Ordered AirPods on November 15, and it still hasn't shipped. I check the online account page and it says "ships within 19-26 days"....

My biggest concern with this whole rebrand was that it was going to be a kit of scams with undocumented asterisks and exceptions. This is proving to be mostly true. I am sure I will eventually get my Airpods, but I am unsure why it takes two months to do so. With every "benefit" that I am trying to use, there is always some caveat that leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
