I still haven't been charged for my April 11th order :(
Ah, but now you know you will be this week (likely before the day's out). Anyone before MacLilja in the US should be in this group being charged right now.

Edit: Might want to call your CC company, make sure they didn't see any charges from Apple and also get your order status on the online store.
 
gold, are you in the states? If you are, better check your status man - make damn sure the charge doesn't get declined! (maybe you're like me and the CC company didn't send out the notification).

Yup, 4/14, USA. Been checking the bank status page & order status like every 10 minutes haha. To be honest though, it does seem a little strange that this week went from x7:00 to 4/22 in one day, but I guess that just shows how much the order density got broken up, huh?
 
If there was a problem with the payment, there would be a red indicator on that screen telling you that there was a problem. No indication of a problem, you're good. :)

I won't be able to fully Believe that it's really on it's way already until I see the change of status. I sure hope that will be soon :)

Yep, the first day was absolutely massive...after that, it's been a trickle. Heh. I kinda thought it would be more gradual, but hey, jumping days all of a sudden is more than OK. :D
 
@MacLilja

I don't want to pop your bubble, but I don't think your watch has shipped. You reported your order status as:

Processing Items Available to ship: 3-4 weeks
Delivers: 07 Jul, 2015 - 14 Jul, 2015 by 2-3 Business Days

If so, your order is still in the "Processing" state. When it gets near to shipping it will change to "Preparing for Shipment" and then to "Shipped".

My order was in the "Processing" state from Apr-10 to Jun-15.

Edit: Sorry: I missed that your credit card was charged. Mine switched to "Preparing for Shipment" and charged my card at about the same time. Your Apr-22 order date is a little out of the curve we've been tracking so far.

Remember, we're only focused on one SKU out of thirty eight, so the drop off could be MASSIVE, if only early adopters were super keen on spending $1100 (or equivalent)

Sorry to burst YOUR bubble, but people often get charged before they get PFS.

Sorry to say, we've also had people charged and wait days before flipping to PFS. Doesn't seem to be a lot of rationale as to why it changes when it does sometimes.
 
Yeah, I was very surpriced to see the cc charged. I didn't think that would happen for at least a couple of weeks. But what has been the experience of others when the cc has been charged? That it ships at least within a few days? That would still be good and earlier than July 7-14.

I can't see then charge the cc a month in advance right?

Yeah! Mine was charged, switched to PFS within 40 minutes and then shipped within the matter of 2 hours after that.

So I think it really is random.

:) No, they don't charge a month in advance. You should flip to PFS soon.

Yeah, pretty sure that the timeline has been something like:

CC Charge, PFS a few hours or a day later, then shipped within a few days at most.

I honestly can't believe that us USA orders are already at 4/22, although it does seem a little odd that no one in the 4/11-4/21 range has gotten a charge yet (At least not on here).

Yep, but we see charges all around the clock. With MacLilja getting charged, we at least know that this wave of charges will go that far. It's a good "heads up" for the others. We have seen that. We saw it just earlier for Australia - the 22nd order was at least a couple hours ahead of the 15th order. I think it's the different banks. Apple batching charges. That's one possibility. Maybe one day we could get someone at Apple to tell us how they really sort this **** out. :)

I want some evidence of a charge, I'm not convinced I'm not getting worked up for nothing :p
