I've been waiting all darn day for my phone which went out for delivery at 6:30 AM this morning. I took a day off from work so I'd be home to sign for it. Do you think it could come early ? Hell no ! It's 3:15 PM and I'm still waiting ! I could have gone to work and left at 4:00. Just a great ending to a stressful process. It better come today, I can't take another day off the job. AARGG !
Got a tip for us?

AARGG !So mine is saying preparing for shipment, if it ships tomorrow and I have 2-3 day shipping, about when should I expect delivery?
High five! I had no updates or anything positive to say, just lurked in the shadows! Haha. I've never been so worked up over any electronic device. I'm guessing you still love yours?
How can I not still love it?
Waited three weeks for the damn thing to leave the factory. When I thought UPS was gonna make it smooth sailing, their incompetence kicked in and added another week. In the end it took a whole damn month for the thing to show up.
I have already made October 18th a national holiday, in the calendar. Won't be forgetting that date, anytime soon.
Congrats on yours, I hope it will ship tomorrow!
So far from what I've been seeing. Standard shipping is about five days. So 2-3 day, will definitely be 4 or less. I have Next Day shipping, I'm guessing that will take at least 2!
Have patience you must. If it's out for delivery, it will arrive soon. Unless UPS is trolling you.
I'll make a guess. For the people who have their phones preparing for shipment right now, I will say that the phones will be shipped tomorrow. For the people who have 2-3 business days it will be delivered by wednesday. For the people who have standard by friday. I am just guessing so don't take my word for it.

Patience is my middle name !! I am completely out now !!!

I feel for you... hang in there. When they came to deliver last week, didn't come until bloody 5 pm. It has to come today and at that time, then you can go bursting out of your home and tackle the driver.
Mine shipped on october 19th and delivered to on 22nd october in new york. (Expedited delivery)
My status changed in one day.. October 18th status changed to preparing for shipping and October 19th Shipped. October 22nd received in New York.
Wow that's fast, I hope it's the same for the rest of us.
And is expedited delivery the same as 2-3 business days shipping?
For anyone ssti waiting, just forget it and do the iphone checker site. I have scored 3 gold phones in the last 6 days EASILY. Check every day at 2:00-2:20 / 6:00-6:20 EST. You will have your phone within 2-3 days. I know canceling your order sounds gruesome after a this time but I did after 20 days or so and glad I did. Otherwise I would still be waiting on the first one to ship.
Well it's morning over in China, so they are about to begin their work day. Let's see if we will get our phones shipped.
That was fast. So if the phone ships tomorrow 10/25 from china, i should (hopefully) be getting the phone sometime on tuesday 10/29 or wednesday 10/30 at most. Would that be a good guest?
Preparing for shipping

One of my friends who got her phone on launch day, dropped the phone on the ground today, and here is a stone the screen is broken. she had purchase an Apple Care+ Plan and decide go to store tomorrow to make a replacement for only $79 bucks.
That sounds great , and I have some impulse to buy one Apple Care+ for my new Iphone5s, do you buy it and is that worth for $100 dollars ?

Idk, because for some reason I always thought the other 2 iPhones I got after my 1st 4 one under warranty for free and one out of it for 140 were refurbished. Because the first the back panel went out after les than a use and my current one has a whorrible battery problem lol. But I mean apple care definitely is worth it it does cover a lot. But can I even get apple care, in their system over technically owned my phone for a month so my 30 day grace period donzo
