Mine says scheduled for delivery tomorrow (09/25)... too bad I'm in Shanghai right now.

Its a california thing - My phone is sitting there too

ZhengZhou, China 09/23/2013 7:30 P.M. Arrival Scan

Mine has the exact same tracking info, down to the same times. Look like our phones are sitting to next other's.

Anyways, mine is being shipped to New York.
 
Most likely iPhones have already shipped but UPS site hasn't been updated. It's hard to believe that so many orders are sitting around for over a day at UPS. Go with the delivery date it's usually correct
 
UPS now shows 9/26 by end of day to San Francisco via Worldwide Express Saver.

Mine is also coming to Califonria (San Francisco). I have a hunch that (maybe) UPS forgot a scan; that is, the next scan will be somewhere here in mainland USA. Fingers crossed that iPhone arrives sooner than we expect, but I won't hold my breath!

Let's hope you are right! I really wish I could play with mine on Wednesday, instead of Thursday as suggested by UPS.. :eek:
 
you guys are so freaking funny! thanks for keeping me entertained while i wait for my 2 gold verizon 16G iPhones scheduled to arrive thursday. cargo plane schedules, fight routes, logistics, complainers, comedians . . .freaking awesome!! :D
 
Although mine still shows in China, UPS changed my delivery date from Thursday to Wednesday (by end of day). It's been showing China for more than 24 hours, so I think it's no longer there, actually.

I think your right and that all of the sudden we will see a lot of updates from UPS... maning it landed here yesterday, then went to where ever and is in route to our states all within a few hours...
 
Ordered 12:04 gold 64g ATT

I changed my UPS home delivery of Thursday to pick up at UPS office down the street this afternoon and my iPhone that was stuck in China is now in San Diego for pick up! It was within a couple hours of calling UPS.

I'm sure all those iphones are on their way to US and not in China. I don't trust the tracking. I had a Thursday delivery and now I can pick it up tuesday at the UPS office near my house in the morning!

Here's what my tracking shows now:

It's obvious that the 32gb gold vzw phone was absolutely the wrong phone to order. Even though it said 1-3 days, I haven't seen ANY ship yet. Mine is still preparing to ship too, and I was in at 12:02. This really stinks... No iphone this week, it appears. If they don't ship out tomorrow, it will be the first time I've ordered from apple.com where they don't meet their own conservative estimates. :(

Mine is also now in Kentucky. Scheduled to leave for my city (Birmingham) at 5am and arrive here before 5 my time for delivery today.

Hope mine makes the trip to Birmingham with yours! I'm just down the road in Inverness...

Can my Montgomery piggy back with the two of yours? Mine has been sitting lifeless in Memphis since it showed up on FedEx Sunday at 2:30. Hasn't cleared customs maybe? Good luck to my two fellow Bama peeps!

Wow! You went from ZZ skipping through HK, AK, and straight to SD.

My package is scheduled for thursday to so I just put in a request to pick up at UPS station just in case it gets here early:

09/24/2013 3:30 P.M. My Choice delivery change option request / As requested, the receiver will pickup at a UPS facility at their convenience. This must be within 5 business days.

What's weird is that I just made this request at 1230 am PT (9/24) but the UPS website posted my request at 330 pm ZZ, China local time (9/24). So there is a possibility that these packages might be arriving earlier since the system is obviously not up to date.
 
Deliver date updated from 25th Sep to 24th Sep.

Ordered at 12:03am (PDT) to SoCal

Another few more hours of waiting
 
Silver 64GB AT&T 5S, order confirmation at 12:02am last Friday, now bumped up to delivery tomorrow Sept 24 by 3pm in San Francisco.

Nice refresh page surprise!
