Just ordered the 6 last night. Delivery date said Oct. 16-21st. It says Preparing to Ship, unable to cancel.

Having second thoughts since reading about the horror stories about it bending. Is it possible to return it at the Apple Store near me when I receive it, or do I have to call their support line and I have to ship it somewhere? I'm in Canada.

I will most likely order it later in a few months after the kinks are worked out. Also paid part of it with a gift card, don't know if that would be an issue when returning.

What is everyone entering on UPS for the reference? Just the phone number or are you also entering zip, destination country, etc.?

Just the phone number with area code. Make sure you are in the "track by reference" field.

iPhone 6 Plus -- Gold 16GB

- Ordered it on Sept 12th
- Originally projected dates: Delivers: Oct 13 - Oct 20
- 9/25 my card was charged and status changed to preparing for shipment.
- 9/26 = SHIPPED -- @ 10:30 am CST I got an email about my UPS tracking number.

I'm so excited. I'm going on a trip on the 13th and figured I wouldn't get to take the phone with me. Now it looks like I will be able to.

Exact same info for me - got the shipping notice this morning. I ordered a 128 GB 6+ VZ from Apple at 3:30 a.m. on Sept. 12. Had the delivery date as Oct. 13-20. YAY!!!
 
I ordered my Verizon iPhone 6+, 128 GB, Gold on 9/18/14. Status just updated to "Preparing for Shipment" this morning. I was originally scheduled for the 10/17-10/24 group. Any ideas on how long it takes to go from "Preparing..." to "Shipped."? :)

About 24 hours to shipped, then about another 24 hours to actually see it at UPS.
 
You will not see a delivery date in UPS for a day or so. There are a few scans you will see while it is still being processed and then once UPS scans it the delivery date shows. Delivery date showed up when the 9/26 scan hit. I received shipment email on 9/25.

So it is about 6 days from shipment email to delivery if that helps everyone.

I ordered from ATT on the 19th- 6+ 64 SG with a delivery date of 11/9-11/27, and mine has shown as "preparing to ship" for 5 days now. Can I hope against hope that the preparing to ship overrides the projected delivery dates? And that it will be here sooner than November ##

What...the..hell.

Why does it seem like everybody after me here is getting it BEFORE me?
