I just picked mine up from the UPS facility...It is absolutely 100% worth the wait, guys. It looks like they're coming quicker than the 1 month I waited for mine, so I hope all of you get them ASAP.
 
Mine says it just left China also but will still
Be delivered bye end of the day here. Doubt it now. Hoping I get it MONDAY now
 
Just picked mine up in Cedar Rapids about an hour ago. Kinda scary how fast it got here, :D my phone was in Korea less than 24 hours ago.

Surprisingly, comes with 8.0.2 installed so I have to install the update to 8.1 before I can restore my backup from iCloud.

Best of luck to the rest of you!

Last day
 
Mine is still in Shanghai as well, with only the 11:45PM Arrival Scan as the last entry. What's going on??? It's just been sitting there since Wednesday? :mad:


One of the biggest differences is some paid for expedited and some didn't. The ones who paid extra shipping have finally left Shanghai, but it is almost a moot point bc it is Friday and nothing will happen until next week and yours will leave and be delivered probably around the same time as the expedited orders. Probably get delivered a day later or thereabouts.
 
So my phone even though it says will be delivered today will not be since I paid for extra shopping? It's not just a scan error?
 
Just got my departure scan from Shanghai. I didn't pay for faster shipping. I wouldn't worry if it doesn't update immediately. Mine JUST did. I refreshed it a minute ago and it wasn't there.
 
I just got a departure scan from Shanghai at 9:25 pm, my last scan was the 11:45 on 10/29. I didn't pay for expedited and my delivery is still set for 11/04, so possibly Monday 11/3 delivery along with the others
 
I paid the $10 and mine still says "Pkg Shipped" from yesterday. No departure scan today


Yeah this is very weird. Multiples departure times from Shanghai with some getting their 10/31 delivery back and others not. I sure didn't and there is no way it will come today if it just left. The extra money for shipping apparently didn't speed it up, in the end.

Mine left Shanghai at 8:52pm 10-31 and says it be drelieved by end of the day today? How the hell will it make it here on time? I'm hoping it meant 8:52am

I agree. That's why I'm a little mad that paying extra for shipping pretty much resulted in me giving away $10 and I don't donate to rich companies. Lol

Thanks for the input but maybe I should have elaborated, I did pay the extra $10 for expedited shipping. If I'm not mistaken, there are some folks who are in the same boat as me as far as being stuck at the 11:45PM Shanghai scan. I just don't understand why it would just sit there as of Wednesday. Doesn't UPS run 24/7?

** Just edited this post and it looks like I also have the 10/31 9:25PM Departure Scan ** Damn I was really hoping there was a just a really late scan.

Yea I checked 10 min ago and I had no departure scan. JUST NOW it is showing my departure scan from Shanghai at 9:25.

That 8:52PM is China time. Right now it's close to 11:30PM in Shanghai. When it arrives, it'll show an earlier time for Anchorage's time. But it's like a 7 hour trip just to get to Anchorage.... It's not possible to get it today.

I'd call apple and demand that $10 back. That's almost 1/3 of the :apple: leather case!! I've heard they're pretty cool about it given the supply shortage issues. I just found out I'm on the 9:45PM Shanghai departure scan. Any ideas on what flight I'm on?
