Good morning friends! My Speck case should be arriving today. 
Now, if only my iPhone would leave China! Hopeful to see movement later today.

oh yeah....we got tracking on sat
People have already been given tracking numbers that originated from China. I don't think anyone here is expecting an iPhone coming from US Warehouse. Unless you missed the pre-ordered launch date then yeah. Otherwise, No.
Still sitting in China. Hoping to have some updates by tonight.
I flew on the A380 once (JFK-CDG). It’s an impressive aircraft, but doesn’t hold a candle to the 747.There's still a reason why they're called the queen of the skies and Airbus's counterpart isn't...it is an earned name.
Our personal private investigator knows everything about this preordering process. 😘🤣

tell us your new here - with out telling us you’re new here… no one is attacking anyone - we’ve been doing this for years - and know what we’re talking about… feel free to find the door and use it…
I'll go on another limb and say carrier/apple store phones also originate from China(obviously) and get stateside via private means....commercial shipping starting in the states like you are seeing.
At the end of the day its Friday the 16th that any phone will get here.

When you're saying "it's showing" are you trying to request it to be held online on the UPS website? How would they charge you, are they asking for a credit card number on there? You're best bet is to get a hold of the facility where you want to pick it up and ask them if they can hold it for you. If I get a chance at lunch, I'll call my local Hub and ask them if they charge for pick up and if they say no, I'll ask them if any location should be charging to hold a package for pickup.
Are you all seeing complete tracking numbers? I’ve got the partial one this time (I think I did 2 years ago as well) and so can’t do a thing with it or see progress. Grrrrr.
Sorry for the cross post to another blog, but seems like some phones are starting to shop.

First iPhone 14 pre-orders now shipping ahead of Friday's release — 9to5Mac
The iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max are set to launch to the public on Friday. Ahead of that, the first pre-orders have started shipping to early shoppers. As always, this doesn’t mean you should expect your iPhone 14 pre-order to arrive any earlier than the September 16 release...
All phones are built in China, and originate from China - yes.
You have people in the past who have received their iPhones ordered from Apple that had it delivered from a local warehouse via ground service on launch day NOT using UPS.
But then you also have people who ordered from carriers who are saying the USPS & FEDEX who can't/shouldn't be the carrier who are mixing it up here.
So check your facts....
And stop telling people what thread to post!
That is interesting. Your appears to be a bit different than most of us with the erroneous "Postal Service" issue, which were promised 9/16 and then in the email had 9/23 listed, along with Postal Service. It appears something slightly different happened to you, being given a date range (9/23-10/3) rather that a single date. I'm not surprised at all that there isn't any change in the App Store status. In any case, I assume if you were in line to get it on 9/16 , you'd have tracking via UPS by now. Can you confirm nothing via UPS / MyChoice?
This is a great article with lots of great info. Thank you for sharing. But yeah, iPhones have been shipped already.Sorry for the cross post to another blog, but seems like some phones are starting to shop.

Good thing it’s not Friday the 13th!
I'm jealous. I've seen the A380 in person at SFO and Heathrow but have never flown on one.
So.... 2 of our 4 phones last year ordered thru apple.com came from with the US. So the word "every" is incorrect. Unless you're talking about where they were manufactured, and in that case they came from China, but they were already in the US and shipped from US warehouses on Thursday night to arrive Friday morning.
Some of my best days were on Fri the 13th.
Like all of you I've done the pre-order for years. I ordered literally within minutes, had 09/16 throughout the entire process and then the email. Nothing in UPS, track by reference etc. I think I am just "that guy" this year. Knowing Apple's history of under promising and overdelivering I am hopeful I will see the phone next week.
I remember in the past sitting in ZZ for several days as more iPhones accumulate for the trip to the states. This could be what's happening now.
I wish the view from my office was like that!
