If the Track Shipment link in the Apple Store shows Syncreon Parcel Deivery and your reference starts with 8, then its almost surely Uk Mail

Thanks for this. I was about to rage at my iPad being out for delivery today as I would normally have today off work but switched my day with tomorrow!
 
Does anyone know the catalogue numbers for iPad 3 for Argos?

You might also consider PC World if you have one close by, (not that I would give them one penny unless I really had to).

They do Reserve and Collect although it's not available on their website at the moment.

HTH

Think I have found where my iPad is being held, it says it's due tomorrow and here is the nearest TNT depot to where I live :D

Their website says its coming march 16th

Hi Superk

The new iPad won't appear in the new Argos cataloogue as it was released in January (before officially announced)

It will probably appear in the new Argos catalogue which will be out in June/July

:D
 
TNT started working for me. Ahh...good ol' Nuneaton. Many a Apple package have rested there temporarily whilst on their way to yours truly.

That's exciting! Which number did you use to track with TNT please? Clearly I'm about to do the same!!

The tracking (consignment) number that's about 8-9 digits. Your reference number is the "Our Delivery Reference Number"

I think I might have been being a bit daft!

I'd already seen mine on UK Mail's website but I'd presumed they were simply moving it from Syncreon to TNT but it looks like they are delivering it to the door as they have my delivery address on their website!

So you can't buy it from Argos before June?

Ah, Syncreon are one of many carriers, but I think they've been holding most of the stock that were in the UK, but are now delivering to customers.

I would say you can - they have price reductions and new products all the time, which aren't in the home catalogue - you can view them online and in the 'in store' version of the catalogue.

And it is on their website so no way would they advertise it on their website and then not have them before June.

i have noticed that my TNT tracking number changed today, it was originally the same as the reference number but has now changed, just something i noticed.

Interesting.. I thought to give it a go.
Tomorrow morning I plan to check it in PC World, Comet, Argos.. I might get lucky.

At the moment only PC World is claiming they will be on sell from tomorrow (actually from the midnight). Still I am confused does this mean PC World stores will be open the whole night?

Would doubt it but maybe you can click and reserve on their website from midnight.

Anyone's UPS details give any other info other than 'processed ready for UPS'? It says a shipping label has been created but still no estimate delivery date?

Anyone else had luck with UPS? I normally get mine via TNT and they seem to be a lot better at providing tracking info!
