My order was completed a full 2 mins before this (in Sydney), and hasn't gone PFS yet.

So, you have an e-mail confirmation time of 5:15pm then?

Keep in mind, the e-mail confirmation time is a ROUGH approximation of where you are in the queue. Obviously, if you two compared your order numbers, shillo's must have come before yours.

Well, I think US Customs works Saturdays. (I think they only day that they'
re closed is Sundays), so there's good likelihood of that being processed today.

I just chatted with the Apple Store, they said they were unaware of any customs issues. The delivery team was going to reach out UPS to see what the hold up was and what they needed to resolve so it could be delivered. They're supposed to be contacting me later today with an update.

I had set my order up to be picked up at the hub Monday morning because I'm flying to Memphis for work for 2 weeks Monday afternoon. So if I need to adjust the delivery address, I'd rather do that sooner rather then later.

Never thought about calling apple. I just called UPS lol. Just checked my tracking and it's been updated saying the clearance agency cleared it and my delivery date is back and it says monday! Since I'm holding it at the main hub in my city I'm waiting for it to get there and for ups to say my hold was successful. If they don't say that then I'll be "sick" that day waiting for it at home lol

I contacted UPS first, but I didn't know if the guy was blowing smoke up my *** b/c his response didn't make sense. He said the reason for the documentation delay was b/c the package was routed to the wrong facility, so they were in the process of re-routing it. But that it should still be available for pick up on Monday. Here's to hoping it still arrives on time.

I was told "this happens and will be resolved. Your delivery date in the system is still Monday so I wouldn't worry until Mknday".

Order numbers are not sequential, so that won't help. A chat with Apple to get the exact order time will though.

What is up with that? That's some BS.
 
fischersd said:
Hmm. Wonder why they're non-sequencial. Seems silly to randomize them.
(it would also help the indexing of the DB if they were - primary key and all that).

Security reasons. Apple may give you order information if you come up with the right number, so that makes it a little more difficult.
 
Now Shipping

My order finally shipped but it says it shipped standard shipping, arrives Wednesday? I thought they were going to ship it the fastest method possible? Wednesday really???

Wait until you get the shipping estimate from UPS - if it says Monday, you're in luck and you're on one of the shipments that are already moving.

If it's still in China, that's not entirely unreasonable.

Well, US Customs is closed on Sundays, so that will cause some delay. It can still move though. They can get it as far as Louisville or Ontario and do the customs clearance there. Now, whether they do or not?

Two extra days isn't going to kill you. :)

Complaining in here about having to wait two days is a bit of a slap in the face to the people with July dates. At least you have seen a change in status. I have been staring at June for weeks now.
 
Mine showed as shipped an hour ago. Never even got the notification it was PFS. XX:14 confirmation on April 10th. Shipping email from Apple says it will arrive on June 8th, but UPS tracking says June 5. As with other watches I've received, the UPS tracking is usually a little more accurate.

Not complaining, just wondering why everyone else is getting next day air shipping (as I was told we'd all be getting). Don't get me wrong I'm excited it shipped, just was hoping for a Monday delivery.

I think the others have already shipped (different planes) yesterday. It doesn't explain why there's a delta of two days though. Maybe your plane isn't scheduled to leave until tomorrow. Anyone's guess.
 
42" SS SB w/ June Delivery shipped today (5/30). ETA is Monday per UPS... lots of ground to cover between Shanghai and VA, USA between now and then :)

That is the fastest method from China. No such thing as overnight from China. The Sports models were shipping from the U.S. that's why they were shipping overnight
