LOUISVILLE, KY, US 04/02/2010 8:58 A.M. SHIPMENT IS HELD TO VERIFY COMMODITY DESCRIPTION WITH THE CUSTOMER FOR CORRECT CLASSIFICATION / BROKERAGE RELEASED SHIPMENT. SHIPMENT IS SUBMITTED TO CLEARING AGENCY FOR FURTHER CLEARANCE

But, I did just get an e-mail that my iPad case shipped via DHL... and if it somehow shows up tomorrow instead of my iPad, I will laugh very hard and die a little inside at the same time, lol.
 
GOOD NEWS TO EVERYONE IN THE KOREAN SHIPMENT!

I just waited a long time and spoke with the manager at UPS call center and she said that all those packages have cleared customs, and are schedueled for delivery TOMORROW! She said they have had a few hundred calls about this shipment and it is a GURANTEED DELIVERY!:apple::D:apple:
 
Techdude! :rolleyes:

Mine is suppose to go to around the Lowell area. But has not changed status since the arrival in Louisville.

What do you think? Thanks Man
 
Sounds like James Cameron has a new 3D project in the pipeline.

I'll tell you what...if the iPad on the Korea Flight of Doom actually shows up tomorrow, I'm getting a T-Shirt made saying "I survived the Korea Flight of Doom". If you happen to see a 6'4", 260 lb. guy wearing that shirt, let me know you survived the Flight of Doom also. :D
 
Well UPS Flight #42 arrives here in Anchorage in 1 hour and 59 minutes from Kentucky, I guess a few hours after it lands I will see if my status changes to anything other than in transit Korea.
:rolleyes:


I hope so man, I am here also, waiting and being really bummed at the possibility of having to wait until Monday... I can SEE the UPS facility from my office window, and live less than a mile away...
 
Offline for awhile

Well I have to take out my wife and daughter and her husband to dinner so I will check back in a few hours.

keep the faith everyone...;)

That's great news for you guys! Someone around here has been saying something similar. ;)
 
My most recent scan history:

4/2/2010 9:32:00 AM AIR TRANSIT SCAN INCHEON, KR
4/2/2010 4:10:00 AM DEPARTURE SCAN GUANGZHOU, CN
3/31/2010 11:46:00 AM LOCATION SCAN GUANGZHOU, CN
3/31/2010 11:42:00 AM LOCATION SCAN GUANGZHOU, CN
3/29/2010 8:34:00 PM ORIGIN SCAN SHENZHEN, CN
3/29/2010 1:00:00 AM UPS INTERNAL ACTIVITY / UPS INTERNAL ACTIVITY LOUISVILLE, KY US
4/2/2010 10:27:00 PM BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED CN

I guess I am an Apple Kool-Aid drinker because I still believe that UPS will be delivering my iPad tomorrow as I was told when I pre ordered on day 1. Hopefully none of us will be dissapointed. In Steve we trust.

BTW Techdude thanks for all the help in talking people off the ledge in this thread. :)

Haha no problem :) Read my post above about my entire logic behind the Korea scans...

Great idea! It will help a lot of people and put them at ease :)

Looks like I'm SOL. After talking with UPS a minute ago, it sounds like if your status is still only showing "Billing Information Received" and nothing else-- your iPad has not shipped and will not be delivered tomorrow.

That is if you go by the PURE definition of that status - because that status DOES mean UPS does not have the package.

But even my package (and pretty much everyone else's) has had some sort of change / delay / mix up with their billing info scans.

I can only tell you that it may be an error, it may ship from KY when it gets scanned off a different pallet, or it may not update until it gets local.

If it doesn't come tomorrow I am sincerely sorry - did you get an email from Apple saying you don't have Saturday delivery?

Yikes a few hundred calls. Those poor customer service reps.

If they had just shipped it all via DHL we would be able to tell if someone was looking at your iPad funny during transit by the tracking info.

That's great except that other people have been told the opposite about this shipment. :)

I do appreciate the legwork, but it's been proven over and over that two people calling UPS with the same question will get two different answers every time. It's hard to place much faith at this point.

Yeah what really sucks is if it was on that flight that landed early this morning and was actually here on our ground within an arms reach and then left again...we should of tried to board that plane and find our ipads...LOL:D:D

AWESOME! that takes a lot of stress off. I hope it's true!

As I have said several times tonight, this also applies to you: A UPS flight from KSDF to Boston should leave around 4 AM. You should be on that flight :)

I'll tell you what...if the iPad on the Korea Flight of Doom actually shows up tomorrow, I'm getting a T-Shirt made saying "I survived the Korea Flight of Doom". If you happen to see a 6'4", 260 lb. guy wearing that shirt, let me know you survived the Flight of Doom also. :D

LMFAO! I would buy one just to have it xD

Or make one that says "I avoided the Korean Flight of Doom..." So if you see a 6' 160lb 17 year old wearing it, you will know :D

That's great news for you guys! Someone around here has been saying something similar. ;)

Haha aww shucks 0-_-0 you are making me blush again xD

TechDude, thanks for all your help. I didn't get an email-- and it's shipping to Center City Philadelphia... which surely has Saturday delivery.
 
Does anyone else still show their tracking in SHENZHEN, CN? Mine has been in exception there for over two days now???
 
ill believe the korean thing when i see my ipad tomorrow...i am furious at UPS...sorry for saying it a thousand times and i thank techdude because he has been very helpful
