My ups page doesn't even have an estimated delivery date?????

It did have but since the exception we all had I've got no date anymore

Me too, but the Apple store still has 28th estimate right?

I can see the airs being UK early tomorrow morning, whether they get on vans or not is another story. Still Thursdays ok.

Edit: Cologne baby!!! Impulsive you gotta be hitting up refresh! Maybe deliveries tomorrow, a day behind the States??!

I ordered it around 7pm on Oct 22nd and the order updated with a tracking number last night. Only update is that it was picked up in Shanghai. Estimated delivery date is the 28th. Hope that helps

What model did you order? I just called 1-800-Apple with no luck. They're sticking to the delivery date on the original order although I since added expedited shipping and the delivery date hasn't changed. I hate to cancel and start all over again....checked my local store - only the 4 basic models.

I'm telling you guys, those airs will be in UK after midnight, it's up to UPS to get them the final mile on delivery.

Ireland doesn't make sense (compared to Kazakhstan!) just a billing address or company contact.

Here is what my order looks like right now (2:24PDT Oct 26). Today is technically the 2nd business day, and tomorrow will be the 3rd business day, so if Apple is on time with this it should be shipped out by tomorrow evening. Here is the order:

Oh yeah?

You watch. These babies are going to fly flight right over our heads as we sleep tonight, and we'll wake to find that they're sitting on the tarmac in Dublin.

What kind of company/discount? Like an education discount? Of course if you don't mind telling :)
Click to expand...

the standard employee discount....I believe Apple offers discounts to certain corporations. Came out cheaper than using a student discount.

OMG thank you OP. Just called in an Apple Store by my house, first one didn't. Called the second one a few minutes further and they said they have all models with 4GB RAM. I asked if I had to pay a restocking fee, was told no. Going to go exchange. Don't _need_ it, but doesn't hurt for an extra 90$ (student discount)!

Question, if I am exchanging, do I reinstall the OS? How do I give it back? Like wiping my info?
Thanks.

No, that's still in China, or actually has left China, but has not arrived in Germany.

If it's anything like ours, it's going to stop in Korea, Kazakhstan and Poland before it arrives in Cologne.

Student is 10%. The standard employee discount is 10%.

Employees also are given a certain number of 15% discounts a year, and one 25% a year.

Called my Apple stores (all 6 of them in town), and one of them claimed to have one in stock. Will head over in a bit. I'm a bit skeptical though because the guy instantly answered "yeah we have that one" without even checking. He seemed pretty serious though.
