When my phone left the factory last Friday, it stayed in China till Monday morning. There is a flight on Sunday (Saturday evening EDT), but only if it's supposed to be delivered on a Monday, will it get on that flight.
Who knows... maybe you will get lucky!

Theres 2 flights going out tonight so might get lucky. Im on the same order.
Couldn't let the two of you have all the fun...lmao...jk...after seeing your pics, reading your angst and my order being in limbo for the past 3 weeks couldn't wait 2 more (Nov.1) so I took my chances cancelling my order to reserve one via in store pickup...MIRACULOUSLY got a 64GB Gold after weeks of hunting
Fingers crossed for everyone else in the struggle
Nice!!! Congrats!!

Ok, so if it sits till Monday, I shouldn't get pissed. Got ya. I'll try to relax and have a good weekend.
When to Apple store today this morning before they open, there where like 10 scalpers in line. They took the only Verizon 64GB gold. I had to talk to them, luckily I can speak their language, but I still had to pay them extra to get it. There is really no other way in getting the Verizon device only other than to line up in the early morning and fight with the scalpers. Meanwhile, hoping they have the phone you want. One thing Apple can do is to limit 2 device-only per day per person to eliminating the scalper issue and let more people have access to the phone.
Until next year, fellows!

Wow and you guys ordered on sep 20 and you're still waiting for your shipment. It's been a month now. Apple should have a better inventory process. This is Not good for the customers. Apple should not let their customers wait for more than a month to get their iPhones. Even at their local stores, there's hardly any iPhone 5s and it's now oct 19. What is apple thinking?
just out of curiousity how much did you end up paying?
our 10/24-10/28 shipdate delivery on Nov 1, has now shipped and i'm receiving it on Tuesday 10/22

Extra $100 from the scalper, but it's a Verizon phone. When I do sell it when iPhone 6 is out, i might be able to get more than AT&T version. We will see. I need the phone when I leave end of Oct and I can't take the chance of not having the phone while I am oversea with my work.
Yes all Verizon iPhone are unlock, but very hard to get them. My Apple store would not sell me device only, if I do a in-store pickup reservation. The only way for me is to line up in the morning and hope they have the iPhone I want while fighting with all the scalpers
The unicorn has landed. I repeat, the unicorn has landed!!!!!
She arrived just after 5:00 pm. Here's some preliminary pictures... restoring from backup now, so maybe some more after backup is completed.
Unicorns, Show Ponies, Where's the Beef?!!!!!
Called Apple about my order. Said they'd give me next day shipping. Asked about why some customers are receiving their phones before others. They said more than likely they ordered a different color/storage/carrier. She said that each carrier is on it's own conveyer. So I guess certain combos are leaving earlier than others. Whatever, I'll keep being patient.
