Leopard shipping early?
Written on October 24, 2007 by Josh Pigford and 20 people have commented
A TAB reader in Canada sent us this image of his order status for Leopard. His copy of Leopard was shipping this morning via Purolator Courier’s Express Overnight delivery, which should put Leopard in his hands possibly by tomorrow…a day early than expected.
Has anyone else noticed if there pre-order of Leopard has shipped?
#1 Niclet says:Nah! Not for me. I just went to verify my order status and it says: “Ships by: DELIVERS ON OCTOBER 26TH”
Even if I place my order it in the first hour Leopard was pre-orderable!
#2 Jeremy says:Mine now says “Prepared for Shipment”, just changed from “Not Shipped”. I pre-ordered mine on the 6/10/2007 at 10:22 PM JST. I’m not sure what that is in PDT, but I think i ordered it within on hour or so of it being available.
#3 Erlend says:Mine just changed to “prepared for shipment”, so I gues it will ship tonight, and it would be here by friday (26).
#4 AT says:mine is prepared for shipment also. I take it it will head out today.
#5 Fred Brunel says:Mine just shipped today. I got the same mail.
#6 Derek Reiff says:I’m hoping and wishing they ship it out today… I’m also hoping / wishing that they’re ‘masking’ the ship date on the status so we’d be left thinking delivery is on Friday.. … …
#7 Rick Yaeger says:I have no faith in Purolater. Even if my order did say “shipped” I wouldn’t expect to see it until Tuesday in a soaking wet, dented box.
#8 midbach says:I went to check my status after reading this and my history has been cleared… Odd that it was OK this morning.
Purolater is worse than useless. I always end up needing to pick up my shipment at their office.
#9 MauiDan says:Oh wow, I just checked my order number thanks to this article. Here’s my tracking number: 753589811044. Guess I’ll have to wait till I get home. Did anyone else get their’s today?
#10 MauiDan says:LOL nevermind I’m retarded. That was another item on the same order. (nice one…) Leopard is still “preparing for shipment.
#11 Chris says:My copy of Leopard is also, “Prepared for Shipment,” but it does say, “Ships by: DELIVERS ON OCTOBER 26TH.”
And yes, it does appear in all caps on the actual order page.
#12 Niclet says:Hey, hey! I juste receive this :

#15 Pilok says:Hi!

The beast is coming…
#16 Erlend says:I’m belgian too and mine has shiped also, hopefully leopard arrives tomorrow!
#17 theEsco says:Yeah.
Im in toronto.
Purolator was bright and early with Leopard in hand.
Im at work tho, so I don’t get a chance to play with it until after 6 anyways.
The packaging is in those nice small boxes they’ve been putting iLife in.
Very nice.
#18 Erlend says:The cat has arrived and is installed…
#19 AT says:Toronto too. Purlator showed up at 9:09am with Cat in hand.
Cat owner is @ work though
#20 Niclet says:?&#$#@!!! Purolator forgot my parcel at their Sorting Center. I called and it’s impossible to get there to pick it up. So, if they do right (!), I’ll get it on monday. Deception 8(
