I really hope my 10/7 delivery date is false and it get mine on launch day. these errors were ridiculous.
20 min hold for me and I got a rep.
They are having some issue. I upgraded and added a 2nd line to my VZW acct. It told me the delivery date of 9/12 and gave me a long confirmation number but no final checkout. After talking to CS, they are dealing with an issue linking to Apple somehow.
They said with my confirmation number I'm good but I just nest to agree to the terms.
I'll call back a little later if I don't get an email or something in the next few hours.
I did. 64GB. I ordered it around 1:58am Central time, so the same time as you. Not sure how I went through without an issue, probably just luck. 9/19 release date as well.

It seems that if you are upgrading to Edge, you need to do multiple phone separately.
After finally getting into the checkout process with 2 phones, they were showing up full price and the Edge option never appeared. I did this a couple times before doing it separately and then it worked correctly.

I did and after I got past the errors it was smooth. 64gb 6 in slate grey. I have my confirmation email too.
I ordered the same phone @3:10am EDT and my delivery date was pushed back to 10/7.
Edit: I ordered a 6+
after much groveling and anger i managed to get the order through for my wife and i - since we couldn't do the $60 single line on the preorder, i set up two completely separate accounts (one in her name, one in mine) with the crappiest share everything data package on each.
the verizon rep said that i could change those share everything plans over to the single line $60 plan, but he said I can't do that until after I receive the phone but before i activate it. can anyone confirm this or does anyone know if i can do it before i receive the phone, like tomorrow? would be nice to do it ahead of time so that it's already in the system a few days before i activate the phone rather than doing it minutes before activating my phone next friday - that way i know my first bill will be right.
somehow our orders are showing 9/19 delivery in our confirmation emails.

I somehow got lucky and got my order in a few minutes after 3:01am EST. After getting some sleep, I woke up to see the email which was sent at 4:28am and the delivery date of 9.19. Checked the order status and it shows 10.7 shipping. 
Just hoping it's a snafu and 9.19 is correct. I did the crazy thing of finally letting go of unlimited data as well as I just couldn't justify the full price w/ how little I use data now. Hoping I can get it activated and switched to the $60 single line plan to save money as well.
Crossing fingers.

I ordered at 3 AM exactly (as in that's when it was official) and mine still says Order In Process
I am nervous now since others have been confirmed already

Should I keep my 4g SIM card ? I have unlimited data and I would like to. I'm going to pay full price for my phone.
Keep it.
Thank you
Keep it.
Thank you
Well, seems like you answered your own question lol. Yeah, keeping it would be wise.
iPhone6 grey 128gig
I set my alarm for 2a CST. I first tried my iPad, but after seeing the responses, moved upstairs to my computer, which had Win8.1 on bootcamp. I then spent ~50 minutes refreshing, and starting over on the Verizon site. I was also reading the thread here, and trying Apple.com. Kept getting that error message.
I read about issues with Chrome's cacheing, and fired up my rarely used Internet Explorer, an voila, was able to go through the process unmolested to completion.
About an hour of effort, with poor sleep afterwards. Have my confirmation, with 9/19 delivery date.

I decided not to preorder because of that (no single line plan). That said, make sure you call them as soon as you get the package (before even turning on the phone(s)). If they give you a hard time you can return the phones within the 14 day window. I think though for online order 14 days start from the day it ships, not the day you receive it so be careful
can't have paid a bill late at all in last 6 months. 16 year customer here and they won't let me either.
Really annoyed with them...
I ordered at 3:05 well before they pushed back any delivery dates so I was told 9/19 on both the checkout and my email confirmation, but their order tracker is saying 10/7. If this doesn't prove to be just a system error then I'll be canceling.

I completed my order of a 128gb space grey iPhone + at 3:01. My email says delivery by 9/19 but when I check order status it says delivers by 10/14. I hope it's a screw up.
For those who ordered at 12 am PDT, if your delivery date isn't launch day then that would be enough for me to cancel too. The problem for me is Apple wants to change my text and data plan which includes paying $20 for 5000 texts opposed to unlimited talk/text and 4 GB data for $80.
This is what they show as of 7:35 AM eastern time on their site for the 6+:
