Official waiting up for Apple Watch pre-orders pajama party thread!

[jdlumagbas]

Amazing how waiting 2 minutes before pulling the trigger can change things! Now my wife's space gray aluminum and my stainless steel is shipping in 4-6 weeks! oh well...

Anybody else get prompted to enter billing address, shipping address, phone, and email when trying to pay with apple pay? I could have sworn that was all in this afternoon when I checked. Maybe because I never used the store app before? Cost me a few weeks in delivery I guess. 5/13 instead of 4/24!

No, I made sure everything was updated a few days ago.

Folks, just a bit of advice...just because YOU think you got in "before" a lot of people, or you feel you were there "early" doesn't mean squat. MILLIONS of people are pre-ordering these things...people were actively refreshing the store page in some fashion just like you, and honestly, it's a crap shoot just like the iPhone pre-orders always are...you get in where you get in.

I already see the same "Apple sucks!" hate posts because of the shipping dates. Try to use some sense people...TRY to realize that if you get your watch the day after launch the world wills till be spinning and you'll be just fine.

Entitlement is a hell of a thing lately.

42mm Stainless with Classic Buckle STILL shipping 4/24-5/8 in the U.S., seriously, consider the classic buckle band and you'll get in on launch day most likely. Use the App... use Apple Pay!

Hey, it could be worse. I really hope you get it sooner. :yes:

Keep trying. It took me three attempts before I got the email confirmation.

Thanks for the info. Microsoft/hotmail put the confirmation email in my spam folder.

Also, some appointments that appeared to have failed have been going thru. Check your appointments at concierge.apple dot com.

Very nicely put.

I used apple pay and i didn't get prompted but i wish i had.... for some reason, it is billing it and shipping it to my work instead of the home address i actually i have on file... I don't understand how it got the work address? I have to call them tomorrow to make sure they don't screw it up...

its been a long night with you apple folks, ti,e to squeeze in some sleep and wake up just in time for my try-on appointment,*bliss* can't afford a pre-order just yet. good night or good morning folks.

Thanks, Big. I thought I had too this afternoon. In the app itself, or so I thought. Could it be due to using apple pay for the first time in the app? Maybe even on the phone as I needed to get a replacement for 6+. Weird. Kind of bummed. Thought I was super prepared... Should hold your spot in the queue if you are entering payment info etc. That's how ticketmaster works.

 

[johnraggio]

Yea. I had three and thought I had none

Off to bed ...

Really enjoyed the pajama party -- 'specially the pillow fight and TPing that cute neighbor's house ...

Thx Rene!

Went through with apple pay pretty well through phone app. Bummed that the space grey sport is 4-6 weeks out but excited that it let me order all four though the apple store app on my phone (got one for all four peeps in my familia

True, true. My apple pay prompted me for all sorts of info. You think my shipping time slipped then, or was my spot kind of already set? Hard to say, I guess. I ordered at like 3:03 and have a 5/13 date for 42 gray sport ;-(

 

[Quackinup]

Looking through the Stainless most are showing 4-6 weeks, but there are still a few combinations showing 4/24-5/8

 

[tigerinexile]

I find it interesting that the Milanese Loops were plentiful for Canada (stayed at. 4/24-5/8 for awhile after I ordered), whereas the Leather Loops were not (4-6 weeks to start).

Wonder if that's a production thing, a guess at demand thing, or what they thought is better?
