Two Korea departures??

Hi all,

I love this site, I've been a lurker for a long and just finally registered today.

UPS tells me I will get my phone delivered by end of day 10/17.

Anyone else have to departure scans from Korea? Any idea what that means?

Still Waiting Patiently

Has anyone been shipped a gold Verizon 32 Gb. I order Sept 20 at 10:00 am est. and my order is still processing �� I'm ready to cry. I want my phone.

I ordered a Gold 32G on 9/21/13 at 9:30 a.m. I was informed that it will be available to ship 10/24 -10/28 with a delivery date on or before November 4.
 


Mine is supposed to arrive today Oct 16. Look at the route it took! I'm in Toronto, I don't know why the h*ll it went from Mount Hope ON to Fredericton, NB and back to Mount Hope ON. And now it's stuck and says "Clearance in Progress" UPS really screwed up this delivery. :confused::(

I'm also in T.O and mine was supposed to be delivered today before 12pm. According to UPS it's still in Louisville ... they also say it's still "on time", which makes me laugh. I now hate UPS more than I did before.
 
Just wanted to let everybody know, my AT&T 64GB Gold just shipped. Says it'll be delivered tomorrow. I ordered it around 2PM PST on 9/20. Good luck everybody!

It doesn't really mean anything. Sometimes they show two departure scans bc they scan it at a different area within the same place.
 
Ordered 2 32GB ATT gold phones on 9/21 at 10am CST. Just got email saying they will be delivered tomorrow. It was saying they would ship 10/21 to 10/31 so nice surprise.
 
I had ordered my gold 32gb 5s from ATT on Sep30 and I check today if any stores had it in stock and to my luck 2 stores in the city had them ready for pickup. So I canceled my previous order which was gonna ship Nov 4 to and order the same phone for pickup. Got the confirmation that is ready to be picked up so once I get out of class will be picking it up at the 5ave store. They must have had alot of the Gold as I refreshed it after a hour and 2 stores had 32gb gold 5s available still

Please share when you know more. My phone has left Louisville now but I don't know where on earth it's going. :(

That's the same information I got. It's really frustrating me that people who ordered after me already have their phones and I'm having to wait another week, I understand they are behind but dang how are you going to release in other countries but you have satisfied your orders placed almost a month ago here? I guess I'm more upset then most because not only did I order directly from Apple, I stood in line at the store in Miami on release day on my vacation and have nothing to show for it. I would cancel at this point but I've already purchased 3 cases, 5 cords and got a complimentary docking station. I get that they could not FULLY anticipate this BUT they should have had a better idea. Whoever is on their Project Management Team and Analytics department needs to be fired! :mad: I am not a happy customer. I could have told them months ago NOBODY was going to want that iPhone 5C glad they finally cut production. Production ration should have been 80% 5s /20% 5C

ORDERED: iPhone 5s 36GB Gold - Sept 20, 10:00 am EST

Any reason why you haven't tried the in-store pickup option. I cancelled my online order and purchased a phone through that process.
 
Ordered 3 Oct 32gb gold AT&T via apple.com
Why does my order say ships b/w Oct 24-28 but deliver on Nov 1? That's with 2 business day shipping. (That Apple upgraded for me without asking which was nice). Wouldn't it get to me the 30th at the latest? I'm hoping!

i'm still a believer that the 24-28 are safe dates and that we're all getting them before november first if we ordered in september
 
Ordered my daughter a 64g gold 5s on 9/21 8:25 am from AT&T

Just got the shipping notice. Fed Ex

Looks like quite a few are shipping. Good luck everyone :)

Click on the phone you want, color, gb's and check if instore pickup is available ill ask for your zip code at least in the us and it will show you the stores around you that have them in stock and if its on stock you buy it and pick it up in like 30 minutes. I got my gold 32gb today without a problem and I'm loving it so far.
 
Yay!! Now in Canada and fairly close to where I live!!

My status has now changed to "On vehicle for Delivery Today" which is Oct 17. I think UPS messed up on the custom clearance and delayed my delivery by one day. Once it leaves Louisville, the next destination could be Mount Hope ON then to Concord ON if you are in the GTA. Hope this helps.

Thanks!! Mine is at Mt. Hope right now. Looks like mine will be two days late. :/
