I got tired of seeing my order that was placed on the 13th still showing 3-4weeks with an estimated delivery date between oct12 and 19. So today I cancel them both and tried the online reservation and got lucky. I was able to get an AT&T SG 128gb and a RG 128gb. I wanted 2 SG but I guess my wife gonna have to settle for the RG one.
Not sure why more people aren't trying that if they have an Apple store near them.
 
I ordered the 30 band model in Space Gray on Tuesday 9/29. The original arrival date was to be 10/12 but it is now scheduled to arrive today, less than a week from the order date...:eek:
 
So I returned my preordered silver 64gb at my local Apple Store. Since I picked up my preorder on the 25th I had the box and everything else in the car. I happen to be near the store so I stopped by and asked if they had a 128gb in silver. They did. So I returned the 64gb and got the 128gb. Nice thing was I only payed the difference instead of them returning my money to the card which would of taken 2-3days and charge me the whole amount.

I'm happy now, I feel like I don't have to hold back on anything I put on my phone
 
Ordered my 6s+ 25/9 in case there were any launch day errors (see Bendgate) and until yesterday evening my delivery was Oct 23-30 with a dispatch of 3-4 weeks. However it changed 24 hrs ago to Oct 9-16 with a dispatch of 1-2 weeks. I've been refreshing all day! Is it normal that it still says processing? I just want to see it get to prepare for shipment, i'll be refreshing all day tomorrow aswell.

Very similar to my situation.

Ordered my SG 64GB Plus on Sunday 27th September. Within 24hrs went from est delivery 3-4 weeks , to 1-2 weeks & est delivery 9-16th October. Has been in this Processing stage for over a week now & I'm checking 2-3 times a day & refreshing hoping to see a change.

UK based.

Cheers

Ordered my 128GB Space Grey Plus on the 24th, same story with the delivery changing to the 9th-16th as well shortly after ordering, can't wait as I'm currently without a phone :(

also in the UK
 
Last year, there were sites that showed you Target and Best Buy stock.
What happened to them?
Apple Store stock is the last one I need, you can do that from their website already.
Not sure. Looks like istock is not tracking Target and Best Buy this year .
 
Got my tracking number from Apple today! Was originally scheduled for delivery 10/12-10/19 now scheduled for 10/9 via email from Apple, but when I look at the tracking from UPS it says by end of day on 10/8!!!! I ordered my rose gold iPhone 6s Plus on 9/12 in the am. :)
 
I ordered on Oct 5 a 6S+ RG 64GB and it gave me a delivery of November 5-9.
Today I randomly checked Apple's stock and it seem they received a shipment, so I made an reservation, cancelled my online order, and went in and picked it up. I was out in 10 minutes.
I don't think I will ever order online anymore.
 
Ordered 6s Plus 64GB on 27th September with est delivery on 9-16th October.

Changed to Preparing to dispatch this morning. UK based

Same thing happened here! My order details are a few posts back, very very similar. Hopefully this means that it will arrive within the next few days, or even more hopefully that this is a case of the day-before-arrival shipment notification that so many people have talked about in the past

Once it goes to preparing for shipment you should be able to find your tracking number by searching ups by reference.

Use your billing phone number to find your tracking details.

Oh! Does this work in the UK? I can't seem to find a search by phone number option in the 'Track by Reference'.. Only a required 'Shipping Reference' field. Thanks!

On the ups page under track by reference, you can put the phone number in the shipment reference field.

You will have to fill out the shipment dates and the country to get to you tracking number.

Here are some notes to help track orders:

Apple will automatically add your phone with it's serial number in your support profile. You can see it here:
https://supportprofile.apple.com/

You can look up the week of manufacture and factory here: http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.htmlor

Hmm. I don't seem to be getting any results when I put my billing phone number in and fill out the fields. I think this is probably limited to the US?

Seems like it should work in UK too.

It might not be in the UPS system. I would try by order number minus the last 2 characters.

Not sure ,but are all phones delivered by UPS in the UK?

I wouldn't know personally since this is my first phone that I've had delivered. I see the vans sometimes around here but just as frequently as DHL vans.

I've tried everything on there, perhaps it just isn't showing up because it hasn't been assigned anything yet. After all, it only switched to preparing to dispatch today. I'm just eager to check on it's progress somehow.

My phone isn't in My Support Profile yet either, which is peculiar.
 
Been checking Apple's stock very often these past two days. It's strange to me, because Rose Gold is supposedly the most ordered colorway, but it's everywhere I look, in at least one size.
 
Planning on ordering a Space Gray 64GB + AT&T through Apple.com. For people that ordered recently, how long did it take to actually ship out? Thanks!

My estimate was 2-3 weeks when I ordered on Sept. 30. Is it supposed to change as it gets closer on my orders detail page (1-2 weeks, 5-7 days, etc.)?

Also, does anyone know if I find one at 8am at a store if I would have time to cancel with ATT and reset Next eligibility prior to pickup?
