I did sign up for MyChoice last night..thats an option too. Thanks. Didnt realize I had all these options. First pre-order anxiety. But..Wednesday...the day, more like TIME that UPS usually shows up and I WONT be here..of all the days.

I have presigned for Apple products, and it always makes me anxious. I worry most about the people who come around leaving ads on my door and walking off with my stuff. It's hasn't happened...yet.

I'm going to place my currently shipping iPhone 6 Plus on Will Call, too. It's so much nicer than waiting around all day.
 
I would never pre-sign for an Apple product. UPS is usually pretty good at leaving them with the condo office, but I've had FedEx leave stuff at my door many times. So far nothing has been stolen, but there are lots of kids around.
 
Can anyone help me find my flight? I can't happen to find it on flightaware :(

Hey guys. Sorry for breaking the flow of the thread but it seems that everyone is getting their phone earlier than apple's estimations?

Long story short I did the whole preorder thing but instead of using my credit card I used a wire transfer which basically put me way back on the waiting qeue. (That's a mistake I'll never repeat...)
So my delivery estimate on apple's website is 13-20 October.
Since everyone seems to be getting their phones earlier I'm wondering if there are any chances of the 13-20 October estimates moving up to next week?
I don't know if that changes things but I live in Europe. Specifically Germany.
I'll be off for vacation next Friday and it would be really cool if I also had the phone with me.
 
Good news for SoCal 7:10ers

A little off topic but did anyone order a Spigen case from Amazon for their 6 Plus? I ordered one on the 14th and I'm seeing that a lot of people have gotten it already while mine says it won't ship out until the 30th. I'm guessing because of backorder?
 
Guys you think any of our cargo will make this flight?

We should have all landed by then, getting on that plane is all the difference between getting to Louisville early in the morning (and then flying to our cities), or getting there way later in the morning after drivers are already delivering.

It looks like it the flight to Louisville will be delayed slightly which is probably to accommodate the flight from Incheon that left later than scheduled. I would expect they will try to get us all on that flight.
 
The UPS guys just dropped of 2 other packages I was getting today, this is the earliest he has ever came and I would of had my phone in my hands right now. :mad:
 
But did he get the 6Plus he wanted? I got the exact one I wanted. That's what was important to me. I didn't wanna wait in like for 12+ hrs and then get a choice of silver or gold 16gb. No thanks.

Agreed. When I spend this kind of money I don't settle.

That would be really really nice. My group is on that late flight. I hope we can all fit on the plane with you good people :)

I received mine in 2 days but I am a prime member. I got the Neo Hybrid case and was notified by Spigen that they are sending an upgrade for the volume switch to improve the performance/feel.
 
UPS 99 is hauling A$$:
"557 kts (planned: 513 kts) "

640 MPH. Making up for that 7:10 ZhengZhou security scan debacle.
 
This may be a dumb questions, but, how do you determine what phone is shipped on what plane? I was told that my phone is on UPS flight 81; from Shanghai to Anchorage (departed 9:13 pm). Do you just compare the time the UPS flights out of Shanghai match up to your departure scan I assume?

yes
 
Seriously, am I the only one with an 8:04 PM arrival scan in Incheon but NO departure scan yet?.....I'm getting a little nervous
 
On an unrelated note the ups guy just came to deliver my case. I am so relieved seeing the size it is not big at all its actually perfect. Don't know what all the fuss was about:D

Please see the ZhengZhou 9/19 Security Scan incident as reference. Sat there for 3 days without any movement until 4:45AM this morning. Be patient, it will move.
