I got a friend that works for amazon shipping department, she says amazon firts has to buy a huge shipment of the product, then the shipper will ship to amazon 85% of all purchased items, and them amazon takes 24 hours to organize the huge boxes in detail of each product, 8gb,32gb, 64gb pods, and then it ships to the buyer, the product comes out on wednesday it will ship on thursday.

Correct. Except, I talked to someone who also works with Apple and I asked them, if I buy from Amazon, will it take longer for them to ship? He said not really, since Amazon gets the shipments earlier before so that they can ship around the same dates as Apple does. I've already bought 2. One from Apple and the other from here. I bought it on Apple, only to get it engraved for my husband. And the other iPod touch is for me. Let's see which one comes in first! As to the release date, Apple says the estimate date is the 11th.

I was wondering about this too. It's set to launch on Wednesday... if we pre ordered it from Amazon, will we receive our ipods in the mail on Wed?

i was wonderin too. I partially checked out the ipod touch and it said delivery for one day is around the 15th which is like next week. can someone confirm this? it seems a little odd unless theyre expecting it to be backordered.

Apple and Amazon are shipping on wednesday. They do the "First come, first served". I ordered mine yesterday (Sep 5) and my delivery estimate is from 20th to the 27th. With the 2-day shipping the shipping estimate is from the 16th to the 23rd. So they are saying they are shipping it 11-18 days from the pre-order day. Im almost 100% sure that amazon will ship it WAY before that. All the products i've ordered from amazon have come "early". So amazon already has the iPods they are just waiting for wednesday to ship them and you will receive them according to your shipping speed. Apple and Amazon are shipping on wednesday.

I've noticed lately that Amazon has been giving very conservative estimates on its shipment/arrival dates. My items have always arrived well before Amazon's "estimated" arrival dates. I think this is a game they play with us so that we're happy when our packages arrive "early." The real question is whether or not Amazon actually has these in stock. Is Apple holding them back from everybody until Wednesday? Or are they just asking their sellers to not put them in customers' hands until Wednesday?

"As to the release date, Apple says the estimate date is the 11th." I think it is sooner cause when I had my ordered at apple.com I had an estimated delivery date of the 10th-14th and that it with their free shipping so it's slow. I canceled my order and got it here to save money.

I ordered on 6/29 and my delivery date is 8/11-8/14... we'll see... really starting to be disappointed that this was allowed to go so long without being shipped...

I ordered Thurs June 14 at 9:30pm est and the status is still "not yet shipped" ... can other people who ordered earlier than me and have gotten theirs already post when exactly they ordered so the people who are waiting have a better idea when we can expect availability. Thanks.

Thank you for contacting us. Amazon automatically gives an Expected Ship Date & Estimated Delivery Date when your order is placed. Since we have such a high volume of orders & no control over an order once it leaves our warehouse, we cannot guarantee that it will be delivered on a specific day, but we can get it to you within the time period allotted in Amazon. Thank you for your question; we hope that helps! OverstockDrugstore

Ordered mine Aug 10, still not delivered as of Sept. 17th. Outrageous delivery time for this product. Wish I had known it would take so long, I would never have ordered.....

Ordered on the 10th. Expected to deliver on the 13th. Watching amazon for a status update. Would not be suprised if it got switched to backordered.Update: Amazon has updated the delivery date to the 16th today (This is on one-day shiping). Let the customer know the day it's expected to be delivered that it'll be delayed is quite dumb. Stay classy Amazon

Same as G Nerd Boy G.I ordered on the 12th I believe, and I received notification it shipped on the 15th. It just left my local UPS hub, but does not say out for delivery... confuses me since it's a Saturday but it has no reason to be on a truck right now.The scheduled delivery date is the 18th -- I'll keep you guys updated =)

I ordered mine October 15. Their delivery estimate said November 12-November 29. I'm hoping it gets here in the next five days. It seems like a very, very long shipping time. I'm getting worried!

The delivery estimate shown for my order is 4 weeks! Order placed on 9/27. Estimated arrival given is oct 29-nov13. I will see if the seller estimate given above is true. Orderd it for halloween based on the answer above.....hopefully not a bummer.Update 10/13. It arrived within 15 days. Thumbs up to the delivery promise.

Mine took 10 days to arrive, way earlier than their estimated arrival dates. Their estimated arrival date was 4-6 weeks from the time l placed my order.

Nothing here. When did you order? I ordered on March 12th. They've put the shipping estimate back twice - (to which I complained about 'fake' dates). They now have no estimated date for delivery [which I prefer].

To my surprise this is not a typo. --- I usually place my orders and then go back the next day to see about the delivery info. this one reads: Ordered on January 25, 2015 --- Not yet shipped, Expected delivery: Tuesday, March 3, 2015 - Tuesday, March 31, 2015

I ordered mine Jan 6th and just received it today Feb 11th but I guess that depends on where you live....I live in AZ Expect it within the "estimate dates" that are given.... mine arrived within that time frame
