FYI, my 16 g gold ATT just changed to preparing for shipment and my CC was charged :)

Ordered 8:24 AM PST. Good luck to everyone who is still waiting!
 
I finally bought a Verizon iPhone 5S 64GB Space Grey today at Best Buy. It was the last one. I traded in my iPhone 5 at GameStop for some cash. Then used that to purchase the iPhone 5S. And must I say "WOW" at this phone!!!

So glad to have it!! Woo!
 
My 5s departed Louisville this afternoon. I wonder where it's headed... if it is the UPS sorting facility in Mirabel Quebec there is a good chance it'll be delivered this Friday Oct 11th (which was the original date before it mysteriously changed to the 15th on the web tracker).
 
I ordered a gold 16gb t mobile 5s from the apple store on October 1st along with a beige case. The case has shipped. The phone is still in "processing". I selected the fast shipping option. Is there any chance I will get the phone before October 23rd?

Highly doubtful considering people who ordered theirs on 9/20 are still in the "processing" stage as well. I ordered mine on 9/20 at around 12:07am PST and I barely received on 10/8.

What a milk run... Arrived at Mount Hope / Hamilton in Ontario. At least it is in Canada now. Wonder where it will be routed next...
 
Still stuck in the processing loop!

Ordered a 32GB AT&T Space Gray 5S on October 4 and it was shipped today, October 10, from China. I hope you all get yours soon, I would be so angry waiting a month+ for this thing.
 
Woke up to a nice surprise this morning, my 64 gb att space gray, switched to preparing for shipment some time in the night. I ordered on Sunday Oct. 6th. I was expecting to wait longer...
 
My 16gb AT&T gold iphone that I ordered at the launch from the store finally shipped!!

Just curious, What was the eta when you checked the order status before it was delivered. I also ordered from the store at launch but a 64GB gold. Just want to know if yours shipped earlier than expected.
 
I just ordered my 16GB space grey last night...I feel like that was a bad idea.... Does anyone think I will get it before Nov?
 
The only reason I figured it would be was because it was only 16gb. Im going to continue to check the stores close to me, if anything Ill cancel my order and go pick it up at the store itself. A few places had it near me yesterday but I didnt grab it in time.

As many have found out the hard way don't cancel until you have the phone in your hand up and running.
 
I even got free case and free expedited shipping.. However this is now getting out of hands..

How? How? I keep asking. This is the third time I've seen someone get a free case. I called Apple weeks ago to request the expedited shipping and they wouldn't do it. How did you get them to ship a free case, can someone please explain how they got one? Thanks.
 
Ordered my "Gold" Iphone 5S 16 GB on Oct 1

Hi Everyone!

This thread has been a good read while eagerly waiting for the iphone :) Been following the thread since I ordered my Gold iPhone 16GB on 1st Oct from Apple store. Item is still in processing.

Based on the recent golds changing from processing, it appears Apple is back-filling orders from launch date for the Golds. Looks also like the other colors are available to ship out since some people have been getting theirs pretty quickly. So I suppose its safe to assume, something would happen to my order 10-15 days from now.

I agree, its a bit strange that Apple's launching in International Markets when there is overwhelming demand in the US, not being fulfilled, on time.

Shout out to @antipasti, In the same boat mate ! Please keep me posted if your order status changes. I'll do likewise.

Best,
A :)
