I have no doubt I'll be charged but I am interested to know what happens if those payments fail... when the product has been delivered.
Got a tip for us?

Pretty cheap in my opinion. Looking at other good Bluetooth earphones, from the likes of Beats and Bang and Olufsen, and AirPods are cheaper!
Also regarding the dollar parity - it's not as bad as it seems. Take off the 20% VAT that is included and it's just under $164 dollars here, compared to their $159 pre-tax price (unless I've totally messed up the maths).
I'm sure there is a system in place to prevent them from getting your payment. They would have already checked your account and probably initiated the process and the bank is probably obliged to release payments which they will in turn deal with the customer to get back.
I believe the transaction still goes through even if you've maxed out your overdraft, so you will just get beef from the bank - Apple will still get their money.
I've had it up all day, but just now when I pressed refresh it disappeared! Did yours disappear quite close to delivery? I was at 92 out of 98 when I last checked.

Gotta love how these things sync
Even easier, if you use the sound icon in the menu bar:
Mine have just turned up. Absolutely love them. The range is also excellent - paired with an iPhone 5s.

Well I'm reluctantly coming to the conclusion that I won't be getting mine today given that they've been sitting in DPD's Southwark depot "ready for delivery" since 5.45am today. Delivery is to a business address so if they don't start moving soon then I'm guessing it ain't gonna happen...
Probably too late to say now but DPD have a good app.
As well as detailed tracking info and a driver location map. It allows you to keep track of previous deliveries and when they came.
So if you buy more Apple stuff next year, you'll remember when it arrived!

Between 14:21 and 15:21... I was planning on going out at half three, so almost guaranteed now they'll be late
...typical

I wasn't actually using them, was showing it to prove how simple it is to connect to them
I've plugged mine in and it doesn't show the case as charging? Do I have a faulty case? Anyone else seen this?
I don't have this issue. BTW I have connected it to my iPhone charger, and the case and AirPods both charge at the same time.
