RECON1, is it scheduled for delivery tomorrow? UPS will not normally allow you to pick up a package until after one delivery attempt has been made. That is, unless you make previous arrangements with the shipper.

I stopped at UPS today (I had to drive right past going to Costco).. I was the only person there, so I did not feel like I was bothering them. The woman there told me, Yes, just go to MY UPS and change it from delivery to pick up and it will be here at 1pm to pick up. I came home and tried it.. and it failed, waited a bit, and it failed, tried from the app and it failed. Each time says "This action is not supported, please contact UPS. So I guess I will have to wait for delivery tomorrow. My personal issue is, that UPS could be here at 9pm or as late as 8pm. I have had to come let them in the office at 7:45 at night on a normal week day. So I may be stuck at work until delivery.. could be 3pm could be 8pm, I just don't know.

On a side note, my iPhone 7 (not plus) is in Seattle, so it's closer.. should be in Yakima in early AM..

I'm not seeing that 2 hour window option for these. Wonder if it has something to do with coming internationally.

Yes, she said we won't see that option for this item, it is "restricted by shipper" so it won't show up for anyone (if she is right).

I am just surprised I can't change it to a pick up at UPS, since I still have to show ID and sign. Oh well.. I just spent $300 at Costco for our Saturday BBQ at work, worse case I will grill a couple burgers or brats while waiting.

Dang really? I repent having this option for the original watch and Apple TV.

Credit card was charged two hours ago. Status changed to "preparing to ship". $10 expedited shipping charge (2-3 day delivery) charged 1 hour ago.

My guess (and only a guess) is that the option will be overused and everyone will pick a morning delivery and UPS would be overwhelmed and unable to delivery on time. Then everyone will demand $ back from UPS, be angry at them and Apple and the world would be Higgly and Piggly.

But I love when the world is Higgly and Piggly
