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

Pencil shipping notification received 10 minutes ago. iPad 13 charged $370 just now. Hopefully, I will receive its shipping notification soon. Both pencil and iPad says fulfilled.

So all my orders but 1.5 have been cancelled. The one with 13 inch and pencil is coming.. Another order for 11 inch with pencil shows pencil shipped ipad ships soon but I don't think ipad is coming. They charged me 8.53 for second pencil. The only thing is the tracking number for both pencils is same so I am guessing they put 2 in same package. May be I am getting a near free additional pencil

Seems like it was most effective for those of us who ponied up for the $23.99 overnight shipping to get prioritized higher than 2-day or regular shipping folks.I missed out on this deal last time, so I paid the overnight shipping fee which seemd to work. Glad this time there are free Apple Pencils too Smilie
was this all a price mistake? it makes no sense why they cancel orders.

Quote from kqian111 :
The college bookstores had some inventory and mirrored the same sale price as online. I was able to grab a 13". Next time, I'll know to go straight to the store when the sale pops up online. That's your best shot at getting one. My wife went to the same store about an hour later and everything sold out quick.
did they not require student ID? Was the price labeled there in the bookstore? it would be difficult to make it in an hour after the deal goe sup here unless you live nearby and even saw it on time in the first place.

What should I do? Pencil shipped and charged 25 total for shipping and pencil. iPad order just cancelled after saying shipping soon? Can't get anyone on the phone. I guess I could sell it on eBay and make like 50 dollar profit total.
