That's the order they shipped, I guarantee you the iPhones that got shipped yesterday/two days ago were made in the same timeframe/batch as the ones getting shipped tonight.
But... its not the first batch stateside which is what I'm talking about.

I consider my iPhone from the first batch being in went into "preparing for shipment" right in the beginning like everyone else's.
In case you all are annoyed like I am with the local times on the UPS site, or for people in the batch shipping out next, I made a schedule.
This starts off with the second batch in the warehouse, so adjust those dates if you're a batch ahead or behind, also I've converted the time to EDT (EST in daylight savings) so you can subtract hours if needed.

When I got out of bed this morning I had no intention of getting an iPhone 5S. Due to finances I was going to wait for the iPhone 6.
That all changed after I had accidentally dropped my iPhone 4S (which qualified for an upgrade) and the back glass smashed on pieces.
So off to the Apple Store I went...
My original plan was simply to get my 4S swapped and wait for the iPhone 6 before upgrading. When I told the Apple Genius this was what I wanted to do he told me that AppleCare wouldn't approve a swap because the price of repairing the backplate glass would be $20.00 cheaper. So, I said no problem.
So, after that was done I thought to myself find out how much is the trade in value of my iPhone 4S.
The salesperson told me my White iPhone 4S 64GB would get me $205.00. So, I'm thinking ok that is 1/2 the price of the $399 iPhone 5S 64 GB. Maybe now I can afford an iPhone 5S?
So after that, I say to myself go the extra mile, for the hell of it and ask what is the availability of the Gold iPhone 5S (I could always come back in how many weeks he tells me they'd be coming in and trade then). The salesperson then asks me what storage and carrier would I be interested in?
I tell him 64GB AT&T. (Reason for AT&T is I still want my Unlimited Data from my first iPhone, the iPhone 3GS.)
He comes back from the stockroom and tells me "You're in luck we have all 3 colors for the AT&T 64GB!"
I almost fell on the floor!
Everyone here has been writing that the Gold is NOWHERE!
So you got a guy here who this morning had no idea he be getting any iPhone 5S and now long and behold he not only has an iPhone 5S but it's the most rare one, the Gold iPhone 5S and he got it for friggin 1/2 price!
FYI: The Apple Store I went to is: Apple Store; Coconut Point, Estero, FL
Hey I'm not either! Enjoy yours on Wednesday with me!
Still stuck in preparing to ship. The phone will arrive a day after I hang myself.

What'd you order?
if I had known it was going to be delayed, I wouldn't have paid for expedited shipping. Not that Apple cares ...
Im in the 1-3 day shipping group and I ordered 2 16gb tmobile iPhones, one gold and one space gray. My order has been stuck at preparing for shipment since saturday night. Has anyone else ordered 2? Hopefully it will ship tonight since its the 3rd day.
That's where I'm stuck at. I don't think tonight is the 3rd day.
Next shipment group should be, unless you don't count friday.
Any updates from the "Available to ship: October" group?
I'm only counting business days (Friday and Monday).
