Bogus iPad Pro Shipping Info

The first origin scan reported by UPS for my iPad Pro's shipping was <Shenzhen, China 11/14/2015 11:00 P.M.>. Four days (and 8 scans later) it read—<Louisville, KY, United States 11/17/2015 12:50 A.M. Arrival Scan>. But a few hours later it mysterious regressed to <Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong 11/18/2015 9:28 P.M. Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery>.


I spent 30 minutes with Apple's chat support trying to get an explanation. Totally. Unsuccessful. The rep said that all the iPad Pros were having troubles with accurate scan with UPS. I didn't buy it because my tracking number showed a predictable progress until Louisville, KY.


Anybody else experiencing problems like this?

So . . . order shipped on the 16th of November, and it made it from China all the way to Kentucky. That same day, November 19th, it managed to make its way back to Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong. It stayed there a whole day or so, and then it shipped twice. There are two timestamps next to each other, one saying in transit from Hong Kong and the other a few minutes later saying that it shipped. Since it has shipped, there is no longer any information on my purchase. The iPad has vanished. About five days have passed without anything on my iPad. I don't even have a delivery date. This is a problem because I'm not going to be able to receive it later in the week when I have family obligations for Thanksgiving. I really would like to know why, after a week has gone by since it allegedly shipped, I still don't have a delivery estimate. This is actually really problematic.


Anyone else having the same problem, and if you are having the same problem, have you discovered what is going on?

im having a problem like this with my I phone x. the shipping updates have been very broad and the last thing they told me was "Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery." I was never informed if it left china and they took away my delivery estimate 2 days ago. when I called all they could say was "keep checking the website." It is supposed to arrive Friday, and unless like they're telling you that "the scans are all messed up" it is not looking likely for me to get the delivery on Friday.
