gold iPhone 5s

Got shipping notice at midnight with tracking but no ETA. Checked later this morning UPS updated with ETA of Wednesday between 3-7pm.

Ordeered from Apple Store at 0301 EST 32gb Gold
 
You can use "Deliverys Status"

Its an App for iPhone and a widget for macs dashboard. Its really cool. It tracks all your shipping and send you notifications for every update!

Well, you should get yours first... mine shipped at 5:18am :D

And now begins what I call the "Nerd Vigil."

That is when we have a Safari window open to the tracking page, and we keep hitting "Reload" to see where the hell our new stuff is! :D

Wow, I was expecting my iPhone 5s to arrive Friday at the earliest. Just checked UPS, this is a nice surprise!

Scheduled Delivery:
Wednesday, 09/25/2013, By End of Day

Last Location:
Arrived - ZhengZhou, China, Monday, 09/23/2013

I am in Columbus, Ohio.

I ordered my 64GB Space Gray AT&T iPhone 5s right when the Apple Store app went live at 12:03 PDT. Originally it said "Preparing for Shipment Available to ship: 1 - 3 business days Delivers: Sep 30 - Oct 2 by Standard Shipping"

Amazing that it could be in China today (although I think they are 12 hours ahead of me) and here at my house in 2 days. It is going to arrive around the same time that my accessories that I also ordered at the same time that were shipped from locations already in the US. :)

How are people able to tell which flight their shipment is on?
Click to expand...

Pure guesswork based upon timing of scans and scheduled departures from flightaware.com. They seem to be a couple hours behind on scanning them in/out once the plane lands/takes off.
 
I don't think my experience could be more convenient. I walked in the Apple store (Austin), asked if they had 5S for AT&T, was told yes, in 64GB space gray. I said I'll take two, waited about 5 minutes, sales person had two for me, 5 minutes later was out the door.

I'm getting mine on Wednesday too. I actually put it in Will Call so that i can pick it up at 8am :D No more of this stupid waiting at home :eek:

I've tried that before and they said Apple required them to make a delivery attempt first and it was out of their control...?

Yes but I think usually when I tried that the only available dates were dates after the original delivery date.

I was able to complete the request through My Choice and it said I will be notified when it arrives on Wednesday for pickup. Perhaps since this an order and not a pre-order, the shipping restrictions are more lax :)

Ah, that's a good theory. So help me out. I feel like I've had this issue before. Clicking "change delivery" doesn't seem to show any options. I'm logged in...
