this crazy movement of my iPod. If, you look at 9/11 entry for arrival at Ontario, CA this is about 15 minutes from my home. They then sent it back to Memphis. I was hoping to pick it up from the facility in Ontario, but of course they said no. They may have sent it on this stupid journey to make sure, I don't get it before 9/14

This is a great sadness...I'm not that excited anymore. I feel like i want to return it.
It'll probably be there Monday or Tuesday, they never change the est. delivery date regardless of when it's actually delivered![]()
extremely strange, I would call and ask.
I also question why every single FedEx shipment has to go to Memphis? what if you lived in Anchorage and ordered an iPod touch? would they send it to Memphis anyways just to bring it back to the same FedEx location? I speculate it's FedEx code that all shipments must go to the HQ just for the hell of it. Also, some shipments are extremely special and must go there twice, like yours![]()
Yeah! Across the world in 3 business days...not bad Fedex.At FedEx destination facility HOUSTON, TX
Mine somehow did not go through Memphis.
Kunshan-->Shanghai-->Anchorage, AK-->Newark, NJ-->Dulles, VA-->Alexandria, VA-->My home!
I am utterly puzzled as to why mtwilford's touch is going through Memphis twice.
After waiting, complaining and bitc..... Finally, an asian Fedex employee has delivered my ipod touch! I just compared to the 2nd Gen ipod touch, this new one is a bit thinner and slim than the 2nd gen.
I HATE FedEx!!! still going to take till Friday to be delivered even though it's only 6 hours away, all because I didn't pay $10 extra bucks to have it delivered tomorrow,so it's just going to sit down in Oakland for a week....![]()
I got the regular shipping.
FedEx said my package would be here on the 16th, but it arrived today. I am pleasantly surprised.
In the past FedEx has always delivered before the posted date.
