Looks like all the Florida ones shipped! Woohoo!

Too bad I got a package from UPS at 6:45PM the other night.. going to be angry if it takes them that long tomorrow. I'm suppose to sell my Evo at 4:00PM tomorrow lol!

Yeah, all this time I've been thinking "Good thing my wife is off work tomorrow. But I just remembered, I have somewhere to be at 7:30. So I really hope it comes sooner than later. :)
 
Sprint Order Status?

I've read all the pages in this thread. Like most folks here, I'm very excited about getting my new Iphone. I ordered 3 of them (1) 64GB, and (2) 16GB. I too had a lot of issues with Sprint Online Ordering and many calls to get corrected. I started in their store on Oct 14th and ended up at home ordering online Friday Oct 14th by 11am EST.

Still many more calls to get the stuck order going and 3 lines porting setup correctly, my UPS tracking issued on Oct 10th like most, my order status still shows that my order is being processed. Sprint has charged me for all 3 phones, but they never sent the confirmation email. I placed many calls to Sprint and they say that everything is fine and my order will ship, but based on the Order Status I see folks posting in this thread I'm concerned my order is not fully processed for shipping.

USP tracking label issued: 1ZX8W

Status: Your order is being processed. If you have any questions, please contact a representative at your original point of purchase.

Can anyone tell me what the Sprint Order Status above means? I am wondering if there is a problem with my order being processed or if it will ship as normal?

Edit: Update... As soon as I posted this, my UPS Tracking status updated. Whew!

Will be delivered by COB Friday... Amen... I feel like a junky must feel.
 
I have been in the same position all along, but there is no reason to panic or get so distraught. Think of the number of boxes ups has to scan this morning and relax a bit. My tracking still shows label created and that's it. I did just get the email from my choice ups saying it will be delivered tomorrow. People have been saying all along there may not be updates until today or tomorrow because there has been no reason to origin scan them, as sprint still had them in a warehouse. I would imagine as ups gets their hands on them this morning, more and more updates will be coming. I am sure sPrint and ups are deeply sorry that your phone didn't recieve all of thier attention and get scanned first.

Touche.
 
My family and I ordered four iPhones, 3 32gb blacks, and 1 16gb white...

the weight of the box UPS has is only 3.30 pounds.

I thought the weight of one was 1.10 pounds....

Uh oh...

From what I've seem in this thread is one box is 1.10 lbs, two is 1.80 lbs and three is 2.60 lbs, so 3.30 lbs sounds like it would be correct. The phones are only 4.9 ounces each, so the boxes and outer box is what is making up the additional weight. :)

Man, it was horrible for a good majority of us, all over the span of 2 1/2 days. Grown adults on a web forum going crazy over a cell phone. lol

All is good now that we have a solid delivery date. If you don't have one and you have a tracking number, fret not as it'll pop in. Finally it feels like a heavy weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
 
Woot! I ordered 2 iPhone 32gb white and black one but only my black one has gotten updated from ups! Anybody in that same boat?
 
October 14th...

I went online and had a chat with the representative of the phone company ( I chose to go with Sprint, don't laugh). Anyway my order says : In Transit, 1 delivery day left. I guess its coming from Kentucky.(im in Ohio). This is my FIRST apple device, besides "borrowing" my sisters ipod every now and then. Any suggestions on what I just install or apps I should get??

I was just pondering this today... I'm 28 years old, and stressing out over an iPhone shipment like an 8 year old worried that Santa won't bring him the toy he wants most. It's ridiculous, and I'm somewhat ashamed of my behavior. :eek:

No worries. Now the next step is to be patient enough to wait until tomorrow, if we can manage that!!

Anybody know the pickup time for "Hold for Will Call" at UPS? And will they allow me to pick it up without a first attempt?

Mine hasn't :confused:

Still says the shipping label has been created.

37 here. lol. I fully embrace my inner child on stuff like this. Even my 70-something parents are a little excited. They haven't been obsessively refreshing websites since Sunday night, but hey, noone's perfect. :)


8:52 AM is my official Origin Scan from KY.

YES!!! My shipment just updated to "shipping address changed!" It shows the proper city and state. And says it's in Kentucky now. I might get this thing at the right place and right time after all! I can't believe Sprint didn't **** this up. :)

Myself (28), my brother (26), and my fiancée (23) are all refreshing the tracking pages like crazy. She's actually re-arranging her day to be home to sign for the phones and hopefully dropping mine off at work for me on her way to school. It's my first iPhone so I think the excitement is somewhat justified at least.

You can call UPS customer service and tell them to hold your pakage so you can then pick it up. There is no set time just call them before the package is on the truck to go out for shipment to your house, because once its on the truck you either have to wait at home or wait until 8pm when the truck gets back at the terminal. ( I used to work at a The UPS Store):)

You'l be good. Boxes have weight.

Also, I too have tracking info in my tracking screen. They say it's in Kentucky and will be here tomorrow. Ootoot!
 
FINALLY! Mine is in Kentucky as well! I really hope it does come before end of day tomorrow. My UPS man likes to come around um 7!

Did you chat on Sprint's website? I can't even find where to chat with them.

I tried this already. UPS is telling me that per Sprint, they can't hold it at the location until after one attempt to deliver has been made. Even called Sprint and they confirmed this. I can't even use the 2 hour delivery window option that the UPS MyChoice feature offers, as Sprint isn't allowing any changes to the deivery, etc.

But on the other hand don't you miss that excitement that came waiting for Dec 25 as a kid? It's nice every once in a while to relive something similar.

I've enjoyed this even if it's made this week kind of a waste as far as work goes. Next week I'll buckle down and make up for it but this week I'll continue to relive some of that old excitement.
