I talked to Apple about 5 times. I was told "give it 24-48 hours and it would all work out" and "It's a glitch and you should be fine" to this morning's, sorry, it looks like these are your dates. Still ZERO explanation from them om "postal service" delivery. from seeing everyone on here that had Postal Service that is now coming UPS I am not too worried about how it'll come, just when. I will keep the group posted when I see any movement.
Got a tip for us?

I know other carriers like DHL would send the clearance docs ahead of time, eg, your package is still in China but the info is already sent to the custom so that it can be pre-processed, and once the packages arrives, it will be soon released.
Don’t know if that is the case for UPS as well.
The carrier information on my Apple order just updated from "Postal Service" to "Pony Express." j/k 😂
YEs yes yes... at that time I was a senior high school student/early BS (don't remember) and I've always loved tech and apple. And because I didn't (nor my parents) had money for luxury phones, I couldn't get it. But, yes, without hesitating I can say that model was one of the finest from apple yet to date. I just hope they bring back the brushed stainless steel borders. these new models, it seems a "cheap plastic simulating steel frame."
The customs paperwork is in the Louisville systems. Its waiting for the pallets to get there.
For the record, its just the paperwork that is being processed because eventually it needs to go through customs when it reaches KY. Mines still in ZZ just like everyone elses.
Also UPS will likely make this remain hidden for a while.
100% agree with you. I'm just ready for a new design Watch.
So I am wondering if the flights just aren't filed yet. I'm not seeing any flights on larger freight planes out of ZhengZhou. Don't know much about how UPS does things tbh.
I agree 100%! I much prefer the brushed stainless steel over the polished ones.
Good point. Last year that last batch that was stuck in China had a weird Kalitta flight that popped last second. It took off and everyone's scans started populating.
I agree. Hopefully, we all depart together in one plane this year. That would be ideal.
Love the idea but too much security risk. Millions perhaps billions of dollars are being transported to another country. They wouldn't live stream it.
Thanks for that detail! I’d always gone through AT&T Next (though ordering through the Apple Store app) and had to use Apple’s financing this year because AT&T was having issues, so I had no clue what CB’s timeframe usually is.
I have a feeling they will populate later. Or there could be a charter flight that might show up. Way too early in china right now. Also, it's a Tuesday. Today is the way we will see some sort of an activity. USA time!

Me too. I currently have the S5 Al and I've been patiently waiting for a real Watch update to come along. I've also been wanting to switch to a stainless steel model but held off because the only watch faces I like are the Nike ones. But now that watchOS 9 allows any watch to have the Nike watch faces, I may finally bite the bullet and get an S8 Stainless Steel model.
I have mixed feeling about the Ultra. I like its feature set but I'm not an outdoor adventure type of person and I think it looks very ugly and big for everyday use.
anyone else not updating to iOS16 to experience it for the first time with the 14?
It was a typhoon! A bunch of us were affected. Team Typhoon 4 Life! They had to divert to Taiwan and Japan before making it stateside.

That's my guess. There will be nothing, then a bunch will pop up once things get moving.
I'm not an outdoor person either but AW Ultra looks very nice. It's premium yet sporty. By using different bands I will make sure it doesn't look too rugged. It will definitely be my daily watch. I wish Hermes AW would come in a Titanium Frame but the prices of it will go off the roof. So, I did get that's not possible.
I thought about that, after I installed the update 😂
Getting iOS 16 now though will help me pass the time until Friday.
Oh wow! thanks for sharing that. That's one heck of progress. What are the odds of going to Hong Kong and then Taiwan? Anything is possible. That's crazy!
I am pondering. I backed up my phone with 15.x. But it would be only to play with it
Wish I could say the same haha. Been on iOS 16 since beta 1 😆. Just have to count down the days til iPhone 14 pro!
