Probably coming from China.
 
My bank did not authorise the payment initially. Now it's been authorised and payment has been taken but it still says processing items. I'm supposed to be getting delivery on the 16th.
 
All 4 my iphone are charged and 2 are preparing shipping with delivery by 9/14 and 9/15 ( they are 7 plus rose gold 128gb) and my 2 blacks 7 plus 128gb are shipping by 09/23/2016 To 09/30/2016 for bothm

mine says delivers Sept 16 by standard shipping but its still processing and not charged!!!
wtfffffff :(
7 Rose Gold 128gb

Its nothing to worry about, dont let these threads make you feel like something is wrong, everyone status change at different times, most people are still processing. Nothing to get all worked up about. This happens EVERY YEAR....
 
What's the point? No matter how fast it is, it'll only be delivered on launch the soonest

the fact that some people's orders are already in the prepping for shipping state just bugss me and making me nervous whats going on with my orderrrrrrrr :(
 
Im more curious how many peoples card was already charged.

That was what surprised me because other years it happened like half a week later.

Probably because I used Apple Pay

no i used att premier buss site. (key in everything by hand...) so regular credit card.
 
I've been charged a few hours ago and my order is now preparing for dispatch. Slightly surprised, this normally happens just a few days before arrival. Maybe Apple need the cash

Don't seem to have a phone assigned yet though, no new device on my support profile as yet...

Exactly....Sheesh I hate seeing these threads.....

Literally, what else am I gonna do from now until the 16th to pass the time. Reverse engineering shipping trajectories via forum comments/data is all there is to do for the next few days. Can't really focus on anything else till next week anyway.

we may get ours straight from china.. rather than middle hub which gets everything in and then manually ship to your house. since i have seen few cases back 6 plus they received straight from china

You may well be right, being in the UK it'd be something new for me. I never had any Apple preorders come straight from China. They usually come from a central UPS hub. I hope this won't mean that it doesn't come with UPS...
