Still cannot track my Xs sim-free either through references by phone number or order number >"<. My order on Apple has been showing preparing for shipment since Saturday. Really hoping to be able to track soon!

I bought sim free max and was able to find mine with my number. Still showing preparing for shipping also but on UPS shoes it’s on the way.

I've been snooping around threads from last year, and if there's a chance that the past predicts the future then there should be movement tomorrow morning to Anchorage.. of course, things could be wildly different this year :rolleyes:

Hi there folks, just want to ask about my little dilemma here (iPhone XS Max, 512GB, Space Gray, SIM-free). Last night once I got ahold of the tracking info through the usual method of MyChoice, I decided to change the delivery to go to a UPS Store in hopes I could pick it up earlier in the day (UPS comes around 6/7pm where I live). Anyways, there wasn’t a confirmation and it already submitted the request on the page, changing the estimated delivery to 9/24 instead of 9/21 for the UPS Store. That’s the only place I saw the delayed date, as the tracking still said 9/21. Out of an abundance of caution, I called UPS and I seemed to get different messages on whether or not it’ll be delivered on 9/21 or if it will be delayed because it’s going to a store. Long story short, later on I decided to put in a request yet again to deliver to a UPS CC/hub (because I couldn’t cancel the initial request to go to the store), and that said I can pick it up there on 9/21. On my UPS My Choice deliveries schedule page, however, it shows the delivery date and delivery time as “NOT AVAILABLE”, but on the tracking it reflects a pending change to go to the hub and a scheduled delivery of 9/21 as normal. I just want to make sure that my two requests didn’t conflict and cause a delay. Thanks to anyone who can provide some help!!

I don’t think anyone here can answer your question. You made a but of changes to try to get in early by having it go to UPS store for pickup. You’ll just have to wait and see where it goes.

It’ll update in the UPS system. It just needs time to catch up. Just don’t make anymore changes and it should remain at the UPS CC for you to pick up on 9/21. If you select a UPS Store, there’s usually a delay and that’s why the date would change to 9/24. Good luck.

Okay thanks. I’m sure if I would’ve left it at the UPS Store it would’ve gotten there on Friday (did that with AW Series 3), but like after seeing that date change I didn’t want to take the chance

I ordered a non-max XS for Verizon like 2 minutes past the hour. No movement for me either. IIRC some years they already have inventory in the states and it will just ship straight from Kentucky. Either way it will be here Friday so no worries.
I have never had an Apple ordered device ship from the US, they have always come from China. And for sure, I am not worried. One year I recall my device departed either very early on day before delivery from China and it was delivered with our morning shipment to the office on Friday.

I’m trying to keep up with this thread LOL it’s like a runaway freight train. I’m sure when I wake up in the morning there will be another 1000 posts haha.
Last year's thread ended at 421 pages. Still have 300 to go!
