Sitting here waiting for the brown truck and am curious how your phone delivery time compares to your usual delivery time. Those of you that have your phones, did they get delivered earlier than usual, around the same time or later?

It's only 9:35 AM on the west coast and I'd be surprised to see my UPS driver here before 3 PM.
 
UPS usually shows up to my house between 5-8pm. I buy a lot of stuff from Amazon Prime so they come here quite often.

The last delivery I had from them (on Wednesday) didn't come until 7:55pm :rolleyes:. Hopefully that isn't the case today ...

I remember when FedEx delivered my iPhone 5 on launch day two years ago they didn't show up until almost 9pm.
 
12:42 and still waiting. UPS usually show up around 5. I was hoping for better though.

My Launch Day iPhone 5 came before 10 as per tracking. Apparently, Apple didn't pay for that service this year. :(

Should've done 'hold for pickup.'
 
11:48 CST and no truck. Text alert said between 12-4 which is pretty typical around here. Around the holidays he is usually here between 6-8. There have been rare instances of him showing up before noon. No such luck today! I'm not expecting miracles as my 6+ hadn't even shipped until 10:45pm last night.
 
In what way is relevant for anyone? The UPS drivers will be out all day long delivering iPhones, if one person's driver is early or late it has absolutely no bearing on yours unless you happen to be their neighbor (in which case you already know by the time they post anyway).
 
I have a sign on my door for Fedex to knock loudly. I have a fear that he will come just at the time I step into the *******!
 
I used UPS My Choice (which is free) and told them to hold it at the facility (which is only 2 miles away) and I picked it up myself this morning. If I let UPS deliver it I could have waited until this evening.

East Coast - here usually by 1015 or 1030 - today a little after 1100. Said he had a lot of apple boxes, but I was his first apple delivery.
 
UPS .. Usually for me its around 4-6pm. But my cases came in yesterday from amazon at noon. Hoping for the same today :cool:
 
If anything UPS was early for me. He did look a bit wore out, I assume from delivering all those iPhones.
