I was a 1:34 arrival also - still waiting on my import scan.
I for one would rather go with the UPS delivery time (9/25/14) since Apple still says delivery on Oct 1-6!

So I have to wonder.....ANYONE with a 1:34 arrival scan get and import scan yet? I don't have a good feeling about this.
 
I had this long-winded response..... but you know, DUDE (yes, I hate that word) ..... never mind.....

Yep never mind my unknown Internet friend... just trying to cheer you up... But well... I think you've decided to be grouchy.. So I'll leave you at that... Have a good day DUDE... ;)
 
Sigh... First world problems... You are so angry because a phone is delayed by a day or two even though it will still be 8-10 days earier than originally promised...

Sometimes unforeseen **** happens dude... Loosen up a bit... :)

I just want to point out the following. Apple estimated a delivery date for us. Call that the "Promise." Then, guess what? - We all got shipping notification earlier. That's our NEW Promise.

So, when UPS absolutely 100% fouls this up, we have every right to be irritated since that current, "valid," Promise is broken. Heck, my tracking info originally said Wednesday, and then changed yesterday to Monday...Monday...Monday, where it resolutely stayed - even up till last night at 11:30pm! Are you seriously telling me UPS's logistics are working when they're telling me at almost midnight PDT that my phone will still be delivered that day?

Now, it says Wednesday. Quite frankly I won't be surprised if it doesn't show up Wednesday. UPS screwed up here, and ANYONE in this thread has the right to be irritated about it. I know numerous people who took a day off work or worked from home yesterday (which is sometimes very difficult to arrange) and were left hanging by UPS.

Here's an analogy for you:

Hey Bob! I'm going to come and mow your lawn for you between 5pm and 6pm next Monday!

Aww, thanks Jim!

Hey Bob! I'm actually going to come earlier, - this week on Wednesday! That's tomorrow!

Awww, AWESOME! Thanks Jim!

*Jim doesn't show up Wednesday, or even Thursday....*

Hey, Jim? Why didn't you show up Wednesday? Or Thursday?

SHUT UP, BOB! I ORIGINALLY said next Monday so you have NO right to complain!

:eek:

So, for those who continually berate the irritated in this thread, please - just stop.
 
Where's our "resident" UPS guy telling us all the scans would be done by noon???? LOL!!! At this point if you have a delivery date of 9/25 that's what it's gonna be, plain and simple. They are not gonna bump that up to make you happy...
 
So I have to wonder.....ANYONE with a 1:34 arrival scan get and import scan yet? I don't have a good feeling about this.

I think the answer is "yes" (but I'm not one of them.) Those packages on that flight that were "saver" (delivered more quickly) likely got scanned, while those of us who were "expedited" (slower - delivery 9/25) will be scanned tomorrow or, if scanned today, will stay in KY until tomorrow.
 
USPS is terrible. i use prime and when it's usps delivering, it almost always gets lost.

So far at my current address, USPS has managed the following:

-Scanned as delivered something they delivered three days later since the apartment office was closed instead of delivering it to my apartment (not gated mind you)
-Delivered the Amazon Sunday boxes for the entire complex to my front door without a knock
-Failed to deliver Amazon Sunday shipment because my residential apartment apparently counts as business closed somehow
-Delivered everyone else's mail to my locked mailbox
-Delivered a check that I didn't even know to expect (So I wouldn't have known it was missing) to some other apartments locked mailbox

I know there are a few more cases but I can't even remember all their shenanigans.
 
My Import Scan just changed from 11:23AM to 12:42PM:confused: and the delivery date was updated to 9/24 by the end of day
 
So I have to wonder.....ANYONE with a 1:34 arrival scan get and import scan yet? I don't have a good feeling about this.

Not here, and neither does my cousin, but they're still going out over the time frame I predicted, so don't start freaking out until 3 pm rolls around without any import scans.
 
Same arrival time, just got the import scan. No update on the delivery date but I'm expecting it to happen tomorrow.

Seriously people, we should've trusted the delivery estimate from Apple instead of UPS after the item's been shipped all along.

Louisville, KY, United States
09/23/2014 12:48 P.M. Import Scan
09/23/2014 1:34 A.M. Arrival Scan

Same arrival scan, no import scan. And Apple's delivery estimate to me was the 29th, so I'm happy they appear to have been mistaken actually. ;)

another 1:34 here... mine got scanned not too long ago. i really think they are scanning one by one... by hand, via transfer paper, using ink, and walking them over one at a time.

Louisville, KY, United States 09/23/2014 11:41 A.M. Import Scan
Louisville, KY, United States 09/23/2014 1:34 A.M. Arrival Scan

Mine got scan at 10:35 this morning...delivery changed to tomorrow thought instead of today.
 
You do know there is a difference in the Census Bureau, which counts people, and Customs and Border Patrol, which counts packages and immigrant people right?

You are confusing what Customs & Border Patrol does for passenger travel at an airport.

The Census Bureau does handle accounting for what the UPS employee referenced. I do not believe he is confused.

That happens when you mess with peoples iphone delivery date...... crazy people go and do things like this.

Dude, don't. Don't even joke around that this shooting has anything to do with anything happening in this thread. And "that happens when..." arguments are absolute BS. This guy had no justification for his action. Period. Stop it.
 
After this i don't want anyone talking about people in this thread overreacting! Obviously this raises the overreacting bar...

Um, I'm pretty sure this doesn't have anything to with a dude not getting his iPhone on time.
 
Two hour countdown until the next plane out to Anchorage leaves Incheon! Let's hope we get on it #Team520 ! Or should we now be called the #8Team ? :p

Incheon, Korea, Republic of 09/23/2014 8:00 P.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/23/2014 5:00 P.M. Departure Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/22/2014 5:20 P.M. Departure Scan
 
Blahh my phone has been in Incheon, Korea for 2 days. I was in the #7:10 group but seems like I missed the flights that left yesterday. Still stuck in Korea. :(
 
It looks like people in the 1:34 group are getting import scans, but none in the 1:56 group yet.

I'm 1:34 and I got squat. But then, I'm always last. The last to get our USPS mail, the last for UPS and Fedex deliveries, even "by 10:30" deliveries show u[ at exactly 10:30, no earlier. I'm used to being last.

You are correct. The specific process for any shipment of a single classification of commodity over $2500 is called AES filing, which stands for Automatic Export System, and is the system I have to file my paperwork with to clear shipments on the way out of the country.

Ugh changed from today to tomorrow.

I'm not berating anyone... I'm in the same boat... My phone was stuck in Shanghai for 3.5 days... All I'm saying is hugging and puffing on the Internet won't make I come any faster... All we need is a little patience... Just give UPS some benefit of doubt... I'm sure they wouldn't want to mess with a client like apple... Especially during launch time by intentionally ****ing up... Also I'm sure they have their best ****ing people working on this current Apple logistics...

Was just trying to help few people calm down... I guess I should just be minding my own business and let you people keep smashing your keyboards...

Have a good day...
