They want our phones to experience all the wonders of the world before getting to us
I've been buying and selling things online since the very early days of eBay and I've never gotten anything early from UPS. Maybe it's a hell of a string of poor luck but I've seen them, quite a lot of times, get ahead of schedule then just sit on the package until the last moment even if it's just a few hours away.
Also not uncommon is for them to sit on it then screw up and wind up having to delay it.
USPS is the only postal service I actually like. I frequently get items ahead of schedule with them, and I live in a fairly small city.
(FedEx, judging by the amount of package damage from both sent and received parcels, seems to use cannons instead of planes for travel, so I try to avoid them altogether.)
Anyway, mine updated as well, to the 27th. Live in WA state.

Mine is now showing:
CLEARED CUSTOMS. Scheduled delivery - Friday 9/27 by end of day. (At least it’s this week!)

Still in Hong Kong, but UPS estimate has moved to Friday-27 (it had been Thurs-26). Apple says Monday.
I ordered an 256gb Space Gray 11 Pro as soon as the store came online, and my confirmation email is timestamped 5:05am. I've always pre-ordered before: (4) 3gs, (4) 4s, (4) 5s, and (2) 6s; got every one of them on launch day. Apple either made a huge miscalculation on pre-order demand this year, or they are intentionally pushing people to the retail stores for future launches. No point in pre-ordering in wee hours of morning any more if there's going to be a 1-2 week delay vs. going to the retail store!

You guys are my support group. I literally want to scream and go crazy. Knowing you guys share my agony, gives me a small bit of relief. I love you guys.
Mine still says 9/30 on the Apple Page and no delivery date on UPS, not sure if mine is glitched or I just cant figure out how to get UPS to show a delivery date.
No delivery date on the tracking page for me, but the My Choice page shows it as Sep. 27 now (it previously showed the 26th). No message about customs in my detail log either. Who knows.
Got moved from a delivery date of Thursday to Friday. Can I sue now?
Yeah it's definitely class-action lawsuit time
Yes, it definitely went from Louisville back to Hong Kong. Or there could be a much more logical explanation that I previously posted in this thread.
Also, nobody in this thread cares that you already got your phone so repeatedly posting in this thread just to point it out is getting really annoying.
Finally got this on my UPS page. Should I trust this over the Apple page?
