Preparing for shipment since Saturday - iPhone 7 plus, Silver, 256 GB, (ATT). How long does this stage usually take? Credit card has been charged.
 
I still can't believe people are finding these. I've tried a few times right when the reservations opened up, there has only been one day with a 7 Plus model available in all of Utah (it was a 32 GB Rose Gold for AT&T)

Maybe I juts got lucky at the time I looked, either way the possibility was there.
I just didn't want to deal with the hassle of getting it and not being able to cancel my order since it was in PFS.
 
UPS has changed the ETA of my iPhone just a little bit. Bumped it a day to the 22nd now. I knew it wasn't going to get from China to Ohio in a day, lol. According to tracking it's still in China.

Mine got bumped also, got delayed from tomorrow to Thursday or Friday. :|
 
And this thread is slowly turning into the original "Apple Store preorder" thread with everyone talking about their flights.

Might have to start another thread:

Roll call - Oct. 4th - Oct. 10th @#$! HASN'T SHIPPED YET

Gah! Just dying. I chatted with Apple and asked about expedited shipping (I leave for a 10-day trip before 10/10), hoping maybe it would scootch me up a bit (or that Ethan would take pity on me and do the same), but all I heard was (“we’re seeing a lot of pre-orders hang in [PFS] for longer this time. We’re not sure why.”). Blah.
 
So those still stuck in ZhengZhou, China - do we know what the next flight will be for those phones?

Won't be for nearly 24 hours if the routine holds true. Will probably pop up in a few hours and say 15 hours until departure. Didn't appear to be a flight out of there today at all. So there's definitely some kind of hold up.

Ethan hit me with that one too.

I spoke to Ethan too last week. Lol
 
So I got a departure scan from ZhengZhou, China,right as UPS77 was taking off,however an hour later I got an arrival scan showing it arrived back in ZhengZhou, China. I'm hoping it's just an error.

I think as most states that's another hub and you should be taken off with us by 4:30am china time according to some folks.

I'm being patient but a co-worker of mine just told me that he got a text from AT&T saying his 7 Plus (Black, 128GB), that he ordered through AT&T last week on 10/14/16, was shipped out today. WTH?

UPS77 takes off out of Shenzhen, not ZhengZhou (ZhengZhou is 15 hours away by car)
