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

Uh oh, from the looks of my order I might have this situation in the near future. I'll miss have to dispute it with my credit card if they do this. I have screenshots of the page showing the discounts.

Not only that, the pen was advertised as being free. So you basically buy something with a free add-on, and then get charged for the add-on. It's probably borderline illegal

For those who were charged the full price for the pencil, did you first get charged the smaller amount ($0.01 + shipping + tax)?

Thanks for the clarification. I was only charged $8+ for the pencil (so far). This is the most inconsistent ordering system I've seen.

I placed 2 orders:
1) 256 gb with pencil - overnight shipping
- Received today (both iPad and pencil pro)
2) 128 gb with pencil - standard shipping
- iPad - ready to ship
- Pencil - cancelled.
Planning to call and cancel my second order.

Fortunately for me they only charged 8.53 for pencil. The ipad still shows ships soon. I hope they don't charge me more pencil in case ipad is cancelled which is quite likely
