After losing out on the one you were initially trying to buy, I’m glad that you were still able to obtain another colour, etc.
4th day of my phone sitting in ZhengZhou with NO movement. I’m really getting pissed. This is unacceptable.
Yeah, I might get a cover for the first time. So that also made me Ok w8th the color change. I do like the silver’s edges.
Hi guys, who has the same one as me? When are we going? When will the traffic begin?

I'm like that too. Been sitting in Korea since Wednesday, now Saturday. Still supposed to deliver on Monday, better get moving soon.
I don’t understand why yours have moved and mine haven’t. I have the same exact scans/times as you on the same days. But no movement toward Incheon.

We have 2 UPS flights from Korea to Anchorage today. UPS67 and UPS99. UPS67 leaves shortly.
Lets hope we get on one of these. There must be a big backlog there. Things seem to be slow getting out of China too.
What's up with T-mobile space grey stock? According to istocknow there currently isn't a single Apple store in the US that has one. I'm seeing a lot of Verizon & ATTs rolling in this morning...

Same here. The Apple stores are deserts. No iPhones for miles. No Apple Store near me and 5 states over has att iPhones X's. what the hell?!?!?!
We had several in Philadelphia area between 6:30 AM and 7:30 AM this morning… All gone by 8 AM. You got to make sure you're sitting by your phone at 6 AM every morning to get even a hopeful shot. The scalpers grab them up very quickly.
You can get the phone you want right now on craigslist or eBay just for about $100 over retail. Of course no payment plans through carriers - going that route.
thanks for the tip. i've been checking my phone every 10 minutes like a crazy person trying to find one in stock somewhere.... FML.....
You'll never find one available after 8 AM Central standard time. They'll all be gone. You have to get up early every single morning. Set up a notification to your email at Istocknow.com. Really will give you the edge.
There any way of finding out when those take off?
Edit: Nevermind, I see UPS67 took off 10 mins ago. No update on my phone yet if it was on there. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS67
Yup, after two days with istocknow notifications I learned that, at least Nyc metro, you get some stock around 11pm and most stocks at 6 am est. that’s how I woke at 550 today and got mine. No SGs Bur plenty of silvers.
So I preordered on the 27. Phone finally shipped yesterday. But it seems to be stuck in Shanghai. Ups still says it will be here Thursday the 16th.
We will see.
We will see.
Stuck in Korea for two days.
Pricing plane tickets right now....

I'm not going to pull that trigger unless Apple starts missing dates.
While I'm kind of annoyed that other people are getting moved up and I'm not, I always figured that I was near the back of the 17-24 group.
Big fail today. I used istock now and didn't get any alerts or anything. I went to a nearby Apple Store and they said all preorders are already sold out for today! Neither istocknow NOR the Apple Store online showed inventory! So how the hell did it sell out?!?!?!?!??!
First I was frustrated bc my pre order night order showed order in progress for almost 2 weeks without movement. So I cancelled. Now I'm frustrated bc the sites don't accurately show inventory! This sucks.

You should EXPECT they're wrong. I always am. Sites like that are highly fluid, and a true accurate inventory is hard to come by in situations like this.
Spot on. I'm probably going to give up now bc obsessing over it for the last few days got me exhausted, lost sleep etc. I'll pick one up when the apple stores have thousands in stock, like a couple weeks from now.
Adios!
There is always the possibility ups missed a scan. But they are on pallets so I doubt it.
