Mine is the same. My guess is they're sitting on a pallet somewhere and the UPS truck hasn't come to actually pick them up yet. That will likely happen tonight and then they'll move to the local distribution centres to be put on delivery trucks tomorrow.
One more time girls. UPS headquarters is in Burlington (you know, where your phones are?) So, it's a pretty short trip for them to be loaded on a truck.

Oh good. I’m about 2 hours from Burlington Ontario. Yay!
I stopped a long time ago. I knew Canada would get the short end of the stick. There was only so much launch stock that were going to be allocated to us. I just didn't expect the next available date to extend a full month, not to mention that a select few got Nov 14-21 somehow (despite having their order in at the same time or a minute after mine), and were moved to 11/3. I'm still not in full salty mode yet, but for sure if we don't get any kind of update by saturday morning, and i fail to reserve a device = saltyx1000000
Well, the jury's still out on whether they've been sorted yet or not (as they didn't start the tracking until the other day). They may still need to go to Concorde to be broken up into regional shipments (but the trip to Concorde takes what, about 40 minutes?)
That should happen shortly (if it's going to). Otherwise people elsewhere should start seeing scans from Mount Hope (Hamilton airport).

IN store? You jest! Anyone lining up (for walk-in) will be out in the cold, freezing rain.
I feel like the 11/14 - 11/21 people were in the same boat as the 11/10 US people. They all got bumped to the third. There didn't seem to be many in Canada at all in that group.
The 11/17 - 11/24 US Group is the same as our 11/21(20)-11/28(27) group. I'm not sure why Canada is listed as a few days behind but I think we are all part of the same distribution overall. In Canada we don't have to worry about IUP taking priority so when we see our bump we don't have to worry about them. So if US 11/17 - 11/24, mostly IUP, are seeing their orders bumped to next week maybe the Canadian, non-IUP, equivalent will see some movement soon. Hopefully tonight.
I remember looking at last year's thread and for the Jet Black 7+ the bump came on what would be the equivalent of this Saturday (in terms of an update), with the phones being delivered by the end of the following week (what would be Nov 10th in todays terms). If that's the case, I certainly don't mind another week wait. But 3-4 weeks as of yesterday based on the current estimate seems like a really long time for a phone that I've been waiting for since 2016.
Heh....that'll be my luck. Going to line up if it isn't a crazy number of people. Going through that, then the order would have been fulfilled by the 10th anyway?
Par for the course.Hope to see that bump happen. Otherwise I will be playing the Apple reserve game and monitoring store stock starting Saturday morning. I think either way I will have the phone by the end of next week, which I'm good with.
You reply to me as if I'm panicking. I believe our two posts were in agreement with each other. I have no doubt Apple and UPS know what they are doing. This isn't their first rodeo.
For me there's no way I could line up even if I wanted to. So for me it's either I get lucky and catch a reservation Saturday or I'm stuck at the mercy of Apple's delivery schedule. I not only really want, the phone, i need a new one ASAP (my 6+ is on its last legs: touch disease, bends like crazy really easily, dead pixels, dents/scratches all over the side housing, randomly shuts off and wont turn back on unless plugged in, battery randomly will go from 25% to 10% to 2% in a matter of minutes etc.). The difference between a week and 3-4 weeks is huge for me, but not enough for me to line up or pay a scalper.Heh....that'll be my luck. Going to line up if it isn't a crazy number of people. Going through that, then the order would have been fulfilled by the 10th anyway?
Heh...k. The "sitting on a pallet somewhere" comment made me lump you in with the others.
The website while I am sitting at my desk at work. The app if I am away from my desk. I will check at least once an hour.
Well I'm not wrong though, right?
I'll admit I'm a bit excited, but not enough to call Apple or UPS for that matter. And I can wait for them to deliver it vs going to the UPS location to pick it up. All in due time!
How did you get a delivery schedule? Ive been harassing UPS to tell me between what hours it will be delivered and they wont committ to anything other than by the end of the day (7pm)
Tried using my choice but i just signed up for it and need the activation code which I wont get before Friday as it is mailed to you.
The people calling UPS and Apple really are enough to drive you to drink. I don't know what they think they're doing (other than helping drive up the cost of the next phone!!!)

how is that possible? where do you live?
on my end i saw it as being Nov 3 until around 12:05 pacific.
did your app crash halfway through?
Not at all. I submitted my order by XX:06 and received my confirmation at XX:06. When I got the immediate confirmation after the order was placed it said 11/3. 30 seconds later i get the email and it says Nov 21-28. App didn't crash, I just wasn't able to get in until 3:05am. I put the order in pretty quick though, probably took me only 40 seconds. I live in Mississauga, Ontario. I'm starting to think I should have used LTE instead of wifi, i think it made a difference for me. My internet is not strong at all compared to what others have in the GTA.
Waited until Monday to pre-order mine, and have been stuck on a Dec 13 — 20 delivery time, hoping for improvements but not losing sleep over it. It is what it is, will have a shiny new phone by Christmas!
