iPhone 5 Available to ship:2 weeks / Delivers Oct 5

I've had such a palava with Apple and my credit card company, it's only been resolved this week and I was refunded yesterday so I ordered the iPhone 5.

Estimated date for delivery - 18 - 24 October :(

I definitely can't be without a phone for much longer... it's been 3 weeks now.
 
Well new update,
After 3 days in china I have another depacher scan, this would have been about two hours ago

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh :mad::confused::eek:

Mine still also shows:

ZhengZhou, China 09/22/2012 9:59 A.M. Origin Scan
China 09/23/2012 10:06 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS

on the website I have a scheduled delivery date of 9/27 EOD
My Choice UPS sent an email saying 9/26 EOD
and UPS Live Chat says they have no new information keep checking the website. SERIOUSLY! :mad::eek:

I don't know what to believe when it comes to UPS since packages that arrived to China after ours are already being delivered. I have a feeling our pallet is with a different courier who is unable to scan into the UPS system. SO frustrating!

You should have waited and ordered mid day on the 14th. They seem to have mostly receive theirs. People who tried to order early got screwed.

Mine actually shows the 531 pm departure now.. I hope this is not correct because they said it would be here today.. I wonder if the system is so far behind that it departed a while ago but the status just updated to the system @ 531pm.. A guy can hope right??

Does anyone know? I would think the times posted are actually the system time no matter when the packages were actually scanned... I've seen many of the same scan times and I really doubt they can scan that many phones in under 60 seconds...:eek:

Why not cancel, go onto Apple.com at 10pm and reserve to pick up in store?

I assumed that they were all on pallets until Louisville, so the scan is just the pallet getting scanned- it would be much more efficient than scanning each individual phone!

I'm in the same exact boat as you Sweetkiki..... :(:mad:
 
I am beginning to wonder if the barcode on my pallet was damaged. That would explain the stop in updates.

I think I'm on the same flight as you. Apple email said delivers the 28th, UPS said the 27th until this morning but the deliver date has now disappeared. Any chance we still get it at least on friday? I'm in st louis area btw.

Me.

UPS tracking is still showing "On Time" with a scheduled delivery of tomorrow (27th) to Texas. If it is really still there, I have my doubts about getting it tomorrow. I fell into the Expedited ship group rather than Express.

Unfortunately, I'm also with this group that is languishing in Incheon since 9/25 at 8:30 PM. I'm so hopeful that it will depart on the UPS flight 61 departing at 9:55 PM (30 minutes from now). I also fell into the Expedited ship group. I suspect the others that arrived in Korea at 8:30 PM and have already made it to Louisville may have been in the Express group. UPS tracking still shows delivery by EOD 9/27 but I'm not sure how the weather issues in Louisville could impact this schedule.

Keep hope alive that there will be ANY movement soon!!!!

I have the same status. I'm a bit confused why ours would still be sitting there when I've seen some other people with the same arrival time in Korea leave on the plane to Alaska last evening. Guess that's the difference in the shipping types. I would be really intereste to know how Apple decided who gets what shipping type.

Hopefully we'll be back on the road today but I'm seriously doubting devlievery tomorrow at this point. I guess we'll know if the people who arrived at 8:30 yesterday and were on the flight to Alaska a few hours later get theirs today.
