Verizon is currently listing AirPods Max in silver and space gray as estimated to ship by December 18, although we've heard about some customers receiving order confirmations showing delivery on December 14, a day ahead of the official launch.
Other colors are in shorter supply, with Verizon estimating orders for AirPods Max in green will ship around January 8, while sky blue and pink are simply sold out.
Note that Verizon's timeframes are listed as estimates, so there's no guarantee that the carrier will meet those dates, but if you're looking for a purchase option before the holidays and don't think Apple retail stores will have stock next week, Verizon might be your best bet right now.
Update: Verizon is now out of stock of all colors.

Listen folks... buy what you want (or don’t buy Lol). But people saying “if they were $400 I’d get them” is funny to me. $150 although a difference, isn’t a BIG difference...
To each their own.
It's like the M1 chip. You could say that they are 'new' to the chip business but really they have been making them for years in iPhones and iPads which is why they've just come out of the gates and beat all of the competition. Apple have been in the headphone game for a while now, audio is not a new thing to them.
It wasn’t worth the extra hassle to be sincere
