That will come once Apple officially calls it shipped, so you have some time.


I hope it'll be a live link to a form from your shipping confirmation email. They won't leave us hanging.
 
Despite me being the first one charged also, im not getting anything. I only have "preparing for shipment still". My date remained at September 26-Oct 3. It looks like everyone that got bumped upto Sept 23-30 are the ones who are getting theirs processed right now.
 
Intere
sting. Hope the sim card thing was just 7's, not plusses, or pre production models.

I don't think so because I have September 21-28
 
Just for the record, so we can see how it looks in the end, did not request expedited shipping, Monday delivery. Maybe expedited will get Saturday, you never know.

I requested expedited shipping, but when they charged my card, they did not include it in the charge. My date says Sep 23-27. My order was for $1059, but they charged $1048 to my AMEX.
 
This happens every year. Multiple people have the same order prefix so just wait a little bit and you will have your own soon!

ah that makes sense - so unfortunate to find out that even though it switched to Preparing for Shipment and my credit card has been charged that I won't be getting it tomorrow. Especially because when I did the track by reference it said delivery by close of business 16th just to the wrong location. Oh well... the wait is back on.

Just remember.....any day next week is better than November.

Again expedited shipping of preorders does absolutely zero. Nothing. Nadda. It only wastes Support's time trying. This has been covered a ton over many cycles. They all are shipped the same way, the fastest way possible. You do not get it any faster than anyone else. These all go on huge pallets the same method.

Probably Monday, could be worse. Not happy, but hard to be upset.

Nope, just a charge and pending shipping since around noon CT.

When its 2am, Ive never seen expedited shipping available until this launch and the ship date said Sep 27, I picked it. I preorder every year and get it on launch. I don't think about whether Im wasting Support's time or not.
 
Well, I have a departures scan:

Shenzhen, China 09/16/2016 1:32 P.M. Departure Scan

So I guess on track for Monday, assume everyone will be catching up soon.
 
Hopefully changing my package to be picked up at a UPS CC instead of being delivered to my home will give me a small glimmer of hope to receive my JB+ today. If not, Monday is not bad.
 
For everyone that got their shipping bumped up and already see their devices in UPS, are you all on the West Coast or near it?
