7+ Jet Black (128/256) Date Change Thread

I'm in the same boat as u! When I got "Prepare for Shipping" 2 days ago I thought things were starting to really move along but I've been stuck there ever since! I mean I received my confirmation at 3:03am EDT and it's been a slow agonizing trip ever since. I'm hoping for a tracking and shipping soon!

Mine's been preparing to ship since Saturday and I ordered it right at 3:01am.

I've been buying new phones nearly every year since the 3GS. So I'm used to the process. Apple always sucks at updating the order status. I've had a phone in Preparing for Shipment the day after it already arrived on launch day.

I'm not worried about it sitting in Preparing for Shipment. The fact that Apple charged my credit card for the tax and changed to preparing for shipment is good enough for me.

You'd be able to track your phone on UPS with your number as reference.
 
Looks like my constant complaining just payed off! 128GB iPhone 7 Plus JB (Sprint) just just changed to Preparing for Shipping! No charge just yet but still SO happy.

Mine should be in a UPS nearby somewhere. However there hasn't been a status change on the UPS tracking site. Otherwise I'd pick it up right now.

So does UPS "create labels" on weekends to send out more packages? Or do you think they'll wait until Monday

It looks like they do. Here is my wife's. Label generated today, and already in progress.

Still processing pre ordered around 2:20amCT on apple site shipping Oct 18-31 JB 7+ 128gb verizon
 
7+ JB 256GB AT&T ordered at 3:04am EDT. Still "Pending Shipment". BTW, wife's 7+ 256GB RG is in the same boat. First time in 9 years (I've gotten every "new" model released) that I didn't get a new phone at launch. Not really stressing, though. First world problems, for sure. I enjoy watching our 18 month old peanut play with her iPad (she's more proficient than her grandparents), so the new iPhone can wait. I got bigger fish to fry...

Did you order at 3:04am EDT or did you get your confirmation email at that time? I received my confirmation email at 3:08am EDT and mine shipped out on Friday and will arrive on Monday. It’s odd how Apple chose whose to ship and when. Just curious…..

So there's a flight leaving Shenzhen in about 30 minutes and a flight leaving Hong Kong in about an hour. As far as I can tell those are the last flights until tomorrow late....

That's nice to hear! I'm rapidly approaching 48 hrs in PFS mode, I would love to have it by Tuesday as I'm shooting a wedding on Wed/Thur and leaving town for two weeks on next Saturday.

It would really suck to leave town for two weeks and have my iPhone 7+, JB, 256 GB delivered the Monday after I leave!

All I see is AT&T JB 7 pluses's shipping.


Hoping my Verizon 128 JB + is on one of those! Been in preparing for shipment ever since Thursday afternoon.

The issue is, UPS would have had to scan these tracking numbers hours prior to departure. Assuming this, it would be assumed that our Order Status' would be updated too?

I'm not so sure. I think the last time I got a phone it went from PFS to shipped with no UPS info to 'Shipped' and UPS info within about 30 minutes of the plane taking off. Apple could be bring the phone pallets directly to the airport.
