UK iPhone 5s and 5c Thread

Not to be a kill joy, but going on the previous deliveries, my own included, they have taken at least 24 hours to leave Cologne, so if they have just got there this evening, even if there is a flight leaving later, its unlikely they will be on it.

Oh..but it's coming all the way from China.. A few days ago, people were still putting parts together on it..I must say..Tim Cook is good in operations management..but SJ is missing..I wonder..did he know about champagne/gold coming?
And guys..if you are already thinking about "6"..don't forget..5s is the last phone designed by SJ..so next year Tim's era will start..
I think I will keep 5s even if I decide to get a 6 in the future

if the 5s is the last 4inch screen iphone then it's certainly a keeper

I had same experience with many apple orders they tend to sleep in cologne for a night, they did arrive earlyish 8:00 pm though.

orders usually sleep a night in Hong Kong too, they didn't this time.

I have a departure scan 2 minutes before that plane took off, if it is our plane then the German efficiency thing has gone to a new level :)

Keep checking, it takes a while for it to update for some people. Mine can’t be the only one on the plane so it’s likely yours is on it too! :D

32GB Gold

I'm hoping they just take their time with scanning?

Lol @ Denzel :p

Everyone knows I am waiting for the 5s..so if I come to work following day with my new toy, they will all know why I was off sick)).. As a manager I have to lead by example..so boring..:):):) would rather have my phone straight away..I sold my 5 a month ago..since then I am using an old htc.. So sad.. Android + htc.. Trying to use it for emergency calls only, can't do anything else on it))

where in the country are you? maybe they split the phones some go to stansted others to East Midlands.
I did find it strange that different people got different times for import scans, it was like they were sorting them

I don't think there's a route from cologne to East Midlands? Usually Anchorage --> East Midlands?

I'm from south manchester/cheshire :)

I also don't have the departure scan at Germany. Hopefully they are scanning. Otherwise, follow the attachment so I can get it tomorrow. I live in Sheffield :)

How much did you sell it for if you don't mind me asking? What model? And where? I couldn't be without my 5, so will have to sell once this 5s comes this week hopefully!
