My case is in between the 20-27th range. I was thinking that the case would get here really soon but nah, no movements at all.
Got a tip for us?

Yep because they didn't make a billion iPhones ready for launch day they screwed up....unrealthat sucks
screwed up
I ordered two 7+ cases (the leather and the silicone one) from Apple shortly after placing the order for the JB 7+. I received both cases yesterday but still no movement on the phone (which has the Oct 4 - Oct 10 date range). I'm officially tossing the towel in for Launch Day but it's alright, the wait will make the day I receive it that much better 
I contacted apple and told her my current iPhone needs to be returned to at&t cause I am on AT&T next plan and she said let me see what I can do for you. She bumped my delivery date from the 26th to the 22nd she said that's all it will allow her so I'm guessing the first batch of 7+ will be received on the 22nd.
Well it's unlikely that you would have been moved up to the 16th anyway, but yet it is not looking good for anyone tomorrow.
Should I do the same thing...??
I also am on the next and on my att it shows contract pending for the jet black +
Woke up this morning to find an email from UPS My Choice stating that I have a package schedule for delivery tomorrow. I was beyond excited - until I opened up the email and saw that it was a package from Amazon that my dad had ordered. It's a cruel, cruel world!
Having a good laugh seeing all the people freaking out over their already shipped phones doing the Asia Grand Tour. Meanwhile we're over here looking for a CC charge, UPS alert, or Support Profile update. These are the real concerns, folks! They don't know the Jet Black 7+ life struggle!
Woke up this morning. Caught up on the news of plus models unavailable and with every word I could feel myself getting sadder and sadder
Yeah I love how people can't even see what is right in front of them, they just repeat what they've already read. In every comparison video I've seen, the Matte clearly shows more fingerprints because it is less reflective. But the reviewers have been told to troll the Jet Black model, so they do.
It's almost like, some people can't handle Apple doing something good, so they have to find a way to take them down a peg in their own mind. "Oh you made a freaking gorgeous seamless iPhone casing? Yeah well. It can't be that good. It's gonna scratch and show smudges (like every glossy black objects ever made in the history of the world)...so there."
Long time listener, first time caller... Order confirmation at 3:07 CT time, no movement, no charge on account yet. It's disappointing to see my wife's black (matte) 7-plus change to being shipped this morning and for delivery tomorrow. Despite the fact I ordered my jet black one hour before she did. Called apple tried to pay for exported shipping two days ago. Told he I would even pay an extra $100 and she told me that it would delay my shipment. So I hung up, called again, new representative and she told me the same thing . So then my stubborn self tried the online chat with the same response. Guess I'm a stuck with the Sept 26-0ct 3. I just don't understand why they would even release this model. They should have just said available in October if there were truly no units available.
Holy crap I totally missed this in the first watch... wow. WAY more sweat and fingerprints on the matte.
The bright side of things: we can all probably hold our phones for pick up from UPS/FedEx without dealing with a bunch of people on launch day.
long time listener first time caller lol.I don't get why there seems to be no 7+ Jet black available for launch day.
But having ordered the 6+ two years ago at just a few minutes passed preorders opening and having received it a week after launch day; I'm not totally surprised.
My guess is they will start coming in sometime late next week and pretty regular from there on. I have serious doubts anyone will be receiving it in November or even late October who preordered the first day.

I am so in the denial stage still.long time listener first time caller lol.
It's only that particular set of phones doing that route. Apparently there's a typhoon near Taiwan causing them to re-route. For the most part they leave China -> Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, -> Anchorage.
My buddy woke up to an email stating that his 256gb JB 7 Plus will be delivered tomorrow.
