Everyone stop freaking. If you follow this thread you'll see that nearly everyone gets their phone on the estimated delivery date that shows on the ups tracker. Even after they freak out about it sitting in China Or Korea for a few days.

You won't get it earlier. Save your self some stress and don't think about it til the date ups says it'll be there.
Such a no bull **** psychiatrist..lol
 
Everyone else with the Shanghai ordeal, my phone just had an arrival in Anchorage! A little sooner than expected, no?

Yeah, I don't understand it. On the AT&T thread people are foaming at the mouth because their phone hasn't shipped two weeks before AT&T said it would ship at the time of purchase.

Mine just arrived there to and no, not sooner than expected for me. I have no expectations until 10/27 - 10/29 when it will be delivered to me. I don't mean to be a jerk but what happens until then is interesting but not good nor bad.

No, just as I told you. It's gonna be on time and okay.

Seems to have a weird tracking bug where it says it goes back and forth sometimes even though it doesn't. Some suggest something to do with customs.

No it's not as you "told me". The flight that we assumed it was on because our departure times matches up with its departure time isn't set to arrive in Anchorage for quite some time. Hence, the packages arriving sooner than I expected.
 
Not freaking out, more curious why it would have gone from china to korea and back to china. I'm a curious guy. If UPS could answer that question for me I'd gladly wait another week for my phone :)

and yeah mine just popped up in alaska also. interesting :)

I don't mean the delivery date being sooner than normal, I know mine will make its date, I live close to Louisville. I'm saying the time it arrived in Anchorage is sooner than expected. Myself and a few other posters noted earlier than it looked like our phones would be on UPS85, which has not landed yet.
 
Quick question, has anyone else's phone been sitting in ZhengZhou since Friday, my phone had an arrival scan at 7:45pm and has not been updated since. Just curious as UPS says it should be delivered on the 28th, but if its still in China will it make it here by Tuesday.

my phone is in the same scenario... personally I believe that the tracking won't get updated until Monday... so, based on everyone else's experiences, u should have your phone by the end of business on Tuesday 10/28 (mine is being delivered that day too)

After all this transit weirdness, my tracking was just updated to Louisville. Still no delivery date but I'm sure I'll have my phone by Tuesday, the 28th. Hang in there my palette brothers and sisters!!

I'm right there with you. At this point, I think we'll head on the usual M-F UPS99 flight that'll leave early tomorrow AM our time and be in Louisville by just past midnight Monday, giving them plenty of time to deliver our phones by end of business Wednesday.
