My black band with silver pin has just shipped but been email-of-deathed on my white band. Which is fine, I managed to bag a an extra white band for £45 from CEX! :p

My black sports band has changed from a generic delivery of May - it is now showing 27th May - 1st June and I've received an email saying I'll see it in 2-3 weeks.

Yes! Mine just shipped via UPS despite the estimated delivery dates having been pushed back on my order (if the band comes tomorrow, it'll still be in the original window).

edit: however, my shipping estimate on the Apple Store says "delivers" on Monday. Hopefully it will arrive faster than that.

I have just received the email-of-death on my White sports band.

I had another try-on session today with the link bracelet and persuaded Solihull Apple Store to adjust it to fit my wrist. With a proper fit I liked it, so I have just ordered a 42mm link bracelet as well.

(I still like my launch-day Classic Buckle strap on my 42mm SS but some other bands will be nice.)

Ordered a 42mm Milanese Loop on 25th April. Still just says dispatched June. Any chance I will be able to pick one up from a CEX shop?

You can order online.
I ordered a Black Sports strap on monday from them. It arrived by recorded delivery today with all 3 parts - s/m & M/l. It looks brand new.

Very pleased.
Apple order cancelled.

CEX deal in "second hand goods". Note the inverted commas. They rely on customers trading in items whether they are truly second hand or actually brand new unwanted items. Therefore their stock levels and availability of products varies from store to store and with time.
