Same here, just wish they would allow a change of shipping address.

Do you mean the Apple delivery tracking or is there some secret way of tracking the actual flight your phone is on... and meeting it at the airport? :eek:

There was a way when the watch shipped you could track the exact flights out of China and know your watch was on that plane. Maybe someone remembers the steps.

I got in as quick as the app would allow (a few minutes past 3:00am EDT). My confirmation came in at 3:15. iPhone 7+ 128gb Jet Black, but have the same 9/26-10/3 delivery window. Fingers crossed that they under promised and will over deliver and I will actually have it on launch day. My iPhone 6+ was ordered a few days after the presale due to Verizon being a punk and not moving my upgrade date up a few days. I was told that it would take about 6 weeks to deliver at that point. It came in within a couple of weeks. Hoping for the same this time but wont loose sleep if I have to wait until the actual window they gave me.
 
Jet Black iPhone 7+, 128GB, Verizon Wireless, IUP (new customer) purchased through Apple Store app
Ships: 1 - 2 Weeks
Delivers: 9/26 - 10/3
Confirmation Email: 3:11 AM EST
Order Status: Processing Items
Citizens One Approval Email received 9:29 AM EST

Here's hoping for at least a launch week delivery, if not launch day! Fingers crossed we all get bumped up.

Nothing quite like iPhone pre-order season. As maddening as it is, the obsessive tracking and anticipation is always quite a bit of fun.
 
For some reason the app and browser site at Apple.com would not load until about 3:07 EDT. I was refreshing the site starting 5 minutes early and couldn't get in.

Anyway, my email is 3:16 am, 7+ JB 128GB. And although during checkout it said 1-2 weeks, my order confirmation page said 3-4 and October 10-17.

I've had dates move up in the past and hopefully I won't have to wait till the middle of October. But if so, whatever.
 
My est. delivery date is October 19th.
Hoping it moves up to beginning of October, in time for my birthday. :cool:

Well, launch week is only one day since the won't deliver Saturday or Sunday. Do hope we get moved up a little.
 
256 JB 7 Plus AT&T (unlocked)
email XX:11:11 ( hundredths of a second found by forwarding email)
September 26 - October 03
 
7 Plus 128gb jet black. Confirmation email received @ :15. Initially had Oct. 4th - 10th deliver. Updated to Sep 27th - Oct 1st with Next Day Shipping after a call to Apple
 
You guys do realize Apple's doing this so consumers won't think "Oh wow, we all got everything we wanted on arrival" and that "...maybe nobody is actually buying these." The timeframes are very conservative and from my experience pre-ordering the last 4 years the week later dates such as Sept. 26th to Oct. 3rd dates would move to the 16th. It'll all even out.

My alarm went off at 3:15am (NY). I hopped on the Apple Store app, ordered a 128 GB Jet Black 7 (4.7"), signed up for the iPhone Upgrade Plan, and mine is coming 9/16.
 
ATT:
11:55pm PST
128gb 7
Oct 13-Oct 20 ship date

Apple
12:12am PST
128gb 7
Sept 16 delivery
 
Tempted about canceling my 128GB Jet Black 7+. I got my order confirmed by email from Apple at 1215 PST but my delivery window is currently 10-17 October. I'm impatient and I want to offload my 6S+ before the value tanks even more.

Ordered finally a jetblack on 6th october, delivery is showing 12th december...!

I also got my name in the Guinness book of world records for buying a gold iPhone 7 plus 128GB by walking 4 miles and returning it same day within 3 hours as I so badly wanted the jet black and just hated the golden 7+

Although apple has given dust/water protection & internal changes, i need to have ATLEAST 1 X Factor in my phone and that is THE COLOR - the JET BLACK and for the 1st time in the history of all my iphone purchases since 2007 year-after-year, i will KEEP THE JETBLACK NAKED ! No cover, no drama, although i am open to suggestions on how i can PRESERVE THE LOOK OF a jetblack with MINIMALIST yet SOLID transparent cover or some skin or whatever, please enlighten me :)
 
iPhone 7 Plus 256GB Jet Black (GSM), AT&T - Apple.com email order confirmation received on 9/9 at 3:30am EST.

The 11/11 expected ship date just changed to Preparing for Shipment. Credit card was also just debited...

UPDATE: Phone has shipped via UPS from ZhengZhou, China with a delivery ETA on 10/13

I ordered my 7+ 128 JB phone on 10/26 and I got a 4-6 week delivery date (Dec 2-16) - OUCH!
I checked Apple's site today and delivery times have improved to 3-4 weeks for new orders.
Wonder if I will get my JB sooner then Dec 02-16?
One can hope :)

Just cancel your order and get it from Best Buy (they can get it to you before Thanksgiving).

I ordered my jet black 128gb 7+ from the AT&T store a few days before you and was given the same shipping estimate. But I checked Best Buy Thursday night and there was stock all over the place. I was able to get it picked up yesterday and am currently using it.

Nothing available by me for any Best Buy within 250 miles. My best bet at this point, being 3 weeks into the order is to keep it with Apple. I should have my Apple ordered JB by end of November. I'd love to receive it earlier, but I am in no rush to comb the website to find one immediately.
 
I look at this site - istockNow - every other day. I admit I'm amazed how extremely hard it is to located a Jet Black still. In a way it's kind of good for my wallet...if I ever see one in my area - within 40-50 miles of Philly - I'll run out and drop hundreds without thinking twice.
