Also preparing for shipment - finally!

Just noticed within the past half hour or so around 8:30PST

I ordered my 42" SS black sports strap with email confirmation 12:02am

Edit - I'm in BC Canada
 
Can we pretty confidently say that orders aren't being fulfilled in the order they were received?

I have a verified confirmation of :03 and still no charge.
 
Preparing for shipment!!!!! Hamilton Ontario, just noticed now at 11:39pm

3:03eastern confirmation
 
I'm guess cards have stopped being charged? No charges and no change from processing order. Confirmation email 2:04 central time.
 
Is it possible email notifications may not be accurate representations of time ordered? I'm not trying to discount everyone, just thinking that different mail servers behave differently.
Could be. I'm just reporting what my Mail header is showing. Never thought less than a minute in an order would make a difference :-/

My email is :06. Swore I ordered by :04. Not sure now. Been a while. Good luck! Guess I'm closer to the end of the line.

Email received time depends a lot on mail server. Some take 5 minutes or more before they are time stamped and delivered. So an :08 might really have been an :01 order.
 
I thought someone had verified that Saturday deliveries were happening.

Seriously? I'm in Toronto and the only company that does that I know of is DHL.
UPS is Mon-Fri I'm pretty sure. Doesn't matter though, I'm not getting a delivery notice this late on a Friday sadly. I'll hope for a Tuesday delivery if I had to guess.

I know. I wish I was able to see my actual order time, but I cannot. I haven't checked the desktop version, though.
 
For what it's worth...

42 SS BSB.
NYC, order confirmed at X:03:39, Amex via Apple Pay.
Got the email at 10:56pm ET on Wednesday night.
Still no charge, order still processing.

I'm not trying to instill false hope. UPS is same here in States. However, some businesses have a Saturday delivery with ups. I'm not sure how it works up your way, but Apple has done Saturday's before and someone several pages back posted, possibly fake but hoping not, a reply about Saturday deliveries happening.

NYC here also. Confirmed 3:04AM, AMEX via Apple Pay.
EOD 11:08PM ET on Wed night.
No charge and still processing.
 
But back at comment #4542:



So there's something wrong; either (1) you and/or Aarsinic are mistaken about the time your order was logged by Apple or (2) the fill-preorders-strictly-in-the-order-they-arrived idea is wrong. (Possibly his/her e-mail software rounded a 12:03:32 receipt up to 12:04??? If so, you may be right on the brink.)

I suppose neither you nor Aarsinic specifically mentioned that you're talking about a 42mm SS BSB, but I'm presuming that that's implied....


Yes 42mm SS BSB. San Diego. Email confirmation at 12:04 pst. I also got EOD.

I don't know if UPS does Saturday deliveries in Canada. Can anyone confirm? Has Apple done Saturday deliveries in the past with other launches? I always line up at the physical store so I've never followed online like this before.
 
here u go
