iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Sprint Pre-Order Thread!

I guess I'm the exception to the rule then. :(

But that said, I just wanted to warn others to not 100% take it as guaranteed. BUT if it is accurate, then that's awesome. And well, I guess you are right, I seem to be in the minority. So maybe I shouldn't have made that post.

If you don't mind me asking, when you originally found the shipping order using your sprint account # reference, did it have your house/address listed at the top right? Like even before it was processed? Did that change later? Is there still hope for mine to change from its current destination to my house address?

Because as of now, the upper right hand corner says its destination is Oklahoma (Ship to). And I'm in Cali.

I really do not know. I just signed up late last night for the my choice so i could see the date of delivery and also i just got a email from them but none from sprint. All i got from sprint was it says shipped on there site.

It does say it is coming from the right location and has said that all along

I went with the spigen neo-hybrid metal. It's thin and seems to be well made. Has a tpu case and an aliminum bumper. Got it for $25 on eBay #

Thanks, I have a few Spigen cases saved to my Amazon wish list. That was one that I had my eye on. I've also used Ringke/Rearth in the past, and they are quite slim and sturdy, with the soft touch material that doesn't slide around.
 
Iphone 6 plus 64 gray and 6 plus 16gb Silver ordered 0305 EST projected dates of up to 3 weeks and 3-4 weeks. Tracking number said I will get it 9/19,WOW . Why the hell did sprint give those bogus projections? You know how many pre-orders they lost to Apple.com with their BS ship dates? I'm happy I will be getting it tomorrow, but F U Sprint, terrible business.

Thanks for the info. So at least we know Space Grey 64s ordered through 4am EDT 9/12 are being shipped. I ordered mine at 6am, so I'm still hopefully it'll get shipped out today. My order number is 75056xxxx.

Both of my orders are 75054xxxx

On the ATT side they promised 9/19 launch day deliveries and later pushed them 4 weeks to late October. At sprint they gave a 3wk window and delivered day one.

so to be fair it seems like the problems happening are more due to bad info in the supply chain rather than carriers intentionally misleading anyone. and considering they work in our favor then Im very happy to be a sprint customer right now. (Well I will be when I get my stinking 3AM 64gb+ shipping info...)
 
For anyone who is considering waiting in line tonight/tomorrow, Target is giving no information about whether or not they'll have any available for walk-ins tomorrow. They won't say they have them and they won't say they don't.

Why didn't I just order from the Sprint store Friday morning so mine could be shipping with the other people who did just that? Oh that's right! I did go in to do just that when they opened and they said I couldn't cancel my online order to place an in store order. :mad:
 
Funny to think about all the impatient people with 6+ preorders that were cursing Sprint up and down the past few days, only to get a notification that they are getting it on the 19th.

It definitely appears that they went with the under commit, over deliver idea.

Also, does Sprint really lose out on the sales if they are upgrades? I would imagine they still get credit for the sale.

I'm doubtful my iPhone 6+ 64GB Space Grey that I ordered 3 1/2 hours after launch will be here tomorrow, but the news that people are getting in front of me makes it clear to me that I can be optimistic for it to arrive next week.

3A (PST) 64+ Gray Waiting List its:

8RLEE8 - 750561XXX
Urkel - 750561XXX
katsura76 - 750563XXX

We seem to be right at that cutoff point from orders fulfilled yesterday so if any of us get status info then report it in. We've got to be on that next palette or simply not recorded yet.

What's your order number (roughly). There seems to be a few of us in that 75056xxx block.
 
Got my confirmation

Been reading here for a couple days and it got my hopes up and down. No email from sprint, but I have my UPS tracking confirming delivery by EOD on the 19th.

Ordered 2 space gray 6's with 64 gb on Sun the 14th around 11:00 am through telesales. They initially told me 3 weeks, happy to get it tomorrow :)

is your order saying its shipped on the sprint order status page ???

Which number did you call. I tried calling yesterday but all I got was someone overseas saying "Congratulations, your order will be shipped to you in 4-6 weeks". I haven't been able to reach anyone at Sprint yet could give me that kind of detail as to what's going on with my order.
Click to expand...

I used the chat function on the order status page. What I suspect is that because my package will not need a flight to get to me, (following the China-Alaska-Louisville route) that they are holding my package to be one of the last ones out. They don't want them to arrive early, and since it will most likely be on a truck from Louisville to Indiana, they have no need to ship it before late tonight, or even early tomorrow morning. They are moving things out quickly when they need to get farther distances. Surely my phone which just needs to travel 3 more hours by truck would get out behind a package that needs to get to California by flight, and another truck.

At least this is what I'm telling myself to try and quell my stress/fear/excitement so I don't freak out. I'm right, right?...please?

I just saw a tracking number posted on sprints order status! It beat out UPS My choice and searching via reference (acct number, phone number, order number with all its different ways,) which still isn't showing any info.

My 16 gb silver iPhone plus is on its way to S.CA! I ordered at 2:45a pacific time on sept 12th. Hoping others who ordered the 16gb plus wake up to some good news in the morning!

Update: Showing updated origin scan from Louisville, KY for delivery Friday EOD. Weight is at 1.2 lbs for those with multiple phone orders, wondering which model may be inside.

Waiting was the easy part, now let's see how many hours on the phone it'll take to activate my SERO plan on this phone! :mad:
 
Does anyone know of any stores that are selling iPhone 6/6+ cases right now even though tomorrow is launch day?
 
Looks like I'll be getting it tomorrow!

iPhone 6+ 64GB Silver.

Rycbar123 - 75051XXXX
8RLEE8 - 750561XXXX
Urkel - 750561XXXX
katsura76 - 750563XXX
Urkel - 750564XXXX
JTravers - 75056XXXX
Odditie - 750566XXX
Antdub - 75056xxxx

Well Rycbar123 dented my hopes for a tomorrow delivery because I thought he was far enough to be fulfilled by now. But still, were probably pretty close so it's not too bad.

Anyone know if Sprint uses UPS Saturday delivery?
