After reading everyone's post i was starting to get excited hoping to see some movement on my phone today I ordered Sept. 20, around 9:30 am Gold 32gb Verizon...
Same here... 32GB Gold Verizon, ordered 9/20 at 7:30am (pacific time), still "Processing".

At least you're not the only one! :)
 
Order has been "Preparing for Shipment" for approx 20 hrs. Has not shipped yet. Credit card has pending charge. Come on !! Put it in the box already !!
 
Same here...my card was charged early this morning. As others have posted here, I still won't "count my chickens" until it actually ships. Apple.com status still says "Processing..."

Gold 32gb AT&T ordered on Apple.com, confirmation email 7:41AM PST Sept 20th.

Yayyyy our phones will be plane buddies <3 2 Goldie's <3

Btw

Gold 32GB AT&T ordered through apple, confirmation received at 11:22 AM EST Sept 20th!!!
 
My friend just shipped out my Gold 32GB AT&T. He picked up my in-store pick for me a few states over.

It's such an easy way to get an iPhone. If you have friends or family that live in different areas you can search Apple store inventory around them. Then just complete the purchase for in store pickup.

But you will have to add them as an authorized user with your carrier so they can pick the phone up. But you can remove them when it's all done.

Don't take my word for it but... if you read the description for "preparing" on the Apple order status page, it says that your item is ready for shipment. Implying that all they're waiting for, is for UPS to swing by and pick it up.

Maybe both of ours will leave together, and be plane buddies!

That would be cool. Mine would be right next to his BIG brother. Mr. 64GB !:D
 
So glad to see everyone's phones moving right along! I'm just hoping mine gets a move on by Friday! Seems like the 64GB gold group is seeing some action today!
 
I think 16gb Gold group should see movement this week, orders placed on the 20th that is.
 
Sept 20th 3:28 am EST. 32GB Gold tmobile unlocked

Congrats CEmajr. I order about 15 hours after you did. Mine is still processing items. It's 19 Days Now....

64GB Gold T-Mobile GSM Unlocked. Ordered 6:00 PM EST from Apple.com on Sept. 20th
 
About half an hour after you get off the call, you get an Order Change Confirmation email:

.

Well I assume that happens to people who ordered anything but Gold. carfi ordered Space Grey. He/she might very well be getting the iPhone fulfillment from the Apple stock that is already in the US.

Many of us who ordered Gold are still waiting....

My phone was traveling from China, and stuck today in Louisville, instead of arriving New Jersey.

Louisville is one of UPS's main hubs. Almost every year, preordered iPhones travel through there and are shipped out to their local destinations. Would've been shocked if it came straight to you.

My gold iphone was "preparing for shipping" since yesterday and now it went back to "processing item" WTF! :mad::mad::mad:

anyone else having this issue ?

Saw someone mention that problem earlier. Seems to only be in the UK. Are you in the UK?
 
That is some scary ****... who the hell would be doing that? If it were the Foxconn people doing it for fun, I would be up in arms.

LOL wut!?!?!?!?

Better report that to Apple Customer Service.

I do have a screen shot for when it was preparing for shipping, i called Apple and they told me that they will contact the factory. Also they upgrade me to free "expedited shipping" .

Either way i am annoyed at the fact that i am in "processing item" once again :mad:
