Looks amazing. Can't wait til I get a tracking number. Finally got yours after all the trouble!
 
Looks like the ship dates for the 7+ JB 128GB have officially been revised from 10/7 to 10/12-10/19 on the Sprint order page. I'm about ready to just cancel my order completely. One day.. ONE DAY before shipping and all of a sudden they push it 5-12 days further. Sprint, GFY.

Its a tough ride man. That's why I tend to stay away from new iPhones till this all dies down and the supply chain can reasonably meet demand. This is the first time I've ordered one on device launch, so I sort of expected a bumpy ride given Apple's track record with these things. My guess, and its just a guess, is that the shipping dates are rough estimates and you'll get your phone sooner than later. Its much better to quote a later date and be early than an early date and be late.

My first preorder as well.. you'd think they would get their stuff together but it's always something every year lol. It's just frustrating when you preorder and then have people who placed their orders WAY after you already receive their phones, it just sucks. Oh well, Back to the waiting game.

Im almost certain the 10/21 batch will get pushed back too judging by how close both sets are
 
Went to my Best Buy tonight they had so many 256 gb matte black + I was tempted to buy but then a lady that preorder a jet black + 128gb last week received hers today ...why is sprint taking forever and Best Buy can get them in a week.

It might be a money issue, as best buy moves way more apple product than sprint, but I'm blindly speculating here so don't quote me.

I've been hearing that story forever, and I'm over it. Sprint could have substituted a MB+ 32, or 256 at this point, which i have told Marci's minions. Considering that I ONLY cancelled my 9/9 order, for a 9/11 order bc they said I should switch to the 128 for a sooner arrival.

I got a month of my bill credited, so I am not valid in hating them further. For me, Sprint's customer service HAS compensated for this nightmare.

What I am saying is that I might feel like a whiny ***** baby, complaining further... but so be it.

I want my ****.
That's not true as Verizon has them in stock 2 day shipping I started to cancel my order and switch colors
 
Welp, got this today. Hopefully my new baby is somewhere in one of the 8 flights scheduled to land in the next few hours!

I think 2 more devices to go and I'll probably retire from this thread. Then we can all meet back here in 11 months to do it again. To everyone else keep the faith!

No tracking, but this post made this the best morning for me best since... well the 16th!

It just seems like the MB won't ever ship lol. They got 4 days to get this phone here. Then I'm calling Marcis team back and they better not say anything other than they are about to send my order as we speak.
 
Question. How long does the hold on your bill hold for with the RMA kit? I have an additional $600 that just showed up on my bill and I'm kinda sweating bullets right now. There going to charge my account tomrrow for well over $600.
