Oh man, I'm so sorry to hear that. Did you know that your package was lost and then contacted Apple/UPS? Or were you in weirdo tracking limbo like a lot of us?
If you could please post your tracking info, prior to receiving word that a new one was on the way, that would be really helpful. Good luck in getting your iPhone and godspeed my friend.
I sure hope this doesn't happen to me
