I just got my tracking information by logging into my UPS account. I couldn't get it to find it via reference. However, as soon as I logged into my account it shows the phone.

Arrived - ZhengZhou, China, Tuesday, 09/16/2014

The plus model dates pushed out so fast. I think you would be incredible fortunate to get it early.

But you could always hit up the stores or authorized users.

Is Apple.com orders all coming from UPS or Fedex?

 

[Dave Felix]

go here supportprofile.apple.com

I went there, but only see my MBP

So mine is week 32 (August), that's not so good right? That means it was an earlier build so more chances of defect right?

 

[EJ8]

Wahoo! I was able to find my tracking number by looking up my cell on ups.com. The phone is in TN! Scheduled to arrive 9/19 via next day air.

How do you do this? Where exactly?

That'd be my worry but I'm just paranoid like that, def the earliest week I've seen.

I hate this, I really do. I dont think anyone is getting the iPhone 6 Plus in my area.

Have not seen a fedex apple order yet

Tracking mine. Somehow it reports as 2.00 lb.
not are exactly how.. I ordered 1 iPhone 6 and nothing else. Hmm

 

[Sandman1969]

After logging into my UPS account and seeing the information I was able to go back to another browser and search via reference. The tracking page I had showed several "By References"

One was my W Order number minus the last two numbers.
One was my AT&T account main phone number without any dashes. The phone number on the account I am upgrading did not work as a By Reference search.


The other reference options I had no idea what they were and must be internal to UPS.

Pretty sure this is where the billing information was received. both of mine say the same thing. I don't think its left china yet.. Hopefully on a plane but just missed a scan

I am from Atlanta, I ordered on the 12th from the Apple App, at about 12:24 Pacific time, 128 GB Silver 6+ AT&T, shows 9/19 delivery date. Order went from processing to preparing for shipment on Saturday, but nothing since. It is not in my Support Profile, nothing on UPS or FedEx. Has anyone else in this area been stuck on preparing for shipment since Saturday?

Same deal as you, I live near Perimeter Mall in Atlanta, ordered 2 64 GB pluses for Verizon, Order went from processing to preparing for shipment on Saturday, but nothing since. It is not in my Support Profile, nothing on UPS or FedEx. I ordered the mini with Retina via Apple.com last year, and it was shipped via FedEx.

 

[Sandman1969]

How do you do this? Where exactly?

Go to UPS.com. Click Tracking up top and then select the Track by Reference and enter the information in Shipment Reference Field.

I used my AT&T Account's main phone number, and/or my Apple Order number minus the last two digits.

How can you check the manufacturing date of your device?

Read a few pages and you'll see. Also think the info is in the OP.

Last year I was able to get on waiting list at Target. That worked out well for everyone on the top of the list. Might be worth a try.

Looks like UPS so far

That's funny, I didn't even think to log in to my UPS account until I read your post. I had found my tracking by reference number, but as soon as I logged in both my packages popped right up. In all the excitement, I let that completely slip my mind.

It appears that two ups flights departed Hong Kong last night (hong kong time) and will be in Anchorage later this afternoon (AK time). I would expect to see some updates after that for all of us still showing our phones in zhengzhou.

The pending transaction on my credit card is now processed as a sale.

Ditto everything here and the guy you quoted. I'm in Gwinnett county.

I'm just assuming they're somewhere regional (maybe TN?) and will start moving either tomorrow or Thursday for an overnight shipment.

I already ordered through Apple, I'll just wait.
