I had originally ordered a Space Grey 32 GB on T-Mobile on launch morning. I canceled it on Saturday and ordered a Verizon one instead. That how has shipped out with expected delivery of Friday 11/22! It has serial DLXL...hopefully no screen issues other than the expected dang gamut.

This is something I noticed a few days ago that those of you, like myself who purchased a few extra of these to resell this Holiday will want to take note of (longer than 14 days to send back, free return label, etc.):

Mine changed to 'preparing shipment'! Finally!
Ordered 128GB T-mobile on launch day.
I have been waiting for a week and finally changed from processing items to
preparing for shipment!!
How long will it take to be 'shipped'? any ideas?
I am so happy!!

128G T-Mobile rMini
I just checked mine as well and it also changed from "processing" to "preparing for shipment"!
From my experience, it usually takes anywhere from half a day to a full day to go from prep to shipped. Hope it goes quickly so I can play with mine over Thanksgiving

So I had UPS change the delivery to hold it at the UPS center instead of delivering it.... The package has now disappeared from tracking all info. It magically teleported 7000 miles in a matter of minutes, but they can confirm that it is not at the reported location. Moreover, they expected delivery time of 11/22 is now completely absent.

Sisterly Love
If I don't get mine in time for Thanksgiving I'll just have to hold hostage my sister's rMini that should be delivered on the 25th that I paid for.

True! Mine was preparing for shipment this morning and I got the shipment notice at 5 pm
So jealous. My two 128GB AT&T ordered on the 12th still show processing. Apple said there is little chance it will arrive before Thanksgiving. At least they are honest.
What time did you order them? I ordered mine at 1pm (EDT) and now preparing for shipping.

How could this happen? It is 3:13 pm right now.
any ideas with this one?
32GB, gray, retina mini.
Ordered on the 14th (last thursday) standard (free) shipping.
Could Apple have stopped the first one in Louisville and resent another?
Maybe, stop the "ghost, burn in display" one and reship a good one?
Or is it something really strange?

If you sign up for the UPS choice and it is shipped by UPS, you should have that as one of the reference numbers.
Hi,
Why are most of the orders I see on this thread for T mobile and ATT??? I just placed an order for Verizon 32GB and feel left out. Did i miss something by going with Verizon???
Thanks

Not at all. I have a T-Mobile SIM in my Verizon Air right now. Plus, your IPad is now on the verizon whitelist so you won't have any hassles if you decide to use Verizon also.
