After reading your post again, looks like you ordered the 6, I ordered the 6plus/128GB/SG at 7AM Central. So its possible I will have a longer wait time 🙁
Got a tip for us?

Yeah I would assume the Plus will take a bit longer. Hey, still better than my previous order that I did on the 12th with ATT. I had ordered a plus 64GB SG on the 12th at 11:40AM CST and my est date was 11/9-11/27 lmao. NOPE. Cancelled that crap, went with the regular 6 through Apple instead.

Picked my 6+ up from UPS this morning, ordered from Apple app on 9/12 ~3:45am EDT, estimated Oct 1- Oct 6 delivery.
For those waiting, mine went to "Preparing to ship" on Thursday 9/18 and the actual cost (not the $1 hold) showed up as a pending charge on my Amex that same day. The phone "shipped" on Friday 9/19 but Amex shows the charge on 9/20. The phone sat in China Sat thru Sun, then made the slow trip to NJ. So it left China Friday, arrived on Wednesday, so like 4 business days for shipping.
My iPhone 5 came much quicker 2 years ago, but it was promised delivery on launch date, and it at my door that day. I think any delivery date after launch date is going into the normal UPS shipping queue/routing, so the packages may sit/take a less direct route if UPS has other packages with a higher priority.

Same here, stuck in Louisville since with arrival scan 9/23 and no import scan yet either, so it hasn't even went thru Customs yet. Expected delivery still 9/25, we'll see.

I got the same date for the Plus via ATT's site. But I went to Apple's site and they gave me an Oct 15thish ship date.

Mine is in the same boat as you both. Arrived in KY at 1:34am on 9/23 and has not changed since, but is scheduled for delivery 9/25 between 9:15am and 1:15pm according to UPS. We shall see how that actually plays out by end of day today I guess...
We got a crowded boat cause I'm experiencing the same issue. Mine also got to Louisville yesterday at 1:34am with Arrival Scan as the last scan. Mine is also set to be delivered to Atlanta tomorrow (Thursday). I dunno why the guys in Louisville sat on their a** instead of getting these shipments out.

I'll chime in here. Ordered on 9/16 and had a delivery window of October 3-8. Sometime in the wee hours of this morning it went to "Preparing for Shipment" and that's where it stands now. Curious about shipping speed, hoping it goes out soon so I can see what method it's being sent.
Looks like it's going to ship well before the 7-10 business day window. That would have put me at shipping sometime between the 26th and the 30th.
I am in similar state. My iPhone 6 plus/128gb has been at Louisville, KY for over 24hrs without change. Says will deliver tomorrow by end of day in NYC. I hope so.

If I had testicles to cross, I'd cross them. I'll cross my tots in place of that. 😎
I did. 64GB Space Gray VZW 6.
Same here still stuck in Louisville . Last activity was arrival scan 1:34 arrival scan on the 23 . I'm really starting to get impatient , I was fine as long as it was moving now I'm freaking out.
they must be holding all the LOUISVILLE KY orders to process thru their hub today and must be shipping to everyone overnite. Just odd they wanted to hold them like they did.

My dad just retired from UPS in KY so he's somewhat familiar with Worldport operations. He said what they're doing is unusual, the norm would be for the shipments to leave Worldport early this morning via truck/plane, just depending on where they're going.
Let's keep those fingers crossed that we still get delivery tomorrow! 😕
My card was finally just charged!! My order is still "Processing" with a shipping window of 10/13 - 10/20. How long do I have to wait from this point?? Anyone have any idea?
