On the Apple site it shows no signature but ups does require signature at least that what I was told by ups. I signed for mine

You probably had an experienced UPS driver, however, like I said before a lot of people got their boxes stolen or apparently now even UPS employees are opening the boxes and stealing the phone and taping it back up and sending it out for delivery.

:apple:
 
Mine arrived today via Fedex. After pre-ordering it on 27th, I was in this group. It didn't ship until last Wednesday. Original delivery date from apple was 11/16 after it was shipped.. Fedex had 11/15...but it ended up arriving today.
 
so far just arrived in AK, and showed 11/16. any one with me?

Man, I was feeling pretty good when I got my shipment notification LAST WEDNESDAY. I would never have believed that it would still be in the origin city Monday night. :(

I am with ya. Happy to see it finally make it across the waters.

Mine is stuck in Memphis, TN it seems. When I track from the UPS page it still shows delivery for this Wednesday, however, when I go through the Verizon site it shows that my package is delayed and doesn't give me a delivery date. I'm wondering if mine is going to be delayed as well.

Did anyone else show Memphis as their origin city? My package didn't even start in China, Korea, or Anchorage. It started in Memphis and has stayed there since this morning.
 
My phone is in the same batch as yours. Let me guess... space gray 256, paid in full, waiting in OIP since right after the online Apple Store opened on 10/27. Watching later IUP, carrier, and store walk-in orders jump your preorder for the last 2 weeks. ;)

I think things look good for Friday, unless we get nailed with a long customs wait somewhere or severe weather at a hub.

the phone doesnt seem to want to leave Shanghai

as per https://flightaware.com/live/iphone there are no scheduled flights out of shanghai.
 
Are you upgrading using IUP?

Still waiting for mine to ship. Changed from oip to preparing for shipment on 11/6. CC changed. Verizon 64gb sg. It never shipped. On Friday 11/10 went back to oip. Got a call from Apple rep on Saturday and was told that I needed to re order and cancel my existing order. Was told that my delivery date would still be in the 11/17 to 11/24 window. Today the new order online listed the delivery date as 11/20 to 11/28. Pre ordered on the 27th shortly after 12:00 will never pre order again. Feel totally abused by Apple
 
I think my phone will likely be on the UPS77 flight out of Shenzhen Bao'an Int'l, which departs 7hrs from now. UPS has told me that the phone has cleared customs, so I'm just awaiting my departure scan, which seems plausible that it would be on that one. That plane goes to Anchorage Intl, then to Louisville, so if this is the case, I'm hoping for a Wednesday/Thursday delivery date for my phone, at long last.

Got my import scan, now finally have a date: tomorrow!

The next day my case and my mom’s new case (she’s getting my 6s+ but the case she has commented on loving multiple times is falling apart, so I’m getting her a new Apple leather saddle brown case) will get here. I’m beyond excited!

Three days before the estimated delivery! If I get it that day I will be over the moon. I mainly wanted it before thanksgiving so this is huge.

Downdate: still in AK since 4 am this morning. Shows delivery changed to Thursday 16 from 15. Just received Apple e mail with delivery the 20th, signature required, but I can sign on phone !! About to give up and keep 7+. I have never seen a more screwed up buying experience. Looks like they just make up changes to drive us crazy.......please tell me not to slit wrists until after Thursday and it is a no show.......it is just a stupid phone and there are real problems in this world.......help me get a grip...........
