Ok thank you. I'm not sure what to make of mine. This is what it looks like.

Anyone received "Fulfilled" email for their iPad without tracking number? I did next day shipping and I have no way to track the package or know it even shipped.

Mine received tracking for pencil, but iPad is in processing. If order not expect to happen, I will charge back to my cc.

Just got a fulfilled email and tracking number for the ipad 13 air at 6 am pst this morning, shipping to CA. I received the pencil pro fulfilling email first yesterday while my ipad status was still at "on order, shipping soon". I didn't think it would ship because last time it had stayed at the same stage for well over 2 weeks and gotten cancelled eventually, but this time it worked and I am receiving a free apple pencil pro so I am super delighted. I knew this was going to be a cancel mess in which only a certain number of lucky random order gets shipped so I created a total of 4 orders with next business day shipping this time and all other 3 were cancelled while this one sticks. For reference, I was late to the party and my orders weren't created until almost one and a half hour after the post was made so next day shipping definitely helped in some sense for shipment priority in their system. This is going to be for my personal use, and it's easily the best deal of the year, 400 for ipad 13 air and apple pencil pro is insane.

My pencil just shipped this AM. Even with the slow shipping, I'll have the 13" ipad and the pencil in my hands by tomorrow. Already ordered the case on Amazon, now to find a decent deal on the paperlike screen covers.

Which case did you choose, if you don't mind me asking? The Apple Keyboard is very expensive compared to Samsung.

11" Blue 256GB marked shipped with UPS Ground tracking number (paid for regular shipping) about an hour ago, Pencil "Not ready". Existing non-EDU email account.

11" Grey 256GB+Pencil still in "Not Ready" state. Created new account with email at school and placed order an hour after the first.

Update:
11" Blue 256GB marked shipped with UPS Ground tracking number (regular shipping) the same day as purchase. UPS received package the evening after. Pencil changed to shipped two days after purchase ($0.01 charge). Existing non-EDU email account.

11" Grey 256GB+Pencil cancelled later on day of purchase. Created new account with email at school and placed order an hour after the first.

These kind of deals are the actual slick deals. It's not like it was a price error and they canceled everyone's orders. A lot of people who probably ordered by a certain time are actually receiving the iPads. Not everyone gets lucky with deals like these. No pain no gain.

10/10 would recommend

Oh for sure, I've had my share of good luck and bad luck thru deals. Just got the bad draw this time along with the hassle of a wonky charge.

I definitely would have been ok with a cheap pencil as consolation prize, but to get charged full price for it plus shipping and lose out on the iPad just adds salt into the wound.

Would do again, lol

I live for the dealssss

I think quite a few of us paid for the next day shipping ($24) and only received the Apple Pencil while iPad got cancelled. In my case, I was only charged for the shipping and the Pencil was free (0.01 cent). Has anyone tried to return the pencil and receive refund for their next day shipping?

That's a dumb move if you were only charged for the shipping on this pencil. It retails for 110 so even at $24 it's one hell of a deal.

I got the tracking for the pencil pro, but checking with UPS, it says "1 of 2 Piece Shipment".. I'm guessing the iPad should follow, but with how things are going, I'm not sure anymore.

FWIW, the order I did with next day shipping got cancelled, but the one with regular shipping is still in progress.

I did multiple orders with standard shipping so atleast one will stick which is what happened. I got one 13inch and pencil and a pencil from 11inch order. Both out for delivery. The tracking for both pencils is same so I guess there are 2 in the box...Will known later today. The 11 inch ipad still says ships soon not cancelled so there is hope....

You can click on where it says 1 of 2 piece, it will scroll down and maximize the two tracking numbers. Check the item weight for both of them. If it is .6 lbs, I guess it is just a pencil.

My 13 iPad also fulfilled but yet to receive the tracking number.

I wish I had made an account instead of checking out as guest so that I could see some kind of status. No emails still, only a pending charge of $8.56 from ASU in my bank account.
