I'm one of those people who got the 2-3 weeks/October 4-10 window for my matte black 256 GB iPhone 7 Plus. Apple finally charged my card about ten minutes ago. Apple Store still says "processing" but this means shipment is imminent, yes?

Any idea how long after "preparing for shipment" it usually ships?

Awsome bro! The wait is over lol! I did purchase the case awhile back it will be delivered to me today!
 
My 256GB 7+ Jet Black went backorder last night and by lunch time today I received my shipping notification!

I will have it in my possession after work tomorrow according to FedEx so I'm happy this nightmare is finally ending. :eek:

I ordered 9/9 @ 5:24 am ET and was in the 9/30-10/7 window for those of you wondering.

I like the crystal clear case i'm with you guys on that n will order the same once Apple decides to ship the iphone so far "PFS"
 
Just got a notification from UPS that a tracking number has been generated, with expected delivery on Monday. I hope I don't experience some of the international shipping delays UPS deliveries seem to have been running into.

(Incidentally, in all the years I've bought stuff from Apple, this is the first time the courier hasn't been FedEx. I remember reading in Steve Jobs' official biography that a major shipping company pissed him off once and he banned them from ever doing business with Apple. I'd always just assumed it was UPS. Evidently not. ;))

Congrats!!Mine is still "Pfs".
 
So get this guys my dad and brother just received their shipments one MB 7+ and one JB 7+ when we opened the boxes the box that should have had the JB was GONE somebody from FedEx I guess STOLE the JB phone they also re tapped box with clear tape not the brown Verizon uses in warehouse!!! This JB craze is getting out of hand we have since called Fed Ex and Verizon and that phone has been flagged as stolen and he has a jump the line on a new order for his phone. I really hope everyone gets their JB phones shipped and actually receive them and does not have to go through this! :(

Most likely it will go to Tennessee first. I did training at FedEx years back and I did recall that Tennessee is thier "Hub" facility where everything imported in the us goes there first before heading out to our houses. Don't worry buddy once you see Tennessee on your track your package page,it will be any moment now!
 
So alone I sit....in the town of Processing.... Today is a day like all the others...where little happens each day and many enter but only few leave. Each sad soul saying to themselves "maybe today is my day to leave this god forsaken town." All the while knowing they'll be here tomorrow with a tiny piece of their soul missing to mark the days passing.

LOL
 
The shipment containing my phone flew out of Hong Kong about six hours ago. Hopefully the next destination is the US and not a bunch of intermediate connections in Asia.
 
So about 7PM now. Mine changed from Processing deliver in November to Processing Deliver November 18, 2016. I guess getting an actual date is progress. I'll take it. Here's hoping it comes earlier.
