21 days since I ordered (July 5) and still hasn't been charged and still in processing. Hoping that I'll see some movement tomorrow when the "business days" resume. I just spoke to an Apple Specialist to make sure everything was okay on my end, and they confirmed that there's no issue and then gave me a basic response: "So based on the delivery time, you could be charged as early as July 31st or as late as August 5th. So I would expect to be charged within that time frame" — I'm taking this response with a grain of salt, understanding they gave me a diplomatic answer based on the information I already have.

In conclusion, I'm still anxiously waiting and refreshing.
Strange. I believe @KDCal ordered the same day as me (July 6), and today he got Movement on his order from "Processing" to "Preparing to Ship". I'm from the US and I ordered at around 9PM, so maybe that's why I haven't been moved to "Preparing to Ship" As for you, @Sejken It's strange that you haven't been charged yet or gotten to "Preparing to Ship". I guess we're in the same boat, except I've been charged already. We are both on Processing.

He is a she, btw ? and I’m sure tomorrow yours will change to preparing to ship. I did place my order SUPER early in the morning on the 6th. Fingers crossed that by the end of next week we ALL have tracking numbers!

Fingers crossed! That would be amazing. @DiamondarBoss - I’m in the US too and I placed my order late on July 5, so I’m hoping the reason I haven’t seen anything update has something to do with my credit card and with it being the weekend. As you said, we all seem to be in the same boat—furiously waiting for any change in status. I hope we all get our iPads on or before the 5th!

Maybe when you have the iPad on the MK you might find it better. I just got the 11” MK yesterday and I think it is awesome. Maybe I am more impressed with the advancement in these things given I had a few ipad keyboards in the past years and this by far is superior. As you said “Still miles better than the weird smart keyboard cover” ?

I absolutely love my MK for my 11” pro as well. Haven’t regretted the purchase for a minute.

I ordered a 12.9” on July 7 with an arrival date of Aug 6-13. My credit card was charged today and the status changed to “preparing to ship”. The arrival dates are still the same, though. It’ll probably arrive sometime next week ?

Cool! My pencil is supposed to be here within the same date range as your iPad. Haven’t seen a charge on my card for it, but here’s to hoping. ?

No movement on July 3rd iPad Pro 11” seems like the 11’s maybe more delayed than the 12.9”...
Yeah, that's Probably what's going on.

Wow, I think you've hit the nail on the head. I agree, that's the most likely explanation.
Yes, I also think that is the Most likely explanation.

Could it be that I could have my iPad ship soon? I think they manufacture the iPad normally, then run it through the Laser machine to get engraved. If it got Engraved on the 25th, it should be Shipping soon!

ordered IPP 11" 128gb on 10th july
got the airpods delivered 14th july
apple pencil 2 just changed to preparing to ship (engraved), estimated was 27 July - 8 aug
IPP still processing, estimated is 7 - 15 aug
The 11 Inch iPad Pros are taking Longer than the 12.9" iPad Pros. Expect to see something change 20-25 days after you order. I ordered mine July 6, got Charged on the 25th and I am still in "Processing". @iThink Apple , the person who created this Thread, ordered his July 3, and Has not been Charged and has not been moved on from "Processing"

Ordered IPP 11” WiFi SG evening of July 10, still processing
AmEx has not been charged
Arrives August 11-18

Oh well, I have the smart folio for it that I can stare at until it arrives. :rolleyes:

Ordered and received 12” IPP from Walmart last week, but I’m sending it back because it’s too big and heavy after a case has been put on. It’s a beautiful slab of tech though.
