It’s most certainly the case.
It was legit. I did get my iphone 15 pro max today. So the label was created to be shipped out for real. No bs.

I also have a estimated to ship: Fri., September 22, 2023 - Fri., October 6, 2023 date for a 512GB - White Titanium. Is there something with the White phones were they aren't shipping as fast? Mine is still stuck in the pre-orded status and I ordered on the 15th.
 
I just spent 3 hours on the phone, talked to 5 different people and finally got them to process this same thing. Marked as stolen even though fedex never received it and they processed a reorder with expedited shipping for this Friday. We will see if it actually arrives this time.
I now have a ship confirmation from ATT and FedEx saying they received the package and it will deliver tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

My replacement order is in the "ready to ship" stage. Do you still see your original order in your orders page? I was told they cancelled it but I still see it.

It turned out the White color was very popular this year. Your Order showed an estimated to ship: Fri., September 22, 2023 - Fri., October 6, 2023 date. That indicates that it was not allocated from the initial bulk Launch Day batches that AT&T received from Apple on or before Thursday 9/21.

Was mentioned in here earlier that you could take AT&T trade in device back to Apple. They turned me away tonight and said send back with the kit (that I don’t have) if I carrier financed (non-Next) because they “didn’t want to mess it up.” Multiple people said it. Just an FYI.

I may try AT&T store tomorrow. Don’t like sending back via shipping.

Thanks for sharing your experience at your local Apple store. On the Apple Pre Order thread there have been a few reports that their local Apple store has even refused to accept Apple Trade-in units if the customer ordered from Apple for delivery vs in-store pickup. The Apple reps did not appear to know how to process the "return".

Let us know how it goes at the AT&T Store.

Same boat here, not wanting to ship this phone, would rather hand it over to an in person employee.

I haven’t looked at it nor do I want to. I am told I will get reimbursed the tax on my next bill and that will be the end of that saga.

I still have concerns whether or not the originally processed trade-in will still attach to the replacement phone as they told me to retain the original shipping label.

Had no idea the white color was so popular! Would have thought natural would have outsold it. Also thank you indicating which allotment it is in At&t hasn't been much help. Fingers crossed it ships soon.

Just ordered an IPhone 15 Pro Natural Titanium for my daughter yesterday and it’s already shipped today with UPS and arriving tomorrow. Not bad. Wasn’t expecting anything til October.

Must be nice. They decided to ship mine FedEx like always and I still have yet to receive it and I know I will not. I ordered mine on 9/15 as soon as orders opened. It’s ridiculous

That’s insane but awesome. I ordered mine last Thursday and last Saturday, two iPhone 14 pro max models, both 1TB (blue titanium and black titanium). My delivery shows October 12 through the 26th. I figured these higher capacity iPhones would be less popular and ship sooner but apparently not.

The iPhone 15 Pro Max high capacity units are less popular but Apple also builds fewer of these configurations. Also there were issues as Foxconn ramped up mass production of the Max units.

I pre ordered pro max in blue on the 18th and still says working on order with ship date 9/25-10/09. But it sent me the money for the sales tax back this morning the order still says the same thing. Anyone else have this happen?

Now that I’m looking at it I think they returned mine as well, I do not see it on credit card transactions anymore.
