Received shipping confirmation on mine yesterday. Still "ready for UPS". Nothing to indicate if it's actually shipped or where it's shipping from.

For some reason, the SIM card is still "processing", so looks like that will be shipping separately and arriving god knows when!

I'm thinking that it's possible that some wont actually be in the hands of UPS until thursday because mine is being shipped via UPS Express Saver which is a next business day by noon service.

Mar 13th, 2012, 08:22 PM
Yep....Express Saver here, too. So assuming it's in a warehouse in Canada, Friday should be the day! Would also explain why people have been told that the tracking won't be available until the 15th (which would be the day it will actually ship).

Ordered 64GB black iPad on the first day of pre-order. Today I received a notice from UPS that they have received a shipping label from Apple. I won't be the first to receive my "new iPad" because the UPS delivery person religiously shows up near 6:00pm during the week.

Now, my smart cover is coming via FedEx. On their tracking page it said delivered by 6:00pm March 13. Well, the time came and went, still no smart cover. Now their tracking page doesn't show an estimated delivery date...

I pre-ordered three iPads (different orders), all on March 8th. They are all listed as "Processing", which hasn't changed since I ordered them, with an "Available" date of March 19, and "Delivers" date of March 21.

Since the orders haven't progressed from "Processing" at all, I am beginning to doubt that I will receive them on March 21. I am thinking of canceling the orders and lining up instead. Kinda annoyed.

I got my cover yesterday but the Fedex tracking system said it spent two days being cleared by customs? How is it our stuff goes through customs when ordering from Apple.ca? The shipping label on the package said Mississauga, Ont as the originating location.

For those of you that have tracking other than the widely seen "Ready for UPS", did you order with engraving? One theory is that the engraved units are coming from CHina bot non-engraved are in a warehouse somewhere in North America.

My status for my 64 GB wifi black non-engraved is at the "Ready for UPS" on the UPS site.

I see that the theory was also mentioned in the poll thread of which iPad did you order. I only mentioned it here since anyone stating their status may want to include whether they ordered with engraving so we can confirm the pattern.

Even if your order doesn't ship until friday I would believe you would still have it by the 21st as the shipping tends to be pretty fast and that would give 5 days for it to get to you, which in my experience is more than enough.

I ordered mine as soon as the store came back up after the announcement. I did order engraving. It came from China and made it as far as Anchorage on the 9th. Tracking stopped at that point.

Another tidbit...

Apple offers guides to iPad delivery dates for orders in Canada. (http://store.apple.com/ca/browse/overlay/ipad/shipping)

If your delivery quote reads “Delivers: March 16-March 20”, then your new iPad will deliver on March 16 in major cities and surrounding areas (zone 1). Otherwise, if you live in zone 2, your estimated delivery date is March 19, and if you live in zone 3 your estimated delivery date is March 20. Please add 1-2 additional business days for delivery of personalized products or for zones 4 or 5.

Unless tracking has improved greatly, the status is usually wrong. If you looked at the forum traffic for release day 2010, iPads were everywhere; China, Alaska, Tennessee, back to Alaska, Ontario, Tennessee again... I was heading out to supper after giving up on getting my iPad when they called to give me a heads up it was leaving the Ottawa airport on a truck in 5 minutes. It was in my hands less than half an hour later. That was 8pm and I was one the first late deliveries they were trying to complete that day.

I do not think they accept delivery location changes for these orders and make one delivery attempt to the listed address. Also there is a do not drop off on this as well, so it'll end up at the warehouse if there is no one to receive it.

I'm having the same UPS confusion as others here... Destination Scan in Concord last night at 8:44 PM with a scheduled delivery update at that time of today by noon; this morning nothing has changed except the scheduled delivery has reverted to unknown.

Ironically, my Apple TV, which was on the same order but shipped separately, is out for delivery from the same Concord location, but it has a Destination Scan of 4:38 PM yesterday. It's shipped via UPS Standard, however, so the delivery estimate on that one is by 5:00 PM today.

I'm wondering if the iPad missed some kind of arbitrary cut-off last night by being scanned later. I do find it ironic, however, that everybody outside of Toronto seems to have theirs out for delivery. Is anybody in Toronto proper, or even the extended GTA seeing this?

On the other hand, it's possible it's on the truck and UPS just didn't scan it this morning. It wouldn't be the first time... Last June I ordered a MacBook Air that didn't get scanned AT ALL (i.e. there was no record of it having even been received by UPS) until it showed up at my door and I signed for it. Even looking back at it now the only tracking status on it is "Delivered." :)

You can get them free at whoever you get your cell pan from. Once they get an activation they don't really care about the $10.

I didn't order mine until late on unveiling day (9pm or something) - surprisingly, the order went through very quickly and easily.

gonna be alot of ticked off ppl , wonder if there is the option of driving all the way up to Concord to pick it up?

jhollington
Mar 16th, 2012, 11:38 AM
Sadly, no... UPS' standard policy (which I'm told applies in this case as well) is that they don't allow pickups until the first delivery attempt has failed. After that, you have to notify them that you want to pick it up, and it takes 24 hours before it's available for pickup -- so basically you have to choose between a second delivery attempt or a pickup.

FedEx, yes. I've never had a problem with them. Always reliable status tracking and on-time delivery. Plus, the depot is only about a km from where I live and they allow same-day pickup for missed deliveries.

Canada Post used to be reasonably reliable, but since last summer's labour disruption, I've had at least three situations where they've lost letters completely.

