So after calling around to every place and deciding not to order from Apple cause of the long wait, I decided to order an ipad off of ebay. It took a couple of days to find a good deal since there is a lot of price gouging. Found the ipad with a buy it now and paid immediately. I sent a message asking if it could be sent priority mail instead of ups ground since it would be much faster getting to me. The seller said yes they could send it at the post office. They sent me the tracking number today and it looks like its been sent parcel post!:mad::rolleyes: I checked online and it looks like it can take 5 days all the way up to a few weeks for it to get here (instead of the 2-3 days priority!).:rolleyes::mad::mad::mad: I'm so mad! :(
 
He said yes he could send it at the post office. That doesn't imply he'll ship it priority.

He's probably already taking a hit. He isn't trying to dish out the money for priority shipping as well.
 
I just feel like if they have money to ship UPS ground then they have it to send priority. They know I wanted it faster!:rolleyes: They even insured it.:confused: If I had known this was going to happen I would've bought from someone else. They have very good feedback so I thought I was dealing with someone trustworthy.
 
Lol @ the title edit.

The seller probably made a mistake, especially if they're used to shipping via UPS.

At least you know it's on its way. Some people are still on waiting lists from weeks back. What's more is that you got it at a decent price.
