If you get bored with tracking etc, delve into the UPS site and arrange a parcel for collection with from and to addresses etc and then payment. After about 3 pages you then get to print shipping labels which I'll then need to email to UK to get them printed and stuck onto my phone, then hopefully UPS will pop back, collect it and ship it! Nightmare load of stuff to do but worth it!
 
Monday 15th order

Hey guys, ordered Monday 15 after stressful weekend following ordering from phones4u and being messed about by my bank.

It's currently preparing for dispatch and has been since Thursday. Anyone else have the same status or better? My estimated shipping was 7-10 days so I was surprised for the preparing for dispatch phase to appear so soon
 
Done haha. I've never been so impatient for anything before in my whole entire life :) I could even now drive to Germany by the morning and pick it up!

----------



Haha mine is still saying 'Scheduled Delivery: 'Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later.'.

But when I go on the Live Chat is says Monday 22nd and I also rang UPS CS yesterday and they promised it would be the 22nd. :)


You will get it tomorrow. But I still think you should stay up all night tracking

I'm going to don't you worry :)

My girlfriend asked me to go food shopping earlier when my flight had just left Dubai, I refused to stop watching it. I got called sad and got the house to myself for a few hours :D
 
Hi guys

Added a python script to the stock checker site that you can run locally to deliver you push notifications when specific stores have stock of models.

I would build in a notification system run on the site's server to save you having to run it locally but don't have the time at the moment - if anyone fancies making one, let me know and I can add it to the site.

Hopefully it helps people :) Good luck to all trying with tonight's batch!
 
So no one found any ups planes leaving Germany for the UK yet?

The only hint will be in the "on ground" area when you click into the airport, if you see a UPS plane there it's on the move... once you see the plane itself on the map you'll see where it's going. No way to find out before that...
 
With all due respect, is there really a need to keep spamming the URL to your website?

I know you want to make money by getting people to sign up for text alerts, but it's a bit tiresome now IMO.

Sorry if it appears spammy, just trying to help people out.

No money is being made whatsoever, in fact I've spent money (that I won't get back) setting it up.
 
Cargo planes are really hard to find on arrivals and departure boards. I think they just leave when there is a space or when they are ready. This morning I checked Shanghai to Dubai and there was none on FlightStats!


Yup. There was no sign of usp9 leaving incheon until it was spotted in here.

I think I'll sleep better knowing the dates set for tomorrow
 
Hello fellow potential iPhone 6(+) owners. This is my first post. I just wanted to say that I've been following this forum almost constantly since last Friday and you've all kept me going. I was also one of the Korea lot who seemed to be going nowhere forever, even though Apple told us we would have our phones on Saturday. Well, I might not have spent the weekend how I'd imagined but I've really enjoyed reading all your posts.

Strength in numbers.... it looks like the battle is won!

Seconded :)

I'm fine with it, I saw no way that you were making money so appreciate the help, in the end didn't see any 64GB 6+ SG in time to do anything about it. :)

I think we are waiting for UPS1 to arrive at Koeln, then we'll all be off to the UK on Northern and a Southern area flights! :)

Pmsl. Tomorrow it will be out that down and talk to me - not the phone lol

She will be getting the same answer then too ha :) I've never been so excited to receive a new iPhone.
 
Well seems like we should get our phones tomorrow according to UPS. While that's excellent I've actually had quite a good weekend monitoring this forum while jumping between various flight tracking sites, UPS and Apple.

I nearly queued outside my local Apple store to get a 6+ 128 but just decided to stick with my pre-order instead. Who would have thought it would have provided such a ride.

Roll on tomorrow....
 
Perhaps a third flight for the NI folks? Or it drops the stuff off in England and then flies onwards.

Yeah maybe another flight over there :) I'm trying to find out what time a UPS flight is departing from Germany.

----------

Send it via Ryanair I don't care, as long as Mr UPS man knocks on my door tomorrow I'll be happy

EXACTLY :) I'd rather it go via EasyJet to be honest, they fly to Southend Airport and I live opposite it!
 
Hi all,

good to see people are enjoying there phones :) I couldn't get onto the website to order so I was one of the late ones 9:01 so set delivery of the 10th-17th of October but am I right in thinking peoples orders seem to be shipping earlier than originally stated?

not gonna get my hopes up but it would be awesome if they were as the 10th seems soooooo long away :D

Sorry, that was rude of me. :eek:

I get that you're trying to help people find stock and that's a really good thing, but presumably you make money when people subscribe to the instant SMS alerts (why spend the time and money setting it up otherwise?), which I've seen you mention a few times.

Maybe I'm just over suspicious, but there has to be a reason you set the site up, other that goodwill?

There is hope, we might get it first week of october meaning as far as I am aware we should have movement on tuesday ish. I ordered mine 09.31 on same day and in same time bracket as you.

Is there a stock checker for the 6 plus please?
