Ordered my 12.9" 1TB space grey iPad for local pickup at my Apple Store this morning at 8AM local time after I woke up. **** waiting until June/July! :)
 
1TB Space Grey Cellular was in stock at local Apple store around 5:30 mountain. Cancelled CDW and Apple launch day order with 6/9-6/23 delivery. Roflmao I like to hedge my bets.

CDW rep I spoke with said she wasn’t sure when my order was supposed to ship. I think the CDW reps have no clue what’s going on and just make **** up.

I spoke to multiple people and no one truly confirmed when my order would ship. I got a lot of “should”. Also irked me webpage when I bought stated Thursday 5/20 delivery, paid EXTRA for expedited shipping and they didn’t deliver... LITERALLY.

after all, these guys just suck. and I've been charged twice on my credit card because somehow the discount wasn't applied initially when I was placing the order and the rep just charged the whole amount again. those holds are not falling off still, wondering when they'll be restored. ugh :/
 
CDW chat support said mine is “supposed” to ship out today. Even gave me a UPS tracking number that will ”go live tomorrow,” he said. Sounds legit. We shall see.

Same here they charged me twice and the holds are past the 48 hrs they said. I ended up getting a 1TB Cellular from my local Apple store but I need them to release my funds.

Are you gonna call them up to figure out when the funds will be released? Not sure if I should just stay put and wait
 
Got mine - 1 TB 12.9 Pro - picked up a Pencil 2 and a Magic Keyboard. If I like the keyboard I’ll cancel the Brydge Max+ I have on pre-order.

I’m definitely gonna call this evening. I won’t press it too hard because I know the hold will eventually fall off. It’s crazy that I had a Best Buy preorder that I cancelled earlier in the week and the hold disappeared in like 2hrs. Everything CDW has told me has not been accurate from the stock to the shipping to the double charge and the holds.
 
I know CDW has upset some, but my 12.9 shipped today with delivery next week. Beats the June 23-July 8 estimated delivery from the Apple order I canceled.
 
Has anyone bought one of these in-store after launch? Availability seems tight.
Your best best if you have an Apple store near you is to check online stock around 6am your local time. I've seen a few configurations available pop up in the mornings, but a lot more 11" than 12.9" Pros.
 
There are a bunch of Apple Stores in NYC, Boston and other major cities that seem to have 12.9" in stock for pickup today. Sadly Seattle didn't seem to receive anything this morning.

I ordered my 512GB WiFi 12.9 last Tuesday and picked it up on Wednesday at the Seattle U Village store. I lucked out.

Yeah, I saw them pop up last week. I'm guessing tomorrow will see a batch but fingers crossed. I'm looking for 256GB with Cellular. Even more weird is Spokane just had a bunch of 12.9's pop up in the last 10 minutes.
