Another Apple Store wave, 3 day in a row, not big ones, but could be an option.
Today looks bigger than previous days.

I'm thinking anyone with positive Verizon experience got theirs and peaced out of following this thread.
Going back and re-reading or searching the thread for "Verizon" might be your best bet.

Thank you! Didn't realize I could just search this thread, never had to use that before, I usually keep up haha :p

ATT cancelled my order. Amazing. Wish they would tell you that you can't ship to a different address than Your billing address

Update:

1/18/17 Apple Online Store: Cancelled
1/19/17 BestBuy Online order: Backordered
1/31/17 Verizon: Cancelled by Verizon 2/1/17 but then shipped 2/20

Jamming on them right now. Thanks to iStockNow for the original email about Verizon stock.

Good luck everyone! I'll update whenever the BestBuy ones finally ship.

OK, I keep checking availability at the Central Florida Apple Stores. Every day they push back the expected date by a day. Does anyone know if it is a supply/demand issue, back ordered components or making changes to basic device?

iStockNow is showing a good amount of U.S. Apple Stores getting them in stock (better act fast though).

It seems to be that way at the moment. Per FEDEX, my Airpods are in town out for delivery so when I get home from work I can hopefully wrap them up and gift them to my wife.

I say order them now and get your shipping confirmation by lunch tomorrow. GO FOR IT!!! :)



UPDATE..... DELIVERED!!!!!!!!!.

As to Verizon experience, I ordered my first pair through Verizon and received them within 2 days.

I think the NSA is watching this thread and intercepting packages to get their AirPods early. Arghh!

Got my second ATT email from my order this morning with march ship dates, hopefully they actually ship tomorrow though!

Edit: my order from 11AM today is preparing to ship. Looks like ATT is sitting on a crap load of stock right now

It looks like there was a huge shipment wave to the US today. Most stores have long since been out of stock again though now. I saw over 100 stores had them in stock today. Crazy that everyone one of them is now out of stock again.

I don't know how at&t is doing it, but they're rocking it right now. Mine delivered today!

I just ordered mine since I'm unsure if Verizon is going to have stock any time soon. No nearby Apple Store or Best Buy has any. Let's hope they ship tomorrow!!
Thanks all for the tip

I am surprised this is still the state of affairs regarding these things. I would love to know how many of these things they have sold to get an idea of what the demand was.

Just woke up to a text alert saying my AirPods arrive today. (Ordered AT&T 9pm Tuesday 2/21)
I'm hoping I don't have to be home to sign for them, otherwise I may have to chase them down after work or wait for a 2nd delivery attempt with tomorrow's mail.

Same here. Just placed an order. I think they were showing as mid March a couple days ago.

I ordered last night and it was showing mid-march. People have been saying the orders are being filled quickly with AT&T. I'm hoping that's still the case. Anyone know if they ship 2 day?

I know AT&T is the hot commodity in getting these now, but my Best Buy order from 1/19 went from "Backordered" to "Preparing" with a "get it by" of March 3rd. So that's exciting!
