Shew that sucks, you are so close :) thanks for the info...that's why I was asking when everyone's shipped vs the stated ship date. I didn't think the date they stated was exact since mine said they "start shipping nov 15th"

How long after you received your pre order email did you actually order it? Wonder if that makes a difference.

Has anyone else with that stated ship date get a ship notification yet?

Hope you get that ship notification soon!

I was able to get on and order mine within about two hours after the email came in. Only problem is, two hours is a long time with eager case fanatics!
 
Just for everyone's reference, I ordered and was listed as a November 1st shipping date. I received a tracking number yesterday (November 8th). The shipping date listed is when your batch STARTS shipping, but depending on what position you are within that batch, you may be shipped after the initial date as I was.

Yes ofc..

The shipping date isn't when the product arrives to your door lol.
 
Just an update for those of you trying to guess your shipment date: I ordered my Sector on October 17 and I just now got shipping confirmation (November 9). My case was on the October 8 shipping estimate group.

My post was for those that were trying to guess when they're product would arrive based on the shipping date listed on their order. I never implied that the shipping date is when the product will arrive. Rather, I was simply letting some of the posters on this thread know that their case may or (more likely) may not ship on the date listed on their order.

Rebuild the sentence please.
 
I can show you my badge if you want ! =)
At least, expect unserious answers if you put out a "not-very-serious-question" (smirk).

I wouldn't be surprised....

However, I believe if you go back and read my posts in question, you will not see a single question in there. So I'm not sure where you are coming from with all of this. I was just trying to help out other members who thought that their case would ship exactly on the day stated.

It's a legitimate concern so people don't get mad or let down if it takes a week or two after the specified ship date to actually ship.
 
And from what I was told directly by element was that if you didn't use your own ordering code you were going to the back of the line. So everyone who lined jumped and didn't wait their turn is going to be waiting even longer!!!
 
Has anyone gotten a black or silver one and can post pics?

Unfortunately I doubt anyone has gotten one :/

They will start arriving within the next 2-3 days though so keep your eyes peeled!

The shipping confirmation finally came! Just to let you know, this delivery date will differ depending on where you live (I'm in North Carolina) and what type of shipping you ordered (I purchased the already overpriced $12 ground shipping).

Cool! What color did you get? Black or white iPhone?
 
Dang I'm in NC too I paid for next day (I'm on the 15th ship date) so if it does ship on the 15th ill have mine on the 16th too I knew from last time ground takes forever to NC so i prepared this time.....fingers crossed lol
 
It is an FE (first edition) case so I think it only comes in a slate color. Neither the black or white option is available in that type.

Right but the black and silver are available now. No longer considered first edition I suppose.

That's right, FE and SE is different.
But both has been available for preorder on Day 1.

Personally I think the silver edition is better than FE with the white iPhone.

And for the record; the only difference is the laser engraved E. which to me is useless.
