The T-Mobile shipping times page now shows 11/3 -11/10 for all iPhone X as of 7:30am PST. I don’t know how that is still possible, but I ordered over the phone at 1am here and still ended up with 11/3. Seems dubious.
Got a tip for us?

For what model?? I got a confirmation email for T-Mobile 256 Gb Space Gray at 12:04am and got delivery estimates from 11/10 to 11/17. It seems this was the case for all the orders of this model. I´m really hoping this is just an error and apple will be delivering mine on the 3rd.

Same here. I wonder if they are just waiting to re-run them all later today. I havent heard of anyone who has gotten the res order email.
For me, both the Apple store website as well as the Apple Store app did not get refreshed until about 12:21am PDT. Same thing EVERY year 😡. Why do others see the store get refreshed so much quicker?! Is that an ISP caching issue?
Anyway, got my order in through the VZW website with a temporary VZW account that I can now cancel (my carrier is AT&T) with 11/3 as delivery. Of course VZW charges a $30 activation fee, but oh well. The VZW website let me process an order as early as 11:58pm PDT!

As long as my reservation gets me the delivery window from when it happened... I'll be ok with it.
Went just like I expected. Although I placed my order fo iPhoneX Gray 256GB on the Apple Web Site as soon as the page came up I got Nov 10-17 shipping (which of course could still change to sooner but probably won't). Surprisingly I did not have any issues checking out with PayPal which I really feared!

Same. Exactly the same. So disappointing.

Agreed. I only started buying from Apple (as opposed to a carrier) when they released the Apple iPhone Upgrade Program; and now I never have one on launch day.
Interesting didn't even think of that, I really wanted the Verizon version of the phone for use with Tmobile. I'm assuming you purchased the phone at full price and also assuming it comes unlocked by default.

Hmmm I ordered from Apple web site Tmo version as soon as the site came up and got Nov 10-17 delivery.

I had a reservation too, but I didn't believe that. So I kept adding the phone to cart and checking out and about 3 seconds later it gave me the option to check out my cart. Good luck with the reservation, your shipping is probably 6+ weeks. Reservations dont reserve shipping slots.
[doublepost=1509117250][/doublepost]
It doesnt.
I first got a reservation confirmation but since I know it doesnt save shipping slots, I kept adding the iphone to cart and it let me checkout about 30 seconds after. My order was placed at 12:04 PST.
I got my reservation email at 3:02am PST.

The apple store app is always, always faster. My store was loaded at 12:03am PST
Yeah, I have no idea. Someone else in the thread said they ordered 256 from T-Mobile this morning and ended up with 11/10-11/17. I’m sure it has to a lot to do with the demand for the 256gb model over the 64. And perhaps more people ordered from Apple as opposed to T-Mobile directly? No clue. My status hasn’t slipped yet, so I’ll give it today and see if it indeed does stay at 11/2 for 11/3 arrival.

Pretty sure you don't know this for a fact...
BTW - it wouldn't let me place another order - said I already had a reservation.

You can deny it all you want, it's happened before to me so good luck. I got a reservation AND placed an order. Check attached images. It says "maintain delivery priority", however when I placed an order via the reservation system before that was reserved at 12:03am, the shipping was 1 month+ out.
My card was just charged for 256 space grey arriving 11/03.

I honestly think, and this may just be me convincing myself I made a good decision, that Apple really hit a home run by eliminating a 128 option. 256 is overkill IMO. I realized under the new filing system I only use about 27GB on my current 7+, other files are either in iCloud storage or I might just not use that much space....either way I found it really easy to order the 64GB Space Grey.
The Apple Store app had to go live around 2:04 CT i think and I received my confirmation email at 2:06 CT 🙂

Is there anyone from Canada who has day 1 delivery? For me, the store opened 10 or 11 minutes late, so when I was able to make an order, it was already 2-3 weeks delay. I kept killing/relaunching the app, but didn't bother to check the website. Maybe I should have, but it's not a long wait either way.

This happens every time. Whether the store opens for you on time or not is just a lottery in disguise. If it opens for you on time, then you win and your prize is day-one delivery. If not, you lose and you get delayed.

Everybody and their brother is.
Apple had better honor those reservations, that’s all I have to say.

yes. same thing here...ordered at 3:14am EST, got the reservation email at 5:44, and still no second email.
Placed my order at 3:10am EST through apple website. iPhone X 256GB SG. ETA Nov 17th - 24th 🙁...I could have placed the order sooner but Apple pay was not working for me so i had to check out by entering my credit card info. Hopefully these dates will change :Fingerscrossed:
