UPDATE.......get the latest bulletin here.....They just took my money..........pending.........I guess phone will arrive later today.........boy, that Apple sure knows how to run a show.......time to set out the case and glass screen protector on a micro fiber towel, along with surgical gloves and an alcohol swab.........and a REAL TALL glass of Jackie D ...........lol

Looks like you have everything. Bourbon is the most important tool when installing a screen protector.

Why would it go to ONT? It should go Louisville like the other ones. Mine is stuck in INC since yesterday morning. I hope it’s just UPS taking too long to update. Doesn’t make any sense to be taking that long.

When did you get the email saying it was shipped? How long for the clearance out of ZhengZhou to you?
Preparing on Tuesday, despatch Mail today. This afternoon I could choose a hour delivery slot with the courier for tomorrow.
 
For those of you wondering about the Korean tour of your phones here is my tracking to let you know how my X now delivered traveled in time. My phone got to Incheon International Seol on the 3rd in evening. It sat for day and half while some phones left on the UPS99 flights, basically was roughly 36 hours in Korea. It did not even match the UPS numbers and times we had for the departure time to Anchorage. We finally found ours - -not all got sent on a Korean Air for flight to Anchorage roughly a 2 hour flight. We got no scan of departure or arrival on the 4th in Anchorage. I went to bed and morning of I got the departure data from Anchorage on evening of 4th, and the customs clearance at :51 in Louisville. Flight from Anchorage is 6-7 hours so that is about right before customs appeared. Later in morning I then got the arrival scan and import scan and finally departure from Louisville to Danville Illinois on Indiana border.

It is obvious to me that all the scans after Incheon South Korea did not even show til after arrival in Louisville. But we did see variable flights out of Korean on its local time from late on 3rd to all day on 4th til morning of 5th when it finally left Korean.None of the post Korea Scans in Anchorage or arrival in Louisville did not show til morning of 5th when it was there in Louisville and scans all caught up. This may be informative for your own cases with the wait in Korea and trying to figure out flights -- we had a hard time with that.

That’s what i think is going on with mine too. They’re not going to update the progress for awhile. It happened when i order the 7 plus last year.
 
MyiPhone still in South Korea, I hope I’ll see some movement tomorrow!! At least I got my cases today :) It’s crazy how small it is! Lol i guess it’s not that crazy, it’s just weird to me coming from a Plus! :D

Still waiting on my X, but I got my case from Apple second business day after pre order lol My silicone case appears to be barely bigger, than my current 6 with the silicone case on it, seems like a perfect size. Was always gonna get a plus the next go round.....until the X was rumored, then finally announced and I opted to wait for this instead. After playing with them in person I’m glad I waited, now just antsy to get out of order in progress hell lol

Im excited! I love the screen size in my plus, but sometimes the phone is just too big in my hands so I’m excited to have a smaller phone again.

Lol nooo, I put the black case in the wrong box :p:D

Yeah I feel like that was gonna be my thoughts on the plus, so I avoided it when they first went to the bigger phones. Then hearing about the X I was like that’s the one I’ve been waiting for finally.

Originally 11/17 - 11/24 but got bumped to 11/14 - 11/21 through Apple IUP program (First time) and still no CC charge or movement (Still OIP). I ordered from Apple website right when the site came up around 12:15am.

At this point, I think the phone is going to come closer to the 21st. Sad times

Order #: W590

I got my red case and my screen protector last week. I’m going to The store so they can install the screen protector I paid too much for at their online store.
 
I wish folks would list when their credit card got hit in relation to the OIP dissolving.
Apple charged my card (paid in full) 2.5 days ago and no movement.

I'm about giving up checking and getting 'over it' all. I'm not even sure I'm going to be able to deal going down from a Plus to an X with the smaller screen. If/when it shows up - it shows up.

