Yeah about that many days from order to end if you order a 16gb. If people on 9/23 are getting shipment dates now that makes it around 4 weeks. I ordered phones on 10/1 and I have a week to go before my orders go off of BO.

Figured. I ordered mine 10/11. I didn't think I'd see it until early November. Thanks!

Man I wish my 1st 5 worked :(
 
Ahhh, I feel like I'm so close yet so far. 9/30 black 16gb. At this pace, mine should come off BO early next week but who knows if this pace will continue...
 
So about how long (not business days) are we looking at about on average from order date to ship date?

21-28 days total?

we were told 21-28 business days. black 16gb was 19 days and white 16gb will be 21 or 22. (hoping for 21 because that's today). :)
 
I feel the same way. So close yet so far away.

Any 9/26 orders come of BO?

I am 9/26 ordered 1 16GB Black & 1 16GB White.
Shipping dates given were 14-21 business days (10/16-10/24).

I want a phone back its been 6 weeks since I sold my 4s lol

Latest I've seen for 16gb is 9/24. But if this trend continues, should see some more 9/24 and some 9/25 today. You're very close!
 
UPS truck JUST pulled up to my driveway............. and dropped off a package across the street..... no iphone.


TORTURE!
 
Still waiting on my phone, still backordered. Ah this wait is torture! Lol, 16gb WHT iPhone, ordered 9/23

It's gonna happen soon. I ordered 9/22 and it went from BO to shipped within a matter of hours. I'd bet it happens tonight or this weekend.

Ugh. I'm half watching TV and half listening for diesel engines. COME ON FEDEX
 
If is by UPS. I think they will deliver it tommorrow. If not they will hold it on your local UPS facility and you can pick it up there.

It's confirmed that UPS won't ship on Saturdays... For the white i got shipping info at 1am and now it says it will arrive on Monday.

AT&T 32gb black ordered 9/30, still on backorder as of this afternoon.

Now GET THIS, placed an order for a 32gb white for my wife this past Tuesday, 10/16 (Verizon site), and I just got the tracking number today! According to Fedex it will be delivered this Tuesday the 23rd. WTF. I could be wrong, but I assumed that the VZW iPhone 5's were just as backordered as all the other carriers..?
 
9/25 black 16gb (and one white 16gb) are coming off back order. I saw on another forum. Slowly but surely...

Well it doesn't seem that way. AT&T has more iPhone users than other carriers, so you'd think Apple would give them way more. But it doesn't seem like they are since they have way more stock than AT&T.
 
Just checked the last few replies in the "Verizon Pre-Order Thread" and it does look like a lot of people are getting their iPhones pretty quick. The VZW 16gb models are slower to ship, but the 32/64 models are shipping pretty quickly (within a week). Just FYI...

Anyone know an average wait time for a 32 black?

Still 3-4 weeks it seems. Hope you're patient. By the way, your screen name is terribly painful to read.
 
My iPhone just got off BO!! The relief feels good! Lol, I'll keep you guys updated as soon as I get shipping info.
Ordered WHT 16GB on 9/23
Got off backorder around 12 to 2 pm Eastern Time on 10/19
 
iphone 5 maybe

so im going to be either breaking down and ordering my white 32 today idk from who yet, or hopefully a friend of the family that works at best buy can give me some good news, i feel like i should have went to my apple store and actually made them check for an att iphone 5 but eh, wishing for the best :)
