My favorite one is where he quoted me where I said the phones would still be in China until 4-5 pm Monday in China, and I was right, but he is lol'ing about it.
I'm at college until Thursday so I'm hoping for a Thursday delivery. Scheduled for Friday though. Sitting in Korea now
I don't know why some of you are ganging up on Wasabi. He or She has been pretty spot on with the process so far. All that matters is we get our phones whether it be tomorrow or Thursday.
I was part of the Osaka group on flight USP105. So how I got left in Anchorage until this morning when I arrived in Louisvill at 9:05am. Just like many of you I'm waiting on an Import Scan but I don't think I'll see that until this evening. Hopefully I make it to flight UPS1214 which leaves 04:31AM EDT and arrives 05:43AM EDT which is the only flight that makes sense for my time from. I have an orginal EOD of 9/25 and I don't think it will change but if Wasabi is right which I kind of think they are my EOD will update to 9/24 and thats a PLUS. Reguardless its WAAAAAAYYYYYYY better than that Oct 1-6 EOD we all got.

LOL, luckily I have 2 pounds of coffee, which should be enough to keep me from any breakdowns before I have my phone in hand, but if I run out by then we may have a problem.
Incheon>>Anchorage Shipment
If you are still stuck in Incheon, you may be getting a departure shortly. UPS 99 is departing from Incheon to Anchorage in roughly one hour.

Post a screenshot please.
Edit: You mentioned that you were scheduled for delivery today. You were probably pulled from our group because of that early estimate.

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!
So, for those who continually berate the irritated in this thread, please - just stop.
You forgot the part where Bob gets cited for not mowing his grass
Whoa, he certainly didn't seem like he was joking and is that really something to joke about right now? No. Use your head junior. As far as unplugging from the internet, you realize the entire thread you're posting in is all about tracking flights and ******** yourself because your phone isn't here, right? Reality check there tiger.

Wow i thought the majority of us where 9/24 i guess i have a few more friends with we on 9/25
I'd just really love to know if my phone is in Incheon where it was scanned as arrived at 7:56 PM or if it left Shanghai where it was scanned as departure at both 11:24 PM and 12:03 AM. Hell, maybe it's waiting at my local UPS right now for all I know. LOL!
I just want to commend you for being honest and having integrity. Lots of shady people would have tried to keep it. Kudos to you, my friend. You give me a bit of hope for humanity.
Thanks, I guess i did my good deed for today
I'm back and she was very nice too. Met her at a dunkin donuts and she hooked me up with a DD gift card so I got some coffee
She was so happy to get her phone too. I have to say the gold is not too bad looking but i prefer the silver myself lol.
Right. I've always been 9/25. Wonder if everyone else has always been 9/25 or if it's now that date from fluctuations or delays.
