I just got the email! So my 42mm sport gray/black with confirmation at 12:08 just shipped. Delivery is expected on Monday. Cody, I hope you've got that email too.
my "confirmation email" of order at :08 on 4/10 is the ONLY EMAIL i have received.
i did look today iPhone today and noticed that the card i use for apple pay, the card that i used to purchase both apple watches, showed a "Declined" next to appleonlinestoreus. somehow i saw this 13 minutes after may Bank of America credit card declined this. I tried calling BOFA and got disconnected twice before they could fix it. I have never been late on a payment and have always paid my balance in full each month. I have excellent credit and do not understand why BofA would have do this.
I ended up just switching the "method of payment" on apples order status page to my debit card and everything looks good now.
the status now says "Preparing for Shipment!".
there still may be hope for me.
Thanks, Cody
