PENDING SHIPMENT.

 

[arbitrage]

Mine has made it to Seattle WA this morning and was with everyone else yesterday from Korea-Anchorage-Lousiville. Next I think it will cross into Canada to Vancouver and then it will unfortunately hit the road via truck up to Whitehorse. Sometimes it may go to Edmonton first and then by truck. We shall see. UPS still saying they will get it to me by Friday end of day.

I'm right near Vancouver, leaving to catch a flight at 2pm. I think 12pm is the latest I can leave. Seriously doubt it's gonna get from Seattle to Surrey in the next 5 hrs.

Oct. Shipping

I ordered my phone at a Verizon Store the first day as Apple in its wisdom decided not to make enough supply. I have to wait until Nov. to get my phone. How crass is that?

 

[Kingzope]

Mine is sitting in same place but says it will be here (Chicago) by Wed.

It must be because I'm East Coast... That's pretty ridiculous considering others in the US it took a day to get to them. UPS has always been sporadic.

My 64GB Silver TMO that I ordered at 5:53 EST is now in Incheon, Korea as of this morning. Still says I won't have it until Friday though. I hope it changes to a day early like some of shipments I've seen here since I work from home Thursday.

Incheon, Korea, Republic of 10/01/2013 8:21 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 10/01/2013 4:46 P.M. Departure Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/30/2013 4:11 P.M. Origin Scan
China 09/30/2013 6:26 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS

Wow. This is confirmation that UPS China is working continuously through the holiday (at least for Apple's packages). Great news.

 

[itouchaddicted]

I just called apple and they also told me that ups china is working during holidays. I just called to see if i cud get free case or something but no luck lol

Wow, that's the exact same itinerary as my unlocked 32GB Gold 5S!
I'm just glad that's it's arriving early given the initial arrival date was scheduled for the 8th-11th
That's said, I would certainly prefer for it to arrive sooner, as I'll have to have it reshipped to Japan where I'm ACTUALLY living (Apple doesn't sell unlocked iPhones here, and you can't pry an unlock from the carriers cold dead fingers). Ah well my carrier gave me a free iPhone 5 while I wait, which is in itself a nice upgrade from the 4S....

Anyway, lets hope we all get our phones soon, its certainly been a long wait.

I'm in Vic and mine says delivered by noon, so you'll probably be fine actually.

 

[StevenT42]

My shipment moved to Inchon, but has not moved from there. It is still scheduled for Friday delivery.

 

[WRXHokie]

My status just changed to "Preparing for shipment" last night. I received my confirmation email for a 16GB Gold at 12:07. I was one of the people who had Ships 1-3 days showing until I clicked to finalize my order and it changed.

Same here. I was in the 1-3 group and then at confirmation it changed to 7-10. I'm still waiting...

Are you East Coast as well?

 

[richpuer]

I spoke to an Apple rep last night who said that in order to meet the guaranteed delivery date of (Oct 7-10) it MUST ship out tomorrow (today). He was adamant that the Holiday in China was not going to affect these orders. I asked twice. He gave me a free case for the inconvenience, so, I'm content I guess. Still would rather have my phone....

Who said it was a guarantee on the delivery date? Do we get something if they miss it? Still processing here , gold att 12:17

 

[Brlgfan]

Mine is in Korea too. But my delivery date is tomorrow.

Same here mine is by the end of the day Tomorrow.

 

[Alectric]

Has anyone who went into "prepare for shipping" yesterday gone to "shipping" yet?

 

[Kemonsterr]

16 gb Gold for AT&T still processing...I'm just never gonna get a phone lol

 

[Kingzope]

Same here mine is by the end of the day Tomorrow.

Are you west coast?

I'm just trying to figure out why a bunch of us have the exact same tracking but delivery is either Wed, Thurs, or Friday. Earlier iPhone 5S shipments were taking a day from Korea to their Destination. So Wednesday seems about right. For those of us with Friday as our day, it seems a bit off.

 

[k3roro]

Credit card charged on Sunday.

Status switched to "Preparing for Shipment" yesterday.

Confirmation received at 3:20 EST on 9/20/2013.

 

[Larrupin]

Has anyone who went into "prepare for shipping" yesterday gone to "shipping" yet?

Not me....it has been preparing to ship since early afternoon yesterday. Fingers crossed that we all get some movement today!

I'm seeing posts from people who are being told Friday delivery who have shipped already. I hope that doesn't mean we will be getting ours after the weekend. My iPhone 5 has to be postmarked on Friday to nextworth if I want to get the original quote of $451. Lets hope for it to arrive sooner.

 

[raw911]

Finally 64gb gold AT&T.
I got front door open waiting.
