The "I gave up hope for a 9/16 delivery" thread.

Many of you Negative Nancy's are going to be surprised when your credit cards are charged this evening and then a delivery driver hands you your phone tomorrow. The speed at which this can happen is alarmingly fast.

If Positive Polly wants to say I can still get my 7+ black 256 tomorrow after seeing my reads on UPS, Support Page and my CC statement move like an Egyptian pyramid....lol, more power to "Polly"

After all, my dates are 9/20-9/22.

Glass is half full.... Just no way of knowing whats in the glass.

Outside of that, not gonna happen. Dates are too far off with the expectation set too far out. Im a 04-10 member and at best I expect this year to be end of Sept.

I'm a 9-23 member, and its over for this Friday. It takes 20 hours from China to Alaska, customs clearance. then to the hub. Then it has to get to your area.

Its not happening for any of us. In fact, based on Apple's "sold out" announcement, I wouldn't be surprised to see dates slip, not move forward.
 
Exactly. Tomorrow is done. Acceptance of that will get many through the disappointment. Not many ordering a plus in any shade of black stood much of a chance. I was :22 after on my confirmation. Many posted sooner completions that haven’t moved. If anyone has a date, I would bank a win if you happen to get it days before your expected arrival time.
I’ve said it before, im not mad at all about it. I’m surprised that some that ordered within mins were already into the end of the month and mins later that slipped to oct. And oct also lines up with many who ordered only a couple of hours later

For anyone hanging on to tomorrow, sit back, have a drink, and accept it. Sanity will stay longer.

To those with successfully closed ebay auctions at $1500 stating “ill be waiting in line for the jb 256gb iPhone”, good luck. I smell negative reviews coming your way.

If my date gets moved up I may just sale mine on Ebay. These Jet Blacks 7+'s will be scarce and we all could use that to our advantage. Just an option though. lol
 
I ordered around 3:15 (EST), as soon as I could get passed the main page, and I got 10.4-10 estimate. I'm guessing it will deliver sooner than the estimate they gave me, but at the same time, I was told this would be the most unpopular iPhone ever. Totally confused how this even happened.
 
Go ahead and toss me on the list now. This is the first year of pre-ordering right after the store opened that I will not receive on launch day. Now to get my boss to let me change dates on coming to work late.
 
Finally got an update. My card just got charged & prepped for ship:

7+ stealth black 256 att, order confirmed @ 1:15 MST, dates pre-call were 27-29, then 20-22, now 23-27.

I actually refuse to keep checking. I know what my dates were. Checking is bad for blood pressure. Maybe next week ill check or start checking regularly. Or ill just wait for the notification. Although I do have apple set to VIP to get alerted on the off chance of card problems.

Holy crap my status just went from "Processing" to "Preparing for shipment"! Jet Black Plus 256 GB on ATT, pre-ordered about 12:05 PST. Delivery dates are still the same, Sept 26-Oct 3. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope? No tracking, not in my support profile. But my card did get charged!