So, an apple rep called me to confirm my order and to continue to process it? Anyone else experience this? I find it strange
 
My iPhone X is stuck in Incheon too.
Incheon, Korea, Republic of 11/07/2017 7:52 P.M. Arrival Scan
I can see my order status in Apple.com and there is a Shipment In Transit - Delayed.
Is it why no change on the UPS?

Most likely a stupid idea, but I will just throw it out there and see what people think:

I honestly think that the people in this thread, as one, should draft an email and send it off to Tim Cook and company. Whoever wants to add their name to it can, and if you do not want to, you do not have to. I would honestly love to see how Tim Cook and Apple would respond to an email with say a few hundred signatures or more (I do not know how many people are part of this thread) because they can give us individually the "sorry 101" gig, however, I think they might respond a little differently to a very direct, stern letter letting them know how bad of an experience this has been since pre-order night, until now, and for some of us unfortunately well into the future. When people who ordered well after us, or originally had December ship dates but received their iPhone X's before us, to the hold on a CC for days with no movement, and all the other problems. I would just be curious how they would react to something like that.

No. Notice that was 2 days ago when it was still in China during the clearing process. On the 7th it says “In Transit”

They did the same thing to me. They called on Sunday. About an hour later my CC got charged and my order moved to Preparting to ship. Monday morning it moved to shipped and now it’s in Icheon. So if they called, your order should start moving soon. I had to switch the CC to find my IUP last week and that was why they called to confirm.

Am in the same situation with Inf4life. UPS, though, still showing delivery on Friday, but no update on actual scans since the evening of the 7th at Incheon. I trust UPS, the last time I did the preorder thing the tracking scans were also not as informative as you might like....

Finally preparing to ship one of my iPhones. The 256GB Silver T-mobile I confirmed at 12:15 a.m. just got out of OIP. I supposedly got a place in line reserved for the AT&T IUP 256GB Silver iPhone before that one, and that's still OIP.

For anyone who got a "reservation code" and a space held in line, do you suspect we actually got a place held in line? I'm starting to think that my place is probably somewhere around 2:30 a.m., when I actually got email acknowledgment, even thought I received to code around 12:11 a.m. Kind of annoying, but I'm patient.

I think the same thing is happening to me... I got to the "reservation" page for my Verizon 256GB Silver IUP order around 12:11 - 12:15 am, but did not get the reservation email until 2:41 am. I've had zero movement from OIP, stuck at 11/17-24 shipping date. I keep waiting in vain for movement... They F you with the "reservation" is what it looks like.

does anyone else have a 12/6 ship date? I pre ordered the 256GB SG on verizon like 4 hours after the pre order opened.

No movement or changes yet.......
I do, my ship date is also 12/6 and no movement or charge for taxes. I ordered x2 of the iPhone X 256 SG for both, ordered on Verizon on Oct 27th at 7:24AM.
 
STILL no change whatsoever: W44, 11/17-24, OIP, IUP, ATT SG256. No CC charge. Ordered 10/27 about 12:10 PT but never went through due to Citizens bank foul up; reordered about 24 hrs later with Apple restoring original delivery date.

Really tempted to cancel and take my chances finding one for pickup at a local Apple Store (several within easy driving distance), or Best Buy, ATT, or even Target.

I tried cancelling mine since there has been stock locally 5 times where I could have bought it for in store pickup. Cancel failed on the site and didn't want to bother calling in as it would take too long to get a one before they sell out.
 
Sigh, my 11/10 scheduled delivery per UPS was just shifted to 11/14... Not critical, unless it delays a bit longer, then it will be in my 'travel window' where I'll be gone for 12 days starting 11/17.
[doublepost=1510204141][/doublepost]And now, of course, my local Apple store has it in stock for pickup tomorrow! Aargh....

And, now it is no longer in stock... Nuthin's easy any more.

My order, which changed to PFS earlier today, just changed further to shipped, showing an estimated delivery on the Apple order page of 11/20, with no estimated UPS delivery just yet. I'm going to guess/hope that the actual delivery will be more like 11/15.
