Typical Order Cycle Timeframe Series 3

[IPadNParadise]

i ordered a space gray aluminum 42mm series 3 w/cellular on Oct 01, received confirmation email of Order in Progress. Since that date, nothing has changed. Just sitting there and CC has not been charged. Is this normal? If so, when should I look for status movement?

Yes, it's normal. Apple typically doesn't place the charge until they're shipping.

What was the projected shipping or delivery date range when you placed your order? You'll likely see nothing change with your order until a few days prior to delivery date. Unless it ships early, which can happen, but isn't predictable.

What date did Apple give for delivery?

You should see preparing for shipment and a charge on your account a few days before the delivery date. Could happen sooner as Apple is very conservative on delivery dates!

Confirmation date showed a delivery day of 10/30 thru 11/6. Just wanted to know if sitting there/no status at this point is normal. I’m just excited! Thanks for the replies.
