That's ok. No problem. I wouldn't do that especially on a pre sale Wouldn't be fair to others. Its just friends asked if I could order their phone. Last year I got through quickly using the apple store app and this year I did same thing. Website just wouldn't come go live on iPad or mb pro so I did all orders on app in 14 minutes. My own fastest record. I was in shock.
 
delivery date 9/20.










































oh man i bet some of you guys started crying, why does he get it first and not me, blah blah blah. grow up, shipment date 9/21
 
Preparing for shipment since saturday.. Tracking does not work for me (Germany). I guess it won't be shipped by UPS.

Interesting you write that. I live in Los Angeles and the billing address with AT&T in San Francisco so the iPhone was headed there. I ordered at 12.31 AM PST through apple.com and called Apple the next day (Friday) to try to change the shipping address. The Apple rep said the will change the shipping address (to my work) this one time only (maybe, maybe not).

I've never had an issue with them changing the shipping address as I have sent 4 or 5 orders to my work. The 4S along with MBPs and other items. The only issue was by the time I could get thru to them on Sat. They said I would have to call back after it ships.
 
Mine is Preparing for Shipment. But also says delivers 9/21-9/25
anybody else have a range of dates?:confused:

My order went through at 12:00am on the 14th.
iPhone 5 64GB Black

Maybe people in Ontario, Canada get a range of delivery dates.:confused:

Ordered the same model at the same time as you shipping to Toronto. I too have that date range. I'd wouldn't worry too much though, we're in Zone 1 so we should get it on the 21st.
 
been preparing for shipment for a few days and i used the reference number trick on ups and it says it's in Illionois now. 16GB white on AT&T.
 
use your phone number or if on a family account the primary account phone # as the reference #
 
Delivered !!

I'm heading to my office now to check.
I ordered some cables and accessories as well so I hope its not those, but the package weight is 2LBS.

I'll keep you guys updated!

tracking by reference just worked for me for the first time. iPhone5 64GB Black, leaving from Nashville! Scheduled delivery Sept. 21 by 3pm.
 
Why would my shipment say "Preparing" when according to UPS it's already been shipped? It's already made the journey from China to Korea to Alaska to Kentucky!
 
I had to use the phone number on my apple account to track it. It still says preparing. But on ups it says it's in Tennessee. :D I should get it Friday by 3pm :)
