My phone was delayed again, this time because of weather. There's almost 5' of snow out there, and driving bans everywhere.

I saw pic tweeted from cuomo the other day on some highway... holy crap.. At least Buffalo knows how to handle snow.

Lol yup, I'm bummed all around.

My prediction:

Sometime late Friday I'll (we'll) receive another email delaying the est ship date until 12/12, which is the current ship date that you'd get if you ordered online today.

A dude in the Sprint thread who has been waiting for a SG 128 GB 6+ since 9/20 got an email from Sprint pushing his out again...to 12/23.

Something is up with the 128 GB 6+, beyond simply high demand. There has to be.

Actually, I already have a 128 gb iPhone 6. Got it Day 1. :)

I'm in charge or our corporate phones and I decided I'd rather have the 6+, so I'm getting that and handing my 6 off to someone else. That guy is actually more anxious than me since he's still sporting a 4...not even a 4s. Ha ha.

Switched to 64 SG iPhone 6 Plus and now shipping

I ordered a SG 128 GB 6 Plus on 10/14/2014 and had a ship date of 10/31/2014. It is supposedly going to be 11/21/2014 now (I received zero emails--this is according to customer service). The weird thing is I tried to just cancel and get a SG 64 GB 6 Plus, and the system wouldn't let the VZW rep cancel my order. She figured it is because it is about to ship. Now I am not so sure. :( I will keep everyone posted, but if I don't hear anything in a day or two, I am going to try to cancel and just get a 64 GB one again.

I decided to not wait any longer. I am not a conspiracy theorist, but I guess I actually am when it comes to the 128s. Something is definitely wrong. So I canceled my order on Tuesday and ordered a SG iPhone 6 Plus 64GB. I just received notice that it has shipped and should be here tomorrow. We will see if anyone's 128s ship tomorrow. My bet is against it.

Hahahahaha! Exactly. I should also note that the first guy couldn't cancel my 128 order, but when I called back in a day later, the second rep could.

I like the play on words that it has "not received sufficient supply" blaming Apple. (which could be but interesting)

Has anyone gotten compensation for this delay? (free case, charges waved etc)

I am done with the 128+. I'm going for the 64+ and going threw Apple. I originally started with Att. There totaly whacked over there. B/f offered to buy on his Verizon Bus Account. And just got pushed up to 12/12. I'll retry the 128 6+ When the 6+s comes around. Or 7+. Oh well. Just hoping the 64+ holds all the business files I do.

Whelp.

Just got the delay email to 12/12.

Ordered 10/13
First est ship: 10/31
Second et ship: 11/21
Third est ship: 12/12
Fourth est ship: TBD
Fifth est ship: TBD

128 GB SG 6 Plus.

No way it's going to ship on the 12th either. Apple should come clean about whatever issues there are with this phone. This is not simply high demand. NFW. I can't believe they're still taking orders for it. They obviously can't deliver it.

I am a sales representative for Verizon. I decided to change my order from a 128 to a 64 and my order shipped overnight. I'm not sure what is going on with the 128's but theu keep getting delayed. I have a 128 gb air 2 for movies so I should be good.
