I think apples orders were messed up but the shipping company going bankruptcy. The. The carriers are messed up bc they are carriers
 
It seems like if you want the 256GB MB+, Best Buy has one-day shipping and you can expect it to arrive by Monday or Tuesday.

Sounds a little tempting, but I am too damn stubborn to shy away from my JB+ order.

I know I sound like a broken record, but if you haven't already taken this survey, please check it out if you have a minute or two! Already have over 80 responses! Thank you to everyone who filled it out so far! :)

It seems like half of the respondents have ordered their phones on the 10th or later.

Also, 10 out of 83 people surveyed noted that their estimated ship dates were in September.

Furthermore, out of the 83 responses I've received, not a single person ordered the gold iPhone.

I tried seeing if I could set up an order for a 256 MB 7+ on Best Buy's website with one-day shipping, but of course doesn't let you proceed if you havent cancelled your AT&T order. I'm too paranoid to cancel it...short of having the phone in my hand... :p
 
Bad part is there's no way to talk to someone and price match o. The Best Buy web site easily or even possibly.
 
Well we have 7 MD11 UPS planes coming to Louisville within the next 11 hours, with 3 of them arriving in about two and a half hours from now. Hopefully we will actually see some progress!

Another data update:

Based on your responses, the average transition time from "Backordered" to "Shipped" status was approximately 24 hours. A couple of people mentioned that they never went into backorder prior to their phones being shipped.

Furthermore, the average time from "Shipped" to "Delivered" was between 1-3 days.

Hopefully ours will just ship without going in to backorder then
 
Has anyone's phone been delivered on saturday from UPS? Mine left Fort Worth an hour ago, hope it can make it to me in Tennessee soon.
 
Wow, 100 responses from the survey I created tonight. That's amazing! :)

If you haven't taken it yet and can spare a minute or two, please check it out (especially those who just received their shipping notification and haven't filled out the survey)!

NOTE: If a question does not apply to you, please just answer "N/A." Thanks!

P.S. It seems like the gold color is the least popular, with only one person out of 100 people surveyed that answered "gold" (and I believe it was for the 7 and not 7 Plus).
[doublepost=1475218641][/doublepost]Best Buy is showing 256GB MB+ with guaranteed arrival on Tuesday and the 128GB JB+ with shipping dates between October 11th - 20th. (NOTE: I believe you have to cancel your AT&T order first in order to buy from Best Buy.)

I'm still holding onto what little hope I have left in my AT&T order though...

Do it, I returned my iPhone 7 and went on BestBuy.com right after the upgrade reversal was done and ordered my iPhone 7 Plus Black version and it got here in two days of ordering it.
 
Okay, so I apparently can't see anyone else's responses after I hit 100 people who filled out the survey unless I want to pay for their upgrade plan, which is about $200! Again, thank you for filling it out! I will try to create another survey after I've slept for a little bit. :)
