"Preparing for shipment" ... wtf
My beautiful, 128GB silver iPhone 6 Plus arrived today and I'm in love. Actually, I think it's pretty darn sturdy. Still, I have a case for it, but may get a better case when Otterbox gets cranking.
Just as a last ditch effort, I called UPS again to see why my package wasn't upgraded to a Saturday shipment since a number of people here got theirs.
Apparently UPS doesn't have the resources to do a Saturday shipment in my area. So, I'm stuck waiting for Monday.
What a debacle.

preparing to ship nightmare
I think that the reason that some of us have been in preparing to ship mode since Monday (Tuesday in China) is because Wed, Thur, Fri, and Sunday are all national holidays in China this week......so hopefully we will see some movement on Sunday afternoon (Monday morning in China)

It's nearly 6:00pm here and my iphone is still out for delivery. I'm starting to get worried.
I've had delivers as late as 8pm sometimes.
AT&T 64 SG Plus ordered day of around 7:30am est. Original window was Oct 13-20. Delivered today woo.

They do deliver late. i believe they deliver tip truck is empty. I have a ups friend and he says that's what he supposed to do.
Got my iPhone today! It arrived at noon my time (PDT). I loooooove it. Totally worth the wait. A-Team, thanks for helping me get through this ordeal. To the B- and Z- teams, hang in there. See you all in a couple years!!!!
Finally got my 6+ 64gb SG today around 230 central. I watched my phone all night sit with an import scan in Louisville. When I woke up today it magically appeared in Tulsa out for delivery. I guess u can't really rely on the tracking and what other people's phones have gone through.
so even chase got tired of waiting and dropped the pending charge, oh well, still preparing to ship.
Have none moved from Preparing to Ship to Shipped since Monday?
A lost week, ahhhhhh......
Same - damn holidays.....

Meh. I'll see can I get one in Reserve in a store tomorrow then - even if it means a 5 hour round trip, ugh. Looks like at least a week to ten days more for us all at this stage.
Last time I'll buy from Apple online.
gents, i've been suggested this by other thread members, and now family, just move on for now, it'll make its way, I promise, it will.

True, true - just ten days more lol !
My iPhone 6 Plus Delivery Experience
In my hands is my iPhone 6 Plus/128g - space grey! All is right in my world.
I thought I'd share my UPS tracking information to help those of you who are still waiting on your iPhones get a better idea of what you might experience.
It was a nail-biting, frustrating, yet very fun experience perusing the whole shipping process from China to my hands. But, all of us shared our experiences from start to finish for the last few days and bonded in the process. I really, really got a high off of tracking my phone all the way to my door. I hope you guys, at the end of your journey, find that you enjoyed it and made cool Macrumor friends along the way!
Well, enough already... Here is my tracking experience from start to finish. The best to all of you still waiting. And remember, there is no conspiracy going on... Just confusing logistics....
