End of sept delivery started to get CC charged and preparing for shipment.
I've been following this thread, and the people with the first delivery window (somewhere between September 23-October 3) are getting charges on their credit cards and their orders have been moving to "Preparing for Shipment". We'll probably start seeing movement as early as this weekend, but most likely next week.
*sigh* I guess I'll continue to stare longingly at my new Spigen case.
The ones on the block before us are getting preparing for shipment, so hang in there, we should be the next ones!!!!
LOL!! Same here. I received the Spigen tough armor, for the 7+ on Monday. And there I was all worried that my iPhone would get here before my case!
Are you referring to the people with October 4-10 dates? If so, probably for models that aren't Jet Black. According to another thread, it looks like all Jet Black Pluses are just going out to the people with September 23-October 3 dates.
So quiet in this thread tonight. Was hopeful that there would be some movement for the early October peeps.

Someone reported in the Oct4-Oct10 thread that they had their credit card charged and their order was moved to Preparing for shipment. there is hope for us yet
This is a good sign that maybe, just maybe, we will all get moved up in line....Fingers crossed..
At this point, being moved up is all I'm hoping for. I ordered a Jet Black 7 Plus in 256GB. Almost everyone in the first shipping group are getting their phones on Monday. Meanwhile, I'm still stuck with October 18-30..
I ordered a 32GB Plus Matte Black Unlocked (T-Mobile) then quickly ordered a 128gb model later after realizing i wanted more storage. Im going to be posting it for sale when i get it next week.I cancelled my preorder because I thought I'd hit AT&T this morning.
Nope.
Went back and placed the order again. Looking at the 11-17th.
Yay me

I have been following the JB threads for longer than I care to admit. I guess it's time to throw my hat in the ring considering that I have found a thread where I can better relate. I didn't go to sleep the night before preorders. I was more than ready with my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Air. Starting trying to get in right at 3:00 AM EST. Tried multiple times via the website and Apple Store app. I was finally able to get in with my iPad, but ran into trouble when Apple was attempting to contact AT&T. I ended up getting the dreaded "reservation" message. I opted to give it a whirl on my iPhone and was able to push my order through. I ended up receiving a confirmation email at 3:19 AM. I purchased a JB 7+ 128 GB (AT&T) outright. Sadly, by the time I finished my order the shipping dates were pushed to 10/18 - 10/31. I hope that the dates get bumped soon and those of us in this group somehow magically get our phones by month's end. That might be wishful thinking, but I am trying to remain optimistic!
I'm right there with you! At this point I've been reading the forums just to see other waves moving to make myself feel better. So here's to other people getting their phones faster and than us!
Agreed! It is a good feeling to see the earlier date ranges seeing movement and getting tracking information. Still... It would be nice to get out of "Processing Items" hell.
