Fellow Ontario 12 Pro orderer here. 12 Pro 256GB in Pacific Blue, ordered at 8:05 when the store opened up for me, still shows "preparing to ship". Have not yet received an Apple Care+ Coverage email, however, I was billed for Apple Care+ with Tax on my credit card on the 17th. Saw the total order for the phone as pending, however now it doesn't show. The order still shows a Friday delivery, guess we will see what happens!

I'm pretty much in the same boat, extra pending AC+ charge too. My pending phone total is still present though

Still sitting on preparing to ship...
I wonder why we don’t get the same tracking like the USA anymore? I assume I’ll see tracking at the very latest on Thursday when they get to Louisville...
 
I just received another email for AppleCare+, since I got two iPhones.

But my iPhones still haven’t shipped yet!

No one cares about Canada. That’s why.
 
I got my invoice email this morning, which included a ship date of the 21st and a “shipped from” being the Apple distribution center in Elk Grove California

May be because they have switched to this.


OK so, I ordered maybe 2 mins after pre-orders opened. iPhone 12 Pro, 256 Graphite. Still on preparing to ship for my order. I have a feeling we'll get our tracking numbers at some point today, or tomorrow morning. Unless Apple is in fact shipping from stores, then it could even be Friday morning. Only time will tell!

I could see this going forward, as stores usually have stock, but doubt it's for the new release phones. Logistically it doesn't make sense to ship it to a store and then the customer. That's 2 shipping fees. It's always been that the new release ships directly from China

It depends, they are shipping pallets to the stores anyways. They might be including all the nearby orders as well for the stores to ship out.

Logistically it makes sense.
 
I am at least getting something on UPS now when I search by reference number and put phone number used for order..

" Order Processed: On its Way to UPS "

Edit:

Checked UPS app, see a package coming from Concord ON, CA, scheduled delivery end of day Friday.

Using my phone number as reference, it shows up now. It wasn’t yesterday. It says it’s on its way.
 
Anyone else doing in-store pick-up Friday? I am and my order still says processing. Is that normal?
 
Awesome to see; though there's still the note that "The delivery date will be updated when UPS takes possession of the package" ;)
