my Oct. 6th-9th order is showing a Wednesday Oct 1st delivery date. :)

Since it shipped yesterday, I hope it doesn't have iOS 8.01 on it. ;)

oh and I think this confirms that they are using "standard shipping" for non- pre-orders.
 
did someone say take a while?

mine has departed and estimated arrival date via ups is 10/1. me like that.

where'd you buy it? apple store?
 
I have an October 1st delivery date. Looks like we all have that date whether it was shipped yesterday or today.
 
I've been looking at the other threads. This is going to take a while guys, so relax and don't check too much.

Apple shipped a big batch last Friday, and just some of them are being delivered today. Some are scheduled for tomorrow. And others are still waiting for an import scan.....

Yeah, my delivery estimate was just updated. 10/01 :'(


Me too. Delivery for Wednesday, 10/1 by EOD. Looks like Wednesday's my WFH day!
 
Why is there a departure scan followed by an arrival scan in china? Delivery date of 10-1 for me...

That usually signifies the phone leaving the ZhengZhou factory, then arriving at the ZhengZhou airport. In the next day or so, they should all catch flights to Incheon to head up to Anchorage.
 
update

it looks like old like my iPhone 6 16GB slate gray that I ordered on 09/14 at 6:00 p.m will ship tomorrow. My order has been updated with a tracking number field (but no tracking number yet), and my credit card has been billed. My original delivery date was 1/07 then changed to a shipping date of 10/03. I ordered through Verizon so I could take advantage of the $200 trade in offer.
 
No movement in a while. Come on, Wednesday! On another note, my Spigen Air Skin arrived. This thing is paper thin. I don't know that I'll use it for too long, but we'll see how it feels on the phone. I just wanted to have something when my iPhone got here.

I also sprung for a two year SquareTrade warranty. Can't go wrong for $84. Water damage, cracked screens, you name it - they cover it. They reimburse for Apple repairs too.

The Spigen case is so thin! How does it feel in the hand? Is it slippery? It appears to be back ordered now. I think I might go with a Beyza
Lute pouch case.

It feels great in the hand. Slightly slippery when I'm only holding the case itself, but I don't see it posing a problem once it's on the actual phone. I ended up getting it for free because it showed up with some scratches on it. Kind of annoying, but I'll take the refund over a replacement. I've never heard of the Beyza case, I'll have to check it out.
 
I'm in the same boat as you guys - phone has been sitting here for a while.

ZhengZhou, China 09/25/2014 10:30 P.M. Location Scan

To make things worse, my delivery date has gone from October 1 to

"Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later."

I have the same location scan time as yours does, but I still have the 10/1 delivery date. It's weird that yours has changed to "not available."

Last location scan is practically the same as yours... Mine was at 10pm the same day... weird that your delivery info got moved, mine is still the same (oct1 by the end of the day) ...
 
at least our iPhones are all together in China and not lonely......ship them out already! :D
 
This is now getting ridiculous. If UPS changes my delivery date, they're going to get a not nice call from me. :mad:
 
I've looking at other threads, and looking at the shipping process posted by others. It seems that anything from 1 to 3 days is normal at ZhengZhou. After leaving from there, it moves a lot faster.

But if it doesn't ship today, we are going to be very tight for a Wednesday delivery.

Either way, this is a joke. Ridiculous process for an "Expedited" shipping.
 
For those that are waiting till October for their 6, you should cancel your order and just go to a local Apple Store. Every single Apple store near me has the 6 in stock. 6+ is another story


I've looked in the Apple Store near my area and they don't have any 6's or 6 plus so I had to order online


Seriously UPS? Over a day without any movement. Come on!


I know it's frustrating. My phone is sitting in China as we speak and it's been there since weds but it's not ups fault. They ship it how the shipper wants it shipped or pays to have it shipped. From what I understand is they are shipping these in large groups for cheaper shipping plus easier to go through customs. They will be moving on in the next day or so.
