BOYCOTT UPS FOR LIFE.
I just knew the flights coming in last night would get import scan, laugh, and pass us in KY.
Never again, UPS. Never again.
And Apple, you've got some explaining to do as well. Now I wish I had milked you for a free case to make up for this unacceptable experience.

My online chat with Brittany at UPS:
Initial Question: Why is package sitting on Louisville for over 30 hours?
Brittany M.: Hi, this is Brittany M.. I'll be happy to assist you.
Paul: Thanks!
Paul: Just wondering why my package(s) have sat in Lousville since 2:00 am yesterday with no movement?
Paul: Louisville. Typo on my part. Sorry.
Paul: 1ZV5FXXXXXXXXXX and
Paul: 1ZWXXXXXXXXXXX
Brittany M.: Just a moment while I review your tracking information.
Brittany M.: Thank you for your patience. Unfortunately I am not sure when the package will move, however, I am showing that the packages are still scheduled for delivery on 09/25/14.
Paul: Okay…no worry of a delay? There's a HUGE internet thread out there (over 10,000 posts) about this particular shipment. It's fascinating…. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1776647/
Brittany M.: Thank you for that information. I certainly understand your concern, however, at this time I am not showing that this package is encountering a delay.
Paul: Great, thank you!
Brittany M.: No problem. Do you have any other questions?
Paul: Guess not. Have a great day!
Brittany M.: Thanks for contacting us. Enjoy your day.
Brittany M. has disconnected.
You have to realize, the reps have no more information than what you can see on the tracking website. Its usually a waste of time to call them unless you have a problem requiring the rep to call someone else to solve it.
Mail?? Why would he possibly want to go through this ordeal all over again...? Go to the store and have them show you the new phone before you accept it...
Nope, maybe we will get the import scan between 12-3pm like the others did yesterday?
Anyone with arrival scans in Incheon get a departure scan today yet? Mine is still showing arrival in Incheon yesterday at 8.00p local time as the latest activity. Beginning to think that Friday delivery is not in the cards now if it is not out of Korea today.
not here... I am assuming I'll get mine at 1-2 AM to make the 4am typical overnight 'by end of the day' flight... some 2 days after it arrived.
He picked his phone up at UPS and it had a scratch on it when he opened it. If he cannot exchange it at an Apple store the next best thing is to use it while they send a replacement in the mail so he will not be out of his new iPhone in the interim.
Are you proposing he open it at ups and refuse acceptance?
If so than he will be out of a phone for longer than what I suggested.
I'm suggesting he take it to Apple Store and exchange it. He obviously has an appt with the genius bar.
Yeah, I figured that. But I'm just sitting here at work and what the hell else am I going to do my job? Pfffffft ..
I know. I was initially stressed about the delivery process. That part has cleared up. NOW the worry of a flawless device. A small minuscule scratch will not throw me into a fit, tiny dust particles, dead pixels, vertical lines on the screen will p!ss me off
Never had a problem with my last 3 iPhones, don't want one now - especially out of the box.

Could not agree more.
so just picked up my phone from ups, it is 6+ and the packing box was so tiny that i assumed they just sent me the replacement phone box which only has phone in it and nothing else and i was getting furious, when got back home i didnt want to open it without filming whats inside box just in case i need proof to show apple picked up my camera and battery was dead, put the battery on charge and started walking from one end of corridor to other waiting it to pick some charge 10 minutes later it had some charge so plugged it and opened box and it was the original packaging i was amazed how tiny height box it is. the box wrapper does show its been through hell, the shrint wrap is all scratched and looks like it was stuck in assembly belt and scratched or something but the ups box looks fine from oustide and inside. now im waiting on my camera battery to charge so i can film the unboxing. cant wait to see the phone , excieted excieted.

I just got back. What defects ! What's everyone talking about
If it helps any, mine was in Korea mid day yesterday (thought no way it will be here today).
It arrived at 7:52am ET at the UPS hub outside Philadelphia waiting for me to pick it up.
No updates on the tracking page, but I got an email from UPS that my delivery was changed from the 26th to tomorrow, the 25th. I had mine set for will call since I won't be home Friday, so I cancelled will call, I hope that doesn't screw things up.
