The UPS tracker is saying my iPhone is still stuck in Feltham depot with 'Destination scan' although the Apple Store site is saying my iPhone is out for delivery.

I am getting worry now... My iPhone could be delivered tomorrow? :mad:
 
My order is still 'preparing for dispatch'! :( can I please have some advice on how long there order stayed on 'preparing for dispatch' before it went to 'dispatched'?

I am getting very impatient as my friend ordered the same day and his is out for delivery today with UK Mail!

Mine was from last Saturday to Wednesday.
 
Just back from Apple Store Regent Street (had reservation) and it is outrageous the number of scalpers in the queue. Sorry but nearly every single one was Asian (undeniable). All paying in cash. Apple should ban cash and gift card (how they get around the no cash in some stores) sales for the first weekend at least so genuine people can get them.

Ridiculous!!!

Yep, I'm in that queue now and still so many scalpers...
 
I just checked and my 6+ was delivered & signed for by my neighbour 20 minutes ago.

I'm on holiday in Jamaica currently, back on Tuesday and like most people, I'm normally depressed as hell coming back after a holiday.

Not this time! :D
 
Agreed; I walked past and was taken back by oblivious number of scalpers.

what was the stock level like when you were there?

They still have stock but 6+ ran out very very early and looking like Gold has run out too of the 6.

Queue is still massive. Never seen it this big.
 
I'm sure there will be legitimate Asian iPhone fans wanting to pay in cash! You can't generalise like that...

Doubt it very much. They are working in groups and pushing in. They have even reserved stock using the reservation system that was open last week.
 
Restoring from backup now. :)

Okay thank you. I'm hoping mine gets dispatched today for delivery early next week.

Where did your iPhone start it's journey, China, US or in the UK?

I don't know as I pre-ordered lats Friday 16GB version for myself and UKMail tracking is not telling me too much about the previous history.
 
is the Queue still crazy long? were you given any idea of the stock left?

Normal queue is still horrendous, even pre order queue is bad, just got in store after almost hour waiting and there is a big snaking queue in store as well.

No info on stock levels for general purchase
 
got a feeling we won't see any more movement now until tomorrow maybe

Few hours until the next plane ride, and then a 7 hour journey to Almaty, if that's where it does end up going. Might see it leaving Korea in a few hours but it'll be morning until we see where it lands.
 
Guys, Check your screens just notice on mine two large Dust great
Everything works fine no dead pixels
getting a replacement says 2-3 Weeks.
 
What is your definition of a scalper?

Someone that sells them for profit straight away?

I guess my definition would be someone that is solely there to turn a profit; I am in two minds if it is necessarily wrong or just the market response to demand.

I spoke to one guy (who was in front of my friend) that brought his whole family (mum; grandmother; cousins) to all get as many as possible as he was off to India next week to sell them on. They had an empty suitcase with them, apparently according to my friend they managed to fill the suitcase up.

My friend also told me he saw so-called ‘ring masters’ standing outside of the queue with large bags collecting the devices off others and telling them to rejoin the queue.

Again is this wrong or just demand?
 
Good News: Delivered
Bad News: Still at work
Good News: On my own today so as soon as the wages are paid I'm going to FOH.
Bad News: Still undecided on 6 vs 6+

I live bang in the middle of England with no major roads, towns or cities within an hours drive but mine still arrived before lunch time. Go figure....
 
Not too fussed on actual movements....just wish they would pick a delivery date and stick to it :D

UPS saying they don't decide on the delivery day, Apple tell them what day to put what orders on the van's. If Apple's site is saying 23rd, he is pretty sure that's the day it will be.
