Best Buy Pre Order for Series 4 Apple Watch?

Well fellas I went to my local BB and picked up my SG Cellular sport(not the sport loop I originally ordered) and canceled my original order for SG gps sport loop. Oh well in the back of my head I wondered if I should just say what the heck and get the cellular like my series 3. Glad I looked on bb in the am for my local store and saw it. They told me they only had 5 including mine and the others went as soon as doors opened.
 
Still waiting on pickup for 2 44mm silver, sport band, GPS.

Chat is giving me some BS saga, basically saying that I wont be able to pick it up today...

Now im irritated!
 
Had to order the wife’s Gold aluminum with SB from a different local BBY that had them in stock.

Still no movement on my SBSS with SB that was ordered right when orders went live.
 
Crazy that people with orders put in days after I put mine in are getting movement and I’m still stuck with no movement other than the pre-order switching over to order received.
 
So BestBuy just shipped mine. Using UPS next day air. BestBuy has an estimated Monday but since it's UPS next day air would it arrive tomorrow?
 
"We're sorry – your ordered item(s) are taking longer to fulfill than we anticipated.

Please be assured we'll continue to work on this order, and once the item(s) become available we will let you know. If we are not able to complete your order by October 21, 2018, we will notify you and cancel the item(s). "

I'm wondering the same. They just picked mind up for next day air with delivery scheduled for Monday too. Google says that Saturday delivery for UPS has to be requested by the shipper, whereas FedEx includes Saturday in its regular delivery schedule. Anyone know how true that is?
 
So my 44 Silver Sport Band GPS apparently will not be making it on time for in store pick up today. My order date was 09/14 at 5AM PST. I just got this email from BB tonight:

I tried on a series 4 in store with the sport loop. I was sort of disappointed with the sport loop. It's my first watch. It's kind of cheaply made in my opinion. I will just have to buy more bands I guess.

I ship stuff out daily for work using both UPS and FedEx. Both couriers will only deliver on Saturday if requested by the shipper. Otherwise they will deliver next business day.

Around 3:30 am launch night I ordered a Milanese from BB right after noticing the Sport Band SS on Apple’s site were showing Oct 5-12th delivery. I initially tried ordering a white sport band SS on BB’s site, but it wasn’t available. I kept trying and around 3:40 am it was finally available for pre order, so I ordered one of those as well. Fast forward to today, the SB SS shipped today and the Milanese is still processing.

The Milanese shipped this evening. The Sport Band now shows delivery for Monday via UPS. The situation is less than ideal, but I’m happy to have a watch by Monday. I canceled my Oct 5 - 12th order with Apple.
 
Mine moved into shipped! But it's UPS not USPS so I won't get it till Monday as I feared. Oh well.
 
The tracking number in the FedEx app is now telling me the package will arrive tonight by 11pm!

However I still track through their website, it still shows tomorrow.

Hmmm....

The sport loop has it's issues. I tried on the 40 mm and it still does not fit over my hand and with the captive loop design it's useless to me. I'm glad I just went with the plastic sport band. At least that will fit my wrist.
 
This really pmo, why say pick up on release day and then this??

I ended up cancelling my SG aluminum with the sports loop. Tried to order for pickup today and after the order it switched to next Friday. Switched it to delivery this afternoon and it has shipped already. It says I’ll have it Wednesday and my wife’s will be here Tuesday.
