I ordered right at midnight on the 20th and got the Sprint 16GB Silver 5s, and mine is being delivered on Thursday according to UPS. It just arrived in Alaska today and says it departed Anchorage at 2:53PM local time.

I dont understand why most people got Tuesday and Wednesday as their delivery dates. :

Still crossing my fingers that UPS updates and says it will be Scheduled for early delivery tomorrow.

Are you in Arizona? That might be why. Probably can't get it from Louisville to AZ in time to get on the delivery trucks in the am for same day.

It may very well be. My 5S is in transit to Louisville from Anchorage and it's scheduled EOD tomorrow.

Yes I am in AZ!

Did you have an original delivery date of Thursday? When did yours change?
 
Well I hope they make it to you tomorrow. Another day would be agonizing! I now know far too much about the flight patterns from Seoul-Anchorage-Louisville than I should. :)

Yes me too, so jealous of those who received iPhones today!
 
Anyone know, if my phone says EOD, how can I tell what time it will be delivered? I cannot join mychoice as it cannot find public records with my name on it.
 
Just cancelled my order through Apple.com...


Going to try my luck tomorrow morning at the Apple store an hour from here. Wish me luck guys!

Going right into the deep end, eh? Good luck to ya!

Although (if I were you) I might have kept my place in line, only cancelling when it was guaranteed that you would get one.
 
Yeah Western Canada :). It just seems odd since it was shipped yesterday but just started moving today from their facility!

I guess the phone must be coming from Apple Canada HQ in Markham, Ontario.

Unfortunately I don't have the same luck as you, I ordered the 5s. Not sure when the Canadian orders pallet will arrive, hopefully soon.
 
iPhone 5s, Gold 32MB, Verizon.

Ordered from Verizon last Friday - order complete within 1 minute of sales opening.

It shipped on Monday and arrived at the FedEx facility here at 8AM this morning. Since delivery was scheduled for tomorrow, FedEx decided to just sit on it all day today.

And before anyone asks: no, you cannot go in to pick it up.

I have 2 days off starting tomorrow... I'll find one no matter how long I have to look. :) Reason I cancelled it tonight is because the upgrade can take a few hours to go back, so I didnt want to find one then have it caught up because I didnt have an upgrade in Apples system.

Go early and you'll know pretty fast if you'll be able to get "something". The Apple people will usually be able to tell you if a shipment is coming in. My coworker got one in 25 minutes while at another Apple store his son was told the wait time was about 6 hours.
 
My iPhone 5s 32gb GSM that I ordered at 3:30 am EST on September 20th has been stuck in zhengzhou since 6:30 am EST, according to the UPS website. Is anyone else in this same predicament?

Me too. Thursday delivery. But I'd bet it's actually en route across the Pacific. Check in the morning and you're likely to see it just took a while for the UPS tracking to catch up.

EOD = by End Of Day
 
My gold 64GB 5S ordered at exactly 12AM on AT&T's website should be shipping within the next business day as the Various SIM just switched to "Processing." That usually means the phone is ready to ship.

Yeah I'll be there an hour before they open. Thanks for the info though, now I know what to expect. Thanks again dude.

Yeah I know, but some people have been getting timeframes which would be enormously useful!
 
Iphone 5s 64gb Gold model unlocked

I finished buying the Iphone 5s 64gb Gold model unlocked t mobile about 12:16 on the 20th, I got e email saying:
Available to ship: 7- 10 business days
Delivers: Oct 8 - Oct 11 by Standard Shipping

Anybody else waiting for this model? I started my order at 1201, but through apples website, thats why it took so long.
I live in bolivia, the phone is being delivered at my sisters in atlanta ga, So I will have to wait another 2 weeks probably after my sister gets it.... so sad!!! :(
