I had something similar happen, and it is maddening having your delivery pause and have an unknown delivery date. However, with luck, the delay should not be more than a couple of days (unless there's a really big storm going through the Midwest/East).
Got a tip for us?

2024 - Apple Vision Pro US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread
- Thread starter 4sallypat

I know this thread isn't for returns, but I did run into a problem I've never encountered - when trying to return the Vision Pro, the point-of-sale device at my local Apple Store said that the headset could only be returned at the Store where it was purchased (even though it was a web order that I picked up). The staff there, including manager, had never seen that. Some potential factors:
- I started an online return first - though they told me this shouldn't matter
- I separately cancelled the Zeiss lenses that I ordered before they shipped - though they had a separate order number
- I have returned or cancelled several orders lately - partly indecision, partly faulty products - I've probably returned or exchanged 5 of my last 6 or 7 orders. Just trying to be transparent (they did not suggest this was an issue, and none have been near the magnitude of this, price wise - nearly all of those were FineWoven cases)
Well that's interesting as I started the online label printout returns.
But it does say that I can return it to ANY Apple Store....
I spoke with AppleCare by phone - they said they were having a number of issues with online returns, and that they could see a label generated on their end but had to reset (cancel and re-do) the return. "Back end issues" is what I was told.
Regardless, I just made the trek to the original store (about 45 min) and the return was quick and easy. Not sure what caused this little snafu but not the end of the world to resolve. I'm actually returning with the intent of buying the 512 GB model!
Oké it’s finally shipped now. Should be delivered by the forwarder this Friday.
Mine is delivered at the forwarder today, 6 days early.
Now waiting for the forwarder to book it in and ship it to The Netherlands, i am on the last stretch now 😀

Looks like no availability of any model in any store right now (although delivery is showing open for w/c March 1st). Hoping things get restocked next week, because I so desperately want to pick one of these up on my trip to NY, and am only there for 6 days from Wednesday.
So if everyone could PLEASE post how rubbish this thing is, everywhere all over the internet, just for the next few days to dampen demand, it would be much appreciated

Nope. Still actually on preparing to ship. It switched on Friday though, so no movement all weekend and today was a holiday. I bet I’ll get a tracking number tomorrow.
Mine was 6 days on Prepair to ship, after that it moved from china and got delivered in 4 days.
Ordered 256gb Model on Monday 19th. Estimated delivery March 1-7.
Shipped this morning, expected on Monday 26th

ordered 1TB model on Feb 6. Estimated Delivery was Feb 27 - Mar 6. Got tracking number last night, Feb 21, expected delivery Monday 26th also.
Ordered 2/9. Got shipping notice 2/12. It got stuck in some gov't clearance status. Apple appear to have sent another a few days ago that has cleared gov't agency and hopefully arrives next week. No official ETA yet. It's been a wait!
This has probably been discussed, but just in case…
Last week my local store had a 1 TB available that I quickly bought. When I went to the store to pick it up, they said they actually add my size headbands to the box and seal it in the back room. I thought that was interesting.

Why isn’t this getting more attention?
One there aren’t a number of skus for the headbands. Given the low volume this makes sense.
Bought one in person today at my local Apple Store! 512GB.
