I found an iPhone 6+ space gray 128GB at my local Apple store and cancelled my order. I'm signing off . . . well, until the Apple watch goes on preorder.
Cool!
Got a tip for us?

Cool!
Hows is everyones day so far. I've posted a couple of times on this threat. I ordered the 64GB space gray iPhone 6 Plus. I decided today to call Verizon and see what is going on with my order, four weeks in.(Ordered on 9/16). The Verizon Representative informed me that my iPhone 6 Plus will be shipped on November 27!!!!. I decided, I was fed up of waiting and told her to cancel my order and decided to play "Who has an iPhone 6 Plus". Today was my lucky day. The first Apple store I visited had only one iPhone 6 Plus available on Verizon and was in 128GB. Long story short. I'm enjoying my iPhone 6 Plus!!. hopefully other can be lucky like me.
How long did it take for your acct to show you're eligible for an upgrade after you cancelled?
Thank you. I was surprised they even had it stock with it flying off the shelves within an hour. Verizon was supposedly having server issues. It took three hours to complete the whole transaction. An hour to clear from my account, but unfortunately didn't let me use Edge. So it was either pay full 1K price or 2 yr contract. 2 year contract for me.
What the what? Did they tell you why they missed the mark by 1 month? Did your estimated ship date show 11/27 online?
Got me a little concerned as I orderd on 9/19 with an estimated ship of 11/7.
If you ordered online you probably have a 10 digit internet order number. If you want the longer 16 digit code, you have to call and ask for it, or contact Verizon via chat (i had no luck via chat, but others have). I had no problem getting it via phone, the rep actually gave it to me without me asking for it.
That makes no sense, the 64 G SG 6Plus on verizons website says it ships by 11/14 right now.. I think you got some bad advice by that CSR but congrats on your phone anyway...

Hang in there- Just this minute got a tracking number for one just like it. I ordered 9/15 about noon.
Iphone 6 plus 128gb gold ordered 9/15 with a stated ship date of 10/24. Just got the tracking
almost!
Ordered 2 iphone6+'s on sept 19th, one 16g gold(oct24th shipping date) and 64g SG(oct31st shipping date). No activity for a long time. Checked both orders this afternoon, BOOM, 16g gold+ on fedex truck for deliver but I was out doing errands and totally missed it! Now saying redelivery attempt Monday.
I'm not too disappointed as its coming earlier than scheduled anddd it just so happens the 16g+ was for my girlfriend.(can't say the same for her tho)

I would only say do it if you really need the added storage. If you take tons of photos or download lots of music and videos and do not like ever moving things off your device go for it.
Do not do it just to get it slightly faster though. It sets a bad precedent. What If lots of people who are tired of waiting for the 64 were to buy 128s this time just to get a phone quicker, then it would encourage Apple even more so the next time to produce more of the larger storage devices and less of the smaller storage devices knowing people will pay them to get the larger ones they do not really need just to have them faster next time (ie it lets Apple know they can get over on its fans).
I have a very bad feeling that apple/verizon wont be able to come CLOSE to getting these orders out by 10/31. I just don't see that happening when they are STILL processing the first week of pre-orders over a month later..
Just spoke with a VZ rep on the phone and confirmed that my order 64+ SG still shows a ship date of 11/7. Which it does.
I also confirmed that my Early Edge Up plan is the 12 months/60% plan based on when I orderd (9/19) and not when I activate the phone. Which it also is. Was concerned that I might get stuck with the new and less improved 18 months/75% Edge plan.
Interestingly the rep wasn't even aware that VZ had changed their Edge plan until I told her. Rep was grateful that I informed them of the change and agreed that VZ needs to do a much better job communicating this kind of stuff to the people that actually deal with their customers.
