lmao you are the one that asked the question? I never challenged that notion, of course everyone has a different take on things. This is mine.

Sounds like you maybe have buyer's remorse.

Not at all. I’ve always gotten the maximum configuration on any phone or computer.

Doesnt matter. If you got a delivery date of 9/21 then that’s when you’ll have it. I’m not going to keep checking. Even if it’s saying preparing for shipment it won’t come any sooner than for those of us who see processing.

You’re ruining the fun

It’s like the saying ‘a watched pot never boils’. Of course it does boil but watching it makes the time seem to pass more slowly than if you walked away and checked back a bit later. Same with checking status. Just make it seem like a longer wait.

Yes but this is a yearly tradition to some and this is something some of do as part of the experience

Current status of my order, since Im picking it up in store, it doesnt look like I'll get a "Shipping" notice.
