Of course is fair. They’ve made a commitment, and Apple is fulfilling the commitment. Very fair.

Yes i had same dates as you as of last night and woke up to same delivery date. A few links even said November 6. And then later got my mail regarding the return box for my 7plus. It says that I have till November 20 to return old phone. Given that we have 14 days to return says to me that the November 6 date I saw in some places maybe the actual delivery. Well it’s shipping from Foxconn so expect it to leave China by late today so given my experience in other deliveries that they could get here by 6th
It’s been my experience Apple under promises and over delivers in most cases. A 5-6 week lead time is more like 3-4 in Apple terms.
I was on Apple upgrade plan and preapproved on Monday. Got same change during night

Same for me
Anecdotally speaking I know a lot of people aren't buying the X OR 8 that would normally purchase a new iPhone this time of year. It's kind of a perfect storm because the 8 is really a 7S which is a very old design and the X is an ultra expensive smartphone that has FaceID which many people don't want and it has most of the same internals as the cheaper 8.
It's a bit of a confusing product lineup compared to previous years. With that said I got the 8 and happy with it.
wow - I ordered at 08:10am but I got this date 13th-20th Nov - no change as of today !
Same thing as you. November 8 but Apple says 6th and the return box mail says that my return has to be sent or received by 20 so I am thinking the 6th is what apple is assuming.
UPDATE: UPS also confirming November 6!!

Mine departed Alaska late afternoon on Hallowe'en... and the plane seems to have vanished. There hasn't been an update since.
Can I pay off the iPhone 7+ and keep it instead of returning? I think there is about $450 left on apple Upgrade and it seems like it would be more beneficial to do so and hand it down since it is in mint condition.
Same here. However I did just check following tracking links from email to apple site to ups and it just updated.

They're going to have to beat feet to make it from Louisville to my front door by tomorrow afternoon.
Still marked as on time.

You mean me paying 1550€ upfront for a 256GB iPhone X plus Apple Care+ is not a bigger commitment then paying 1330$ in 24 monthly payments (Apple care included)?
This is my experience as well. My wife's hopefully will do this tomorrow, as there was an old credit card number on file for the tax and initial payment, we fixed that and now hers is still in "order in progress".
Ours were both 256GB Space Gray's for AT&T, ordered on the IUP.
And now UPS changed the delivery date to “Information Unavailable” as it appears to have hit Chinese customs before leaving the country.
Ordered via apple store app 03:07 ET 64GB/Silver/Verizon device payment plan. Originally quoted 11/10-17 delivery. Updated a few days later to 11/3 del. Pretty sure apple has been first come first served this entire time. I'm planning to join the apple IUP on the next go around.
Yes, this entirely.
Anything people have a passion for they will find time for.
It isn't anyone elses place to say what another person should or shouldn't spend their time on, just let them be them.
When we can just except another person for who they are, a whole lot of negative crap just falls away.

Personally I'll be at the office with my eyes glued to the reception area door tomorrow.
In my hurry to order I didn't change my shipping address and my default is my office and we are generally closed on Fridays.
But this guy will be at work, alone, bright eyed and bushy tailed waiting for that ups man/woman.
I just got on my UPS account and yes almost done already with customs and ready to ship -- moving fast ;-)

Same here! Originally 17-24, then 16-24, now Monday!IUP 256GB Silver T-Mobile.
Same exact situation as you in terms of delivery estimates and IUP, except I'm 256GB Space Gray AT&T. I had a feeling Apple would bump the delivery date, but didn't think it'd be this much! Very pleased and can't wait for Monday!
Yea, I know how it feels. It pisses me off that I have to pay more for my Mercedes E-class here in the US than Germans pay in Germany, and the new model roll out is generally a year later than in Europe.
At least Apple didn’t put pollution control defeat software on the iPhone X.

Same here I was thinking they would move to the next increment from 16-24th but moving this soon is also pleasing to me. Almost thru customs and my UPS account says ready to depart China soon ;-)
