If they ship it on Nov 3rd, I wont get it until at least Monday Nov 6th.
If they ship it before the 3rd, it might arrive on the 3rd?
So big difference
. They ship with Canada Post.Our wonderful carriers are very useful and only able to tell me the order has been sent to the warehouse and they will ship it when ready.
Carriers are allowed to ship it so YOU get your device on the 3rd, yes. They aren't allowed to ship it so it arrives before launch day (but, sometimes mistakes happen).If they ship it on Nov 3rd, I wont get it until at least Monday Nov 6th.

I'm in the Nov.3 in store pickup group. CC got charged yesterday evening, but still processing order... emm
Hey Bill. Pretty sure that your order status won't change to "Ready for Pickup" until they scan the device into inventory in the store. That may not be until Thursday night or even Friday morning (thinking more likely, they'll do that Thursday though). Heh. Might just see you there Friday.

Preorders started on September 9th last year.
Thanks! Wondering why they are skipping the "Shipping to Store" status though lolHey Bill.

Yep, we haven't seen anyone get a tracking update that the shipments have left China yet. Peoples cards have been charged though, so that's a pretty good indication it will be soon.

Well, that's going to be pretty hard to predict. The store stock may already be sitting in their distribution centre in Harrisburg, PA. (have to remember that Foxconn's already been making the iPhone X for several weeks now).
Yeah, my card was charged almost immediately after I placed my order. Hoping to see movement soon.
I don't think we will see much, if any, bumpage until after release day. Because that is when many who are disgruntled with their ship dates will queue up outside an apple store for release day walk in phones, and then end up cancelling their preorders once they get their hands on one.
Well, that's my plan anyways. -12 temps be damned.
You can do a reference search on UPS. Try two different ones. The phone number associated with your order, then another one using your order number, less the last two digits. You have to enter your country and postal code. Also have to manually change the date range so it includes November 3rd.
I’m in the 2-3 week group so this makes me somewhat optimistic. I figured it may come a little earlier but a next week delivery would be amazing.
That's interesting. Every iPhone I've ordered has always come straight from China to my front door. I've never had it come from anywhere else.
Provided you're not in Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge, I say go for it!
I am from Vancouver BC
Lots of rich people here who have huge purchasing power
Huh? ProcessingLIMBO was referring to the 14 day return policy to make up their mind whether they keep the X or not.
Me, I'd rather people cancel their order before they receive it if they're on the fence (that way someone else that's waiting may actually get their device early) - as opened returns just end up in warranty stock.

Heh...doesn't take huge purchasing power to buy a phone.
Quoted the wrong part. I meant to quote the part about shipments coming from Pennsylvania as Foxconn has been building iPhones for a while now.
You guys are lucky to have an Apple store near you. I live in Windsor so the closest one is London. I will just scour the instore pickups and make a day of t if I am lucky to stumble upon one
Yeah - I think the bulk of those have gone to distribution centres, waiting to stock the stores. We've seen a few people in the US have them allocated to their orders. (several Verizon customers if memory's correct).
Apple would want to minimize changes for a lot of people used to pre-ordering....they get confused and then call Apple Support....all those calls cost $$$.

Umm. Isn't your closest one Detroit?
Ah...that's right...they don't have unlocked phones down there yet. Craptastic!!Yeah - I think the bulk of those have gone to distribution centres, waiting to stock the stores. We've seen a few people in the US have them allocated to their orders. (several Verizon customers if memory's correct).

That makes sense and why every phone I’ve order in the past came from China. I won’t expect anything different this year!
I wonder if part of the reason Canadian orders haven’t shipped yet is because there are only a handful of major cities they need to be shipped to in most cases, reducing transit time.
Nope, the Americans waiting to ship haven't yet either. All of you 11/3 folks (thus far) are on the same plane. Even the UK folks.
You can tell because normally everyones cards are charged just before they're shipped - and there's been a lot of that, starting this morning.
Honestly, I'm surprised the plane hasn't left yet....typically, it doesn't take them the better part of a day to fill a plane.
Anywho....just like getting your car washed usually makes it rain, I gotta run out, so I'm guessing the tracking updates will happen the second I leave.
