Mobile seems the be the best way. Kept disappearing from my bag on desktop.

Got through for a 12.9”. Space Grey, 256GB with Cellular. Education pricing.

May 21-27 delivery
 
Kept adding to bag, kept disappearing. Almost made it to checkout a few times, then it kept disappearing. Initially said 25 May to 29 May or something like that (seems to be the earliest for Canada), but when I finally placed the order, it says 3 June - 9 June. Hmm. So I'll possibly receive it right on WWDC day.
 
Anyone see their orders in their account? I got the email but don’t see it in my Apple account.
 
Whew and done, confo emails 08:06AM EST

I really think it’s better to take the store down and then open it up at order time. This was just a frustrating process with all the errors.
 
I managed to order a 256 silver 12.9. I wanted a space gray initially but those kept disappearing from my bag. Oh well- I’m sure I’ll enjoy it no matter what color the back of it is. Delivers May 21-28. This was my first preorder of anything Apple 🎉
 
if we got confirmation+money taken from Apple Card, plus estimated shipping 5/21, does that mean we got it?
 
Disaster. Kept being removed from bag or not available messages. Finally got through the order and it pushed shipping back to Jun 2 - Jun9 for Space Gray 12.9 2GB Cell. Really pissed since if it was in first batch I would have had it before leaving on a long trip.

Completely ridiculous process, honestly. First of all they should have been clear about the time… 1TB 12.9” Cellular disappeared from my cart so many times that by the time I could check out the shipment window had slipped to June 9-23. Went back and got a WiFi only because that still had the launch window.
 
Were any Canadians able to get a May 21 iPad Pro 12.9"? I refreshed a million times on both the iPhone app and the website on my Mac and it was only available to me once it hit May 27. Weird.
 
Finally got the Space Grey 1tb, wifi only with an estimated delivery window May 21 - May 28 by Standard Delivery through the education store. similar issues to everyone else, kept adding to bag and disappearing. also ordered the magic keyboard through a whole separate transaction with the same delivery window.

Veterans discount worked fine, took a while to get it into cart. But all is good

12.9 cellular, delivers 28th May, plus a white MKB (I might regret this).

Also ordered an iPad Air 4 for note taking and kicking around the house as my broadband provider was practically giving them away with a cheap data plan.

11 iPP going on eBay when I get home, along with my old 13” MBP and my partner‘s 7th gen.

What the hell, its not like we‘re getting a holiday anytime soon…
