The hold has now been lifted and the tracking updated to processed at East Midlands which means it is now queued and routed to move on the next truck. In my case it will go to Heathrow sort centre next. I don't expect it to head that way until 10pm or so but it could move on the later 4am-ish run
Mine says processed at East Midlands but also says in status ready for collection which is weird.

Yes pending for both lenses and headset, plus Apple double charged me for the lenses so waiting for a refund.

It’s still “processing” for me, usually for other pre orders it will change to “ready for pick-up” a day or two before.
I am now pending only for the AVP. The lens charge has completely disappeared despite having received them.

You should check with them if they’re allowed to hand over the parcel at their depot or whether or not a delivery attempt needs to be made to the address listed on the purchase invoice. In Canada, UPS won’t allow depot pickup before a delivery attempt is made to the shipping address on file. It’s a fraud prevention rule.

I had things in East Midlands, then it goes on a second run usually and here in the evening
It’s very gracious of Apple to mandate that couriers hold on to them until the 12th, because we wouldn’t want anybody getting a product that’s been widely available for over 6 months any earlier lol

Yeah I have found this very frustrating this week. After the initial launch they should just ship/get delivered as soon as they’re available

Apple has been holding our Canadian AVPs at the Louisville KY UPS depot since July 3rd lol. They finally moved just about 2 hours ago.

I assume I can still go and pick mine up at an earlier slot, right? Mine is at 12:30pm but I am planning to go around 9am. I’ve never had issues showing up early for my pre-order pickups.

LETS GOOOOO haha, man I’ve been awake since 5am and can’t get back to sleep! This is basically xmas for adults… gonna head to DHL in an hour and pray everything’s ready :)
Not making it a competition, but I was up just before 4am 😄. Tried to go back to sleep but gave up and hit YouTube for Vision Pro videos.

Good luck! The Carpark for the shopping centre is 24 hours, so I’ll probably get there about 7am and wait impatiently.

See you on the other/inside

Just had my demo at Reading store. It is rather special. Just sat outside have a coffee and working through a discussion flow for when I arrive home with it😀. Also what size storage are people getting?

My pickup is for mid-day tomorrow from a London store, do you think if I turned up today I’d be turned away or could I get lucky to get mine early? I’ve already had a go using one before so I wouldn’t need a set up/ tutorial… I just can’t wait another day o_O
