Interesting, I just got an email from UPS My Choice that the Best Buy shipment is due to arrive Wednesday via SurePost (where they hand it off to USPS for the last mile). Logging in gives me the option to "Upgrade to UPS Ground and your package may be eligible for delivery changes and could arrive a day earlier." With them yet to report the package in hand at this hour, I'm just going to leave it alone rather than pay $7.99 just to get it on Wednesday anyway.
Did your Best Buy order say shipped already? Or is it saying getting it ready still? Also where are you located?

Just right now, I received an email from Apple that my silver will arrived on 23rd, originally 29th. I has an engraving option. To be shipped by UPS coming from China. Status is awaiting final release.

I hear you about that extra day; I've definitely seen that here. I figured at this hour it wouldn't be delivered today, but the CC option may be the way to go. I'll give it a shot, what's the worst that can happen?

It does say Shipped, and Arriving by December 24. I'm in Ohio, as is the origin, 2.5 hours away.

Arrived! (UK) Can’t believe it. Thank goodness I didn’t silence my phone and got the delivery window text.

Back to bed now, wasn’t home from work until 0230. Too tired to open and enjoy right now zzz

It’d get them out and put them on charge, but I expect they’ll be at about 80%+ anyway (edit: they were at 68%), get the impression they’re hot from the factory.

Shipped notification for an order in Canada at 10:05 PM. Says 17th delivery, though I guess it’s possible I get them tomorrow. Tracking takes me to FedEx without any info about the shipment. Have received everything else this year via UPS, so hopefully they’re okay.

Apple says mine is set to arrive Tuesday but FedEx is saying Thursday. Waiting for it to say something about arriving at the destination sort facility. Hopefully by 6 or 7.

They arrived. First impressions: They look awesome. Can connect to my Mac with Catalina. Noise canceling impressive, their sound, too. Directly compared to the XM3s they are much clearer and the soundstage is wider. The bass is impressive and not so muddy than in the XM3s.

Fedex tells me that Scheduled delivery is Thursday here in PA, but it also shows that the package is on a vehicle for delivery. So I gather that the holiday delivery schedule is blowing some transistors in FeDex's big brain.

best buy order just changed from "Ships tomorrow" to "We'll let you know when it ships"
Depending on where you are, this could mean that they will use a same-day delivery service and ship from a local store. I’ve Had this happen for other preorders in the past.
