Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

I am one of the lucky ones to get a Graphite SS delivered for launch day. I feel for those who have to wait. At least when you order now, you still get a date for delivery. It’s a lot easier to get the watch. I have been looking for weeks for PS5 for my son. I still can’t find one at cost and there is no way I would pay double to get it.
they are still having shortage with Ps5 orders? I thought that’s old new and Sony was all caught up. What in the world is going on in this world?
 
At last I can relax a bit my order is now on the move to the U.K. just checked UPS app and m y Apple Watch is on its way!

Apple’s handling delivery dates is awful. Who was saying Apple has a good costumer service?! Not telling the actual date of delivery at purchase time (which is the same as changing the date in this case) is one of the worst kinds of costumer services!

Not surprised with the Apple Watch this year. Someone fell asleep or did not care at Apple campus. Sadly, Apple Dropped the ball this year but not to worry. They still provide world-class service. I’m sure next year it’s not going to be like this. Just hang tight! 🍎
 
I don’t think Apple employees get to apply for the discount on new products right away. So, idk how that’s going to work out.

Hopefully tomorrow Apple store nearby you has the stock available so you can place your order in right away :)

Smh, ur still trying to be slick. It’s not going to work. I’ll see you when you flex on us hard with that iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB🤗

I agree with you. I have a feeling black and silver is going to be the flagship model. I just hope Apple introduces a deeper shade of black in 💻
Employees can do it straight away. 😉🤫😂

With these shortages, I’m not liking my chances. 😎😂

I’m already flexing with 3 genuine apple iPhones cases. 😜😂

Reckon we’ll get over having a different colored MacBook Pro, might be a good thing if they keep the pro line up at silver and space grey, maybe we’ll get different shades of space grey and silver 😲👌
 
Yeah you sign up to the UPS my choice service. They send you a letter to the address you register with a pin code. You enter that into the app to activate the address. It then works similar to the DPD app and lets you see tracking info before Apple tell you it’s shipped.
Very nice. I wonder if UK folks are aware of it. They always said they can’t track anything whenever Apple ships the product.

Ur right! 128GB iPhone and 3 genuine Apple iPhone cases🥴

Sierra blue 💻 would be very nice!

It’s common for Apple to ship the Apple Watch direct from China. I got the UPS tip from this forum a few years ago. Sadly it’s not something you can set up instantly. You have to wait for them to post out the code. I only use it for the Apple Watch as most other Apple products I buy ship via DPD. Hopefully it will help other U.K. peeps in future years if they sign up now.

I’ve bought other things during last year. This problem only happens with Apple. I don’t think any other company sells something and changes the delivery date after.
buying PS5 was hard and it is still. But once you order it, you get exactly at the same day that is told at purchase time. It should be the same with other companies as well. It is about respecting costumers, which Apple is failing.

You may want to spread the secret and help out the UK folks. They are very chatty and fun people. Get them started for iPhone 14 and Apple Watch 8 ;) @Jinjin

I’m expecting us to get extra spoilt this time, since it’s the last event of the year. 🥳🎉🎈

You better make it rain Timmy Boy. 🤨
He’s about to get SUPER RICH. September, October and November + December is all payout months for him. Pretty sure he’s got way too many 0’s under his account balance.

The chip shortages has been terrible here as well. 🇦🇺🦘 Apple products have been pretty decent, everything else from electronics to cars, you could be waiting a very long time.

Some cars are taking up to 6-12 month to get delivered lol, that’s with placing your order early as well. 🤦‍♂️😂

Dumb question! Do you guys have Tesla in Australia? What’s a most popular car brand people usually prefer there?

With TNT it was continuous updates like UPS for you guys.

Haven't had anything Apple delivered by DHL before but hopefully it actually updates in real time.
Very nice! Keep us posted. Once you get your watch delivered don’t forget to update what it actually shows. 1 more day left for you. Congratulations again 🥂 🍻 cheers!
