did you call a local store or did you speak to someone at a central call center?
extra tips are certainly good to have.
@jimnaze,
how did your tip change colors?
I can't answer your question, but I did drop my pencil today and mashed the tip flat. I called Apple and after a bunch of checking around they are sending 2 new nibs for about $20, including shipping.
2 nibs for 20$, 10 dollars per nib? They must be joking? I'm hoping it is two packs that includes 4 nibs or something, there is no way it should cost 20$ for just two. That's just freaking insane considering how much people would be using the pencil daily.
Not quite guys. The nibs were $5.90 each. The shipping was nearly as much as the nibs.
Well, I see why shipping was so expensive...
LMAO hilarious ...Well, I see why shipping was so expensive...
You get a spare so why order them ??
As for when to replace.. When it wears which you will notice.

That's really sad.
Why do I have a feeling your Apple rep tore these from existing pencil packaging, put it in the zip and sent it to you himself manually. I think Apple simply has not started the production of nib replacement packs. Hopefully, when they reveal it in a few months alongside USB 3.0 cables for iPad Pro, these will be cheaper to buy.
very non environmental for a company that "supposedly" takes their corporate position on environment seriously!Well, I see why shipping was so expensive...
I don't know how your nib would change colour after 2 days?!
Unless your keeping it in a very dirty location that can stain plastic.
I imagine that the nibs are not going to wear out anytime soon unless you press hard all the time when using the pencil or your an artist who uses it every day most of the day. I feel that the 2 nibs you get as standard are meant to last the lifetime of the iPad pro (unless you physically damaged the nibs by dropping/crushing etc).
I have a tempered glass protector on my pro and it works exactly the same as without.
The only issue I had was because the glass is so large I got some dirty around the edges on the iPad that I could not remove without throwing it away, but they are nowhere near The display so I am happy with it.