As for Purolator, they've been worse than UPS in terms of reliably delivering to buildings. Their official policy is "no buzz code, no delivery" and of course shippers don't always provide the ability to put a buzz code on a package.

Mine still just shows "Destination Scan" at 8:09 last night and yet it was delivered a couple of minutes ago! Haven't even opened the box yet :)
It wouldn't surprise me if this is the case as well -- it's entirely possible that an entire truck's load was either not scanned properly or perhaps wasn't uploaded to the systems due to a bad connection with the scanner. My MacBook Air arrived at my door last June without having been scanned by UPS at all prior to delivery -- not even showing as having arrived as a UPS facility to begin with :)

Mine says "destination scan" in Concord. Spoke to UPS and was told it's on the truck though web tracking doesn't reflect that and it should be here today. If it says destination scanned it should go out for today.

Well, my Apple TV is scheduled to be delivered today, so it will be interesting to see if the iPad shows up at the same time :)

I'm still only seeing 4:00 am arrival in Mt. Hope. WTF! Do they only have 1 airport pickup per day per day? I would think they'd be in & out of there several times a day. Is everyone getting their via UPS, or have they been passed along to Purolator for the final domestic leg? My 1st iPad was delivered to my office via Purolator.

Same here. The Yahoo tracker for UPS does show more "progress".

That's more than I have, only showing "Arrival Scan" 4:00 am. 10.5 hours and no movement? I'm hoping it's further along than that. At this rate it won't even make the delivery truck on Monday. Anyone know, do they work weekends?

Am in the same exact situation, give the same details. Yahoo just updated a location scan at 1:53pm, anyone else? Am in St.Catharines by the way, I dont think Ill get it tonight.

Mine (engraved) spent literally 3.5 days without movement in Louisville, KT... then magically had a "Location Scan" at Mt. Hope this afternoon (1:46pm). It was scheduled for delivery on Monday, so we'll see what happens.

I've been anxiously pacing back and forth in my home office all day as UPS' last tracking update says:

Concord, ON, Canada 03/15/2012 20:32 Destination Scan

Has anyone gotten a failed delivery notice on UPS tracking yet? I'm really hoping they're late in my neighbourhood like they usually are (usually get UPS stuff at 6:30PM). Nothing would be more depressing that coming home to a delivery note when the website still says "Out for delivery".

Ditto here. Mine just arrived about 10 minutes ago despite a similar status to others: Last scan was a "Destination Scan" in Concord at 8:44 last night.

Showed up along with the Apple TV, which was in a separate shipment but actually was listed as "Out for Delivery" and scheduled to arrive today.

It sounds like there's probably a batch that never got scanned before they left this morning.

Well if that's the case, then it's too late at this point. My staff left at 5:00. And still no update beyond 4:00 am this morning in Mt. Hope. They better not try now because then it would be sent back & I wouldn't see it until Tues., or Wed.

Mine arrived a few minutes after 5.

Gotta love the new setup method. I had my first email out from the device about 10 minutes after I opened the box. I'm going through my iTunes account now to selectively add the apps I want on this new device. Giving me an opportunity to do a bit of cleanup/housekeeping. I really don't need MLB 10 on this device.

An update finally. Departure scan from Concord at 8:10 pm, may make the truck Monday after all. Sucks I have to wait the weekend, but something to perk up a Monday

After being told it won't leave Concord until April, I just walked over to Future Shop and grabbed mine. No lines and they had all the LTE models in stock around noon.

Thanks, UPS. :mad:

Hopefully they just didn't know what they were talking about but I didn't really want to take the chance.

I do really find it hard to believe that it could sit in a UPS warehouse that long...

Unfortunately I had the same experience with iPad 1. Try to refuse it if not you have to pay and ship it back.

I think I tried in 2010 and it didn't work.
Worst is that Apple store doesn't take it back.

I didn't have much luck with "UPS - unreliable poor service"
Mine has been stuck at Mount Hope since friday morning (5am)
I called at 10:30am yesterday (friday) to confirm delivery time. They said that it would go out for delivery yesterday.
In the meantime, I receive my apple TV around noon (went through Concord)
6:30PM - nobody at the door and still the same status on their site.
I call again and I'm told that my iPad is scheduled to be delivered between March 16-21.
I say that it's BS and that I want the exact date, mostly after waiting all day cause someone lied to me earlier. Since the agent couldn't help me, I asked to speak with a supervisor who wasn't any better. He kept on repeating:
Apple's iPad shipment is scheduled between March 16-21 and we cannot give you the delivery time until it has been out for delivery.
After realizing that it wasn't going anywhere and that Apple clearly had UPS bent over backwards, I requested some kind of compensation for such ****.y service.
I was offered $30 credit. I asked how much would it cost to ship such shipment from China to Burlington. The supervisor said it would be around $150. So that's what I requested and I got it. $150 credit with UPS.

Now I'm a little less upset about waiting all the way until next week for my iPad that has been just half an hour away for over 24h already!!!

Shipped on the 14th.
Estimated arrival on the 20th.

Of course no one is going to be hanging around to receive it so i will have to wait for it to bounce a for couple of days then pick it up down the street from UPS store.

Thanks for the advice, I was able to call them and refuse it. They'll be sending it back to Apple next week.

Update: I went to UPS to pickup the smart cover (shipped separately and already bounced) and they had my iPad too. Yay!
