Pope's visit will impact UPS deliveries in NYC, DC, and Philly [CONFIRMED]

[bhenny1]

I work in one of the buildings where the Pope will be. No package deliveries that day. I'll get my phone Monday.

"Popegate".....

Can't believe Apple couldn't of allowed NYC folks to receive on Wednesday.

Or even Thursday. This is kinda ridiculous.

I'll get my phone Monday.

I almost feel like this should be illegal.

I almost feel like this should be illegal.

It's going to certainly drive up the price of Craiglist phones...lots of impatient people and even less supply.

You have 3 days to rally the Yanks into boycotting the Pope's visit. It's on you if it doesn't deliver on time. Set...go...

A bunch of children think their toys are more important than the spiritual leader or God himself.

Yes, but I know my new iPhone exists.

 

[Granny_Smith]

Weird that Apple says "iPhone 6s" in the email even though I ordered the Plus.

Yeah that weirded me out and I immediately checked my support profile to be sure i did in fact get the 6s+ haha

God doesn't pay my rent. And neither does the Pope for that matter. That 6s+ is my moneymaker.

uhh what? The Pope tweets, he's the digital Pope (self proclaimed), surely he would understand the significance.

My zip code is 10002 mauahhahaha so lucky lol

 

[cmjars]

I feel bad for all of you that are effected. Apple really should have delivered your phones early.

 

[Granny_Smith]

My zip code is 10002 mauahhahaha so lucky lol

Mine is 10005 and i still got the email. Did you not get it?

 

[aka777]

Cant you guys just hold them at the local UPS CS center and pick them up yourself?

 

[Juansito]

Ordered on ATT but UPS says 10002 isn't effected. 10001 and 10007 are though....lucked out i guess lol

I think they sent that to everyone in the NYC area regardless of if they're in the designated zip codes.

You can wait till money if the Pope get in you way. Rent or not, you will have to wait.

 

[bruinsrme]

The Pope has a cool hat, wonder if he would trade it for an iPhone 6S+

 

[vikingjunior]

Even if your in the city and not in a affected zone I would imagine this gridlock will have a domino effect and I would by all means put a hold at UPS hub.

Amazon had it right. Drone drop would work well here.

I'm sure that the pope's security would love that.

You know how old that post is? I'm pretty sure the window for smartypants comments is closed.
