Are you going to order the new iPhone 14?

I’m just sad that you and others haven’t gotten your tracking yet. 😔
Me too. At least you got your tracking assigned. It's so funny all the old timers here (the ones who's been doing this for years and we upgrade every year) never gets lucky with a 1st batch of shipment. It's always the 2nd and at sometimes the 3rd wave. It's dumb, LOL.

I was hoping by ordering 2 iPhones. I'd get lucky this time. Nope. It did not matter.

You gotta select UPS CC. it was wonderful when I got the 12Pro. There was no line/ no one and I got it as soon as they opened up for public.

Best way would be to to an online order for store pick up. They always have stock on launch day. This way you get confirmation of availability.
Yes, plan to strike early on launch day, before noon, to have a chance to get what you want. Might get lucky. That first day they may prevent online orders from taking inventory to please any walk in customers, but you gotta get there early and deal with line people.

Exactly, it really doesn’t make sense. You should be in the first wave!

Serendipity. It's luck of the photons during the milliseconds of launch minute.
 
@Shh Are you still banging your head?

Any luck in your part?
UPS is going to call me tomorrow about my old account being deleted and they're going to help me make sure my UPS My Choice service is working on the new account I made. From there, I'll be able to have more options when I finally receive my tracking number for the iPhone.

You should ask them if you they waive the $19.99 fee and get you upgraded with a premium account or something lol.
 
Why didn't they have any specialty items this year, like polishing cloths?
I think they will be released on Mac Event in October. Apple usually releases them by then. I was hoping Apple would upgrade the MagSafe battery pack thingy for the iPhone but they didn't
