I think UPS has been reading this forum and holding your phones to wait for rest of us being delivered too.....
They would have a lot of expensive items (which they would be completely liable for) in hold up. I don't think UPS would want to take on such a risk.
Once I saw other people's statuses updating but not ours, that's the first thing that came to mind. It's weird because usually there aren't any layovers in Incheon.
Last year when I ordered the 5, it shipped on a sunday, and arrived on wednesday of the same week. That was with the basic shipping option. It was in Canada, by tuesday morning.
This year has truly been an anomaly... I was quite surprised when given the scheduled delivery date of a full week after the shipped date. Maybe UPS knows something we don't? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
Ya well this year did break a record for apple so I'm sure UPS is constantly trying to play catch-up. Maybe they can get my phone to my place by tomorrow ... who knows.

I think they took our two phones out of yesterday's shipment specifically to freak us out.

+1000 to this!
I order the gold iPhone 5s 32 gig on 9/20 @ 9:45AM EST, it's been 16 business days and still on "processing item" status!! . WTF! It's so annoying, i hate to see my order take this long, makes no sense.
Welcome to the club! Ordered the same at 7:30 AM Eastern 9/20. And too add insult to injury my status changed last week to preparing to ship and then back to processing. My credit card had a pending charge that has since disappeared. I got sooo excited.. for nothing! I know everyone is sick of hearing us whine but sometimes you have to get it out! Certainly seems like a messed up process that people that ordered after us are getting their phones and that those of us who ordered 9/20 are getting them at the same time as people ordering just a few days ago.
I'm crying inside now...
Just like Ron Burgundy, when Baxter got kicked off the highway.

Doesn't look likely. If you've already gotten a scan, then I most likely won't. Looks like I'm jailed here at least one more day
I'm so sad right now... this feels like Pocket Planes, and my piece of cargo keeps getting left on "layover". What ever happened to go old fashion customer service. I'm just waiting for all my progress to be gone, and my phone is still in Foxconn's factory.
I don't think anything bad happened to your phone. It's simply that mine is supposed to be delivered tomorrow and gets priority bc I paid for express. Yours will still arrive on time.
Yes, the same thing happened to my iphone. It went back from preparing for shipping to processing. So far, my order is suppose to ship on October 24-28. Hopefully, it ships sooner, thing is i don't know how sooner.

Thanks for keeping your fingers crossed! Mine finally came in a little while ago.
On my phone now, so not sure how to post a screen shot. Looks like we're on our way to Canada!
