So after expecting that my SG 64g would be delivered near the end of next week, and doing the China-Korea dance for a few days, with a delivery day bouncing from the 17th to the 14th and then to the 16th, I got got a text from UPS saying it was out for delivery today. This has been one hell of an experience.

Let's hope our phones are on UPS99 right now heading to Anchorage because there are no more flights today or tomorrow according to flightaware.

For them to keep the 11/16 dates most of us now have, they would have to be on that plane.

Well this does seem to get better (NOT). From an estimated delivery date of the 16th it changed to the 17th. Smh

My date hasn't changed from the 16th, in fact I got an email from UPS saying it was coming tomorrow. BUT, it has been sitting in Louisville, KY for the last 31 hours since it's arrival scan there.

So so this is my latest scan:

Louisville, KY, United States 11/15/2017 9:14 A.M.

This is most definitely gonna be here on the 17th if not even later beyond that. I'm all the way down in Hawaii and if memory serves me right UPS will have a final scan in California before making it down this way. So most likely the 17th indeed if not even later just for the hell of it at this point. Who knows. Smh!

Well, I had two notifications saying delivery time not available (UPS) and Apple saying November 20th. It left Incheon, Korea yesterday and by 6:30 am this morning it arrived in Oklahoma City by way of Anchorage and Louisville Kentucky!

But I got it!! Negan is watching it till I have time to get it set up. :D

Lucky duck. Looks like some of us got unlucky by a day, then.

Where are you located at? I wonder if being far from Louisville, KY has much to do with it, plus if it's small town vs. a metropolitan area.
I meant with them shipping out of China. I'm from Atlanta. My phone just got to Incheon today, so it seems like it's going to be delayed over the weekend.

So so disappointed! After the long wait and it finally being delivered I'm noticing flaws that is now leading to a return for an exchange which God knows how long this process will take. Smh.

EDIT: The flaws is glue coming out of the frame around the phone and also the sim tray not sitting flushed with the frame, it basically sticks out a tiny bit. YouTuber SoldierKnowsBest did a video showing how the sim tray on the silver model he had was sticking out a tiny bit. So the flaws is that along with excess glue coming out from the sides of the stainless steel frame.

The Apple Store should be able to give you a replacement right away. They have replacement units set aside just for replacement.
