My wife and I ordered at almost the exact same time, and hers has moved to Preparing for Shipment, but mine is still stuck on Processing. Ugh.

We both ordered 6+'s around 3:30 AM Friday.

It's okay. Maybe you can get it the week after. No worries, it'll arrive some time :)

It was the weekend. Now we will start to see A LOT of movement... And don't forget they have to process millions and millions of orders.

If Apple tells you it will be there Friday, it will be there Friday don't worry.

Yup, still processing.
VISA been billed though. *shrug* I'm not worrying about it unless it gets past lunch on Friday with no update.

Its happened where people have actually gotten their phone and yet Apple still says "processing". That's how bad their systems can be hammered.

Yep. We've had at least one phone each of the last couple of rounds that have shown up as 'processing' even up until the night before when it finally gave a tracking number. I wouldn't be too worried about it.

A lot of units are stateside. If you life close to a distribution center, it's not going to get updated for another day or two.

It's weird. It showed preparing for shipment like two days ago and now it's back at processing. Still 9/19 delivery date. I ordered my 6+ at 12:40AM so I'm not concerned.

Got an email Friday Morning at 1:25am conforming my order with apple and that it is being processed. That same morning I had a 1 dollar charge and the NEXT tax accessed to my CC as a pending charge (still on my CC today)

I'm still stuck at processing as of today with a delivery of this Friday 9/19 for a 64GB Space Grey Plus.

I did some digging around yesterday in other threads... and I saw a few people in AZ still mentioned they were stuck on processing and I think one person who just said West Coast who was still stuck on processing. I assume Apple already has a shipment of phones somewhere local to a big distribution hub which is why these people and I are stuck on processing. I live in Colorado...

Maybe it would help to see the state of delivery for those still stuck on the processing state to try to get a feel?

My iPhone is showing as preparing for dispatch, but my case is still processing, I ordered it a day after (couldn't justify the cost of the case at the time). ;) Delivery for the case is 17-19th with my iPhone to be delivered on the 19th, hopefully.

Your iPhones fell of the plane, sorry.

I ordered my 6+ at 3:30AM, my 6 at 7:30. The 6+ is still processing, while the 6 is preparing for shipment. Both are scheduled to arrive on the 19th.
