I'm a 7:59, still no indication...Wondering though if we will not see anything until Kentucky since we weren't scanned when we (hopefully) left South Korea!

I didn’t see anything that said they were all there at once. I suspect that line runs all day and sorts as they arrive.

So the day they set aside for Apple gets sorted everyday before the last batch get there and sent to their respective places? You must be new preordering or not know the logistics behind it.

I’m in Baltimore too mine is still in Hong Kong
 
I remember last year I had like 3 scans total last year, random ones too- not sequential that seemed weird. Then the morning of launch, I checked and everything filled in with like 10-15 scans total. Guessing that’ll happen again. In the Korea group. But again, I still will stress out about it until it’s in my hands.

I’m on the same flight, it landed in Louisville at 9:15 this morning according to FlightAware. Probably won’t see anything more until tomorrow sometime when they do the sort and scan it on it’s way to the final destination if I had to guess.

I've seen this happen as well. Ordered two 6S's... one had 3 scans up until hour before delivery then it filled in. The other was scanned at every stop. This time around I just have the origin scan, a departure scan from Shenzhen and then the arrival scan in HK.

It’s not a hard case. It’s very flexible and somewhat shock absorbing.

I recommend you check out TOZO on amazon. It’s the same case as Peel, which is similar to Ringke in slimness. Or check out Totallee cases - and look for a promo code.

Thanks for the suggestions! I know about totallee but haven’t had anyone tell me their experience with it and they aren’t available on Amazon. I’m not too concerned with price. My main priority a hard shell matte black case and amazon so I can get it before the phone.

The TOZO looks legit but it’s out of stock. Looks like I’m picking up a temporary case until they are back in stock.

Does the easyacc feel solid to you? Normally tpu cases are crap. They are floaty/loose fitting, slippery and overall garbage. To me the easyacc looks like a slim case but tpu and I’m hoping it’s a bit tougher than normal tpu cause then I’ll get that as a temp case until the TOZO ships

I’m leaving on the 22nd. If not here by Friday I’ll just have it delivered to a friend and get it when I come back 10 days later. :(

Same situation here but I don't live in the US so I probably won't be back in months. So if I don't receive it that day I need my order canceled.

No one else with 21st as scheduled delivery is still on preparing to ship??

I ordered two 256 XS Max delivery date is still 21st, but status is preparing for shipment. I am.leaving the US on the 23 rd so I am a bit worried. Anyone else in a similar situation?

Have you checked UPS tracking, looking up by "Reference Number?" (For me I used my billing phone number)
Even though the Apple site on my end STILL says "Preparing to Ship," UPS shows my phone has been moving since Sunday in China. Departed from Alaska, I THINK as soon as it hits (EDIT - Louisville,KY) maybe later tonight, early tomorrow - the order then officially shows "Shipped"

If its says delivery will be the 21st, it SHOULD be the 21st. :)

Yeah right. I don’t know anything about airplanes. And the last 5 iPhones I’ve had all preordered and delivered on opening day don’t count.

But whatever, I’m sure you have more experience than me.

You can't cancel once it's already in the shipping process you have to receive it and then do a return.
