There is an update on my tracking status, looks like Oct 1 is probably realistic:

Ordered at around 2am on the first day. Heading to Vancouver, BC

Guess what... THIS BITCH IS TELLING ME IT MIGHT BE LOST... WHAT A JOKE!! SHE SAID IF IT IS ILL GET ONE PRIORITY AND WONT HAVE TO WAIT WEEKS BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ****

OHH AND SHE HAD ME ON HOLD AND I LET MY PHONE DIE SO I HAVE TO CALL BACK, DAMNIT!@@)@#tjigweng SKJLDGNSKUJDFGSKLJD **** APPLE
 
Finally moved on.

Mine hung out in Incheon, Korea for several days (like most of you), and finally departed today. Still marked as for delivery today even though UPS has told me that won't happen...and it obviously wouldn't make it anyway.

Here's the tracking for reference:

Ohh and by i am already listening to hold music, the first guy that directed my call sounded scared... Ya im not happy lets just put it like that

This shall be interesting.

Ordered at around 2am on the first day. Heading to Vancouver, BC

Mine updated too! Which seems like bad joo-joo. lol

I'm checking for any flights leaving Incheon to Anchorage and cannot find any. The last flight from ICN to Anchorage from UPS landed more than 18 hours ago.
 
ohh and she had me on hold and i let my phone die so i have to call back, damnit!@@)@#tjigweng skjldgnskujdfgskljd **** apple

so i call back and instead of put me on hold this bitch actually takes my number and says she is going to call ups and then call me back, is she really going to call me back wtf?!?

And this is straight ******** they better hold one for me in the store or something im not waiting for more shipping that doesn't even make sense, they should have let me know that it had been in china for a week when peoples who shipped the day after already have theirs, apple has definitely failed this time

and if its lost i shouldnt be the one contacting them they shuolda sent me a new one and contacted me
 
My tracking just shifted to 'import scan' in Louisville, after arriving there last night at 1:12AM. I hope that means it gets out today, to deliver tomorrow, but given my 'expedited' method am not optimistic. Very annoying.

Just because it got scanned doesn't mean the flight has left yet. Looking at other people's tracking history, it looks like it'll hit Anchorage at about 2pm local time and make it to Louisville at about 2am tomorrow morning. It will not clear customs until noon tomorrow at the earliest.

(I'm not sure if the Canadian shipments will need to clear customs in Kentucky....., but i would imagine Canada's customs would be just as slow.)

someboyy else posted it and was right, apple called UPS and called me back, when they called UPS just hasnt been updating our ****, because she actually TOLD ups to update it for me (she said she had to use a firm voice, lmfao) and now it just magically (right after she called me back) updated with this

I just called them and after being on hold for like 15 mins and getting transferred like 4 times the agent told me my package cleared though customs at 11:11 today and it will get delivered october 1st. I asked if its still in China she said she doesnt know but she said its not lost and its in the system and it will get delivered on the 1st. I think I'm just gonna stop tracking now and wait till the first, this is too stressful...

Well mine hasnt updated but UPS assured me it passed customs. Good enough I guess.
 
This is such a first world problem, its worth using the cliche' lol

Yes, it's a first world problem.

But it's extremely frustrating when you put money down on a new phone, and "pre-order" it being told a delivery of the 21st will happen. Than you're now being told to wait for a product to arrive in October.

Meanwhile you could've simply waited and gone to an apple store and pick one up there, since many apple stores have them in stock still.

Just because it got scanned doesn't mean the flight has left yet. Looking at other people's tracking history, it looks like it'll hit Anchorage at about 2pm local time and make it to Louisville at about 2am tomorrow morning. It will not clear customs until noon tomorrow at the earliest.

I've checked for any out-going flights from ICN to ANC and can't find when that UPS flight will be leaving. Probably tomorrow, theirs non scheduled for today and UPS61 has yet to arrive in ICN anyways (it's still in Louisville). So I guess for the people's whose phones are / were stuck in ICN for the longest will be waiting until the 1st.

Exactly, I ordered mine one hour and 20 minutes into the pre-orders and im still waiting, when people who ordered days later got theirs, and on top of that I COULD HAVE WALKED RIGHT IN ON THE 21ST TO ANY OF THE AT&T STORES BY MY HOUSE, THEY ALL HAD ENOUGH FOR EVERY PERSON IN LINE, SO I WOUILDNT HAVE HAD TO EVEN WAIT IN LINE, JUST BE THERE AT 9AM!!! SUCH A JOKE! IF MY CARE PACKAGE PRE-ORDER (I KNOW $200 FOR BLACK OPS 2, LMFAO!) DOES THIS CRAP IM GONNA CHOP OFF SOMEBODYS BALLS!
 
So mine has been updated to say "import scan" as of just after 11am. Also the top of my UPS tracking page now says "by end of day tomorrow the 28th".

For the record I ordered at 4:30am EST, 32GB black ATT and I am in Philly.

Is this for real? How old are you? You realize no amount of chats with CS and apple or ups are going to speed up the shipping, right? Just be patient...

Yep, it is what it is. But clarification would have been nice. I won't lie, my phone being stuck in Incheon for 3 days with no explanation was a bit nerve-racking.

With the more information that comes out, live-tracking flights, the shipping/delivery companies have fallen behind when it comes to tracking in their own warehouses. Crazy.
 
So any idea what flight our phones are on? For the map tracking or whatever sites weve been stalking? Mine is 32gig white. Ordered morning of launch. A bit annoyed that my husbands was ordered later that day and has been here for days (express 16g Black). Mine has either been stuck in 'snooze Lose' china, or Korea. Each for DAYS. Now states headed to Lousivile from Korea. Tho my delivery still states EOD today, and ON TIME??

So iPhone (white 32gig) still in AK. Still at 7:52 eastern time states my package is on time and due for delivery TODAY. We are all aware A: won't be here (In Raleigh NC from AK) today. And B: UPS DOESN'T SHIP AFTER 8!! Matter of fact. I think 6 is cut off for day. So when I call UPS to hear (directly from them what my status is and expectations should be) the CSR STATES it WILL BE HERE TODAY.
ME: when is the last scan you're showing? (to make my point kindergarten style)
CSR: AK early afternoon.
She then told me that if my status doesn't update anymore tonight I need to call APPLE bc SHIPPING STATUSES aren't THEIR problem?! SMH

BTW: since hanging up, no update. I'm 'whatever' at this point. But now I notice yet another package (iPhone) on my profile headed for NJ. Poor person prob has no idea the status or ETA. I saw its due to be delivered 2mrw-yay to them.

Travel history is as follows


Your package is in the UPS system and is On Time with a scheduled delivery date of Thursday, September 27, 2012.

Good to hear good luck! Hopefully we don't get the ones with dents and scuffs :(

I'm scheduled to pick it up at 9AM, about 10 hours from now
 
Mine powered through the Import Scan in a record time of 3 hours (most I've seen took upwards of 12 hours) and is out for delivery today. I'd like to think someone found our pallet still hanging out in Korea and they internally boosted its priority.

Out for delivery today. Relief to just have this whole ordeal done. Definitely not preordering from Apple again. I'll be hitting their store.
