Ok, I really don't want this to turn into a topic where everyone flames about how long it's taking to approve... so if you are thinking about doing that go to one of the other two threads where they are doing that. I just want to know how long people have been having to wait to get approval for premium ipods. Thanks for the help.

I was approved on 13 October, the day after it was released. IIt took ten business days to get approved. I'm still processing though, about 20 business days so far cry I really hope it doesn't take much longer....

Wow Freepay seems to be lagging. I guess it's the demand from Germany.

Yeh it's probably those damn germans and all their orders. That and the popularity of the ipod vid. I sent in a ticket to freepay and they told me that there's a 2-3 week delay for the ipod vids. I can't figure whether that's 2-3 weeks from when I went processing or 2-3 weeks from when I sent in ticket. I really really want it now. Just to wave around and brag to all my mates.

Damn, i guess freepay have got more ipods for you guys over there than us in England. I reckon the black ones are more popular as well, so waiting list for em is way longer than the white ones.

I submitted for approval on the 14th of November with 9 greens. Since I submitted, I've had 8 more people receive credit for their offers. Will those offers count even though they came in after I submitted?

Just submitted my order, as I was approved this morning! Woohoo! (I'm goin' white btw.)

ae804

23-11-2005 11:02:59

yea, i was aproved today and ordered, so about 2 and a half weeks to order and lets see how long it takes to ship the black ipod.

firewalker877

23-11-2005 12:00:20

I figured that since black was in such high demand if I went with white, it might ship faster. And if I decide I would rather have black, theres an apple store just a few minutes away. It will be interesting to see when the different colors ship.

can you change your order once it's processing?

ae804

24-11-2005 22:34:51

Does anyone know where the Video iPods are shipping from? I believe the standard iPods were supplied by eCost in Memphis TN. I called them today to check their stock and I was told that they were currently at a stock level of negative five, but that they are getting them in about every week now.

[quotefdb3002329="ae804"]black or white?[/quotefdb3002329]

I went STV this morning for a black one. I thought I'd have to wait longer for it, but it only took a few days. I'm fired up.

If anyone gets shipping info, please post it.

I submitted on the 7th, but havn't gotten past the 7-10 business days.

Hopefully you'll get approved soon, so that I can know they're doing them ;)

Or rather, should I hope you don't, so that then they do 'em in a clump? =P

well if they do them in a clump it could be much later!

plus, you want your fellow FIPG member scoring his 60 gig video ipod as soon as possible!

I will update you accordingly. )

If it was in a clump, see, you'd be the one who started it, giving me a 6 day jump in the pile. But, heheh, I doubt it works that way.

Best of luck ... waiting's the hardest part -- at least when you don't have enough offers you can be actively working on it.
