couple things:
1. if your card gets charged and you didnt pay via paypal, congrats, your order is getting shipped
2. if your order status says fulfilled, it's getting shipped for sure
3. if it says shipping soon, it might still get cancelled.
4. the earlier you order, the higher chance of it shipping, but dont be surprised if ppl who ordered after you from a diff uni got theirs and you didn't. it's all luck.
5. tax will be charged on the full msrp of the pencil, not a huge deal

My PayPal account got charged. Does that mean it will ship?
No. PayPal authorizes a payment regardless of whether something eventually ships or not

Is everyone ordering a student? Or anyone can order or people are just trying their luck?

Order an 11" iPad from ASU, with shipping to Maryland. (Edit: no updated from ASU).
Then, I ordered a 13" iPad from a school in MD, using an email address from another Maryland school. I selected pickup this time. (Edit: got order confirmation).
Time will tell if either order goes through.

Anyone can order. You can also order from different bookstores, maybe one that is closer to you: https://www.bkstr.com/efollettstore/home

Decided to stop by my local college bookstore in person and they are running the same sale but I couldn't get them to give me the free Apple pencil. They said that free pencil is only for regular priced ipads. I got a 13" 128gb for $350, same as online price.

last time, I ordered within 10 minutes of the deal being posted and again when a restock hit.
I got 2/3 orders

This time I was about 30 minutes late and placed several different orders. I would be shocked if I receive any of them. All I really want is an 11 inch 256 GB iPad please!
