Anyone have experience just going in store and picking up a reserved phone thats "preparing to ship" at this point?? I using ATT next, not IUP, and theres a IP7+ in my color and storage available for reservation at my local Apple Store.
Yup! I did that today and they only had silver iphone plus 123gb so I got it!!! You reserve through calling them. They really helped me reserved the phone.
 
Same here! I really don't know what to expect anymore, I'm supposed to get the phone Tusesday but I don't know now.
Still in ZhengZhou (according to the tracking number) and still saying it's expected Tuesday. China to Pennsylvania in two days? I guess it's possible..

Just got an update from ups its 'in transit 8:31pm', but the ups website still just says 'location scan 8:31pm'

i hope its here tuesday!!
 
Well, I don't understand anything anymore, all my mails from apple and their website tell me that my black 256gb plus will arrive tomorrow the 19th of September but my UPS shipping status hasn't changed from "arrival scan at ZhengZhou" at all since Thursday!

I really hope UPS messed up their tracking system and that apple is telling me the truth, but I don't know! Does this even happen?

UPS tracking is way more accurate, it won't be at ur doorsteps tomorrow.
 
Ordered on the 9th like most people, initially had a delivery date of the end of September. But thanks to a credit card hiccup I was bumped to 4-10 Oct. My order changed to Preparing for Shipment on Friday I think. No charge to my bank but with it being the weekend, that's not surprising. Hopefully some progress will be made sometime Monday (today).

dont listen to the guy who responded that you won't have it. Shipping dates are usually on point, might be slim chance you wait an extra day. Sometimes shipping details don't update immediately or in a timely fashion for that matter

Just wait for 'out for delivery' to appear in the morning. I'd say around 5-6am'ish when the trucks are getting loaded.

Good luck.
 
Go back to your post 9189. And read what you posted . For what ever reason UPS delivered some iPhones today 99% that missed Friday will be delivered Monday . Enough said on this!
You're a strange individual, why am I re-reading what I posted? I thought they lied about making a delivery attempt, because I was here and they didn't. But turns out they delivered to my neighbors (same apartment #, different building number, happens a lot. They left the info notice). Several people with delivery scheduled on Friday, who were impacted by weather, received delivery on Saturday. This thread is proof of that. So please tell me, what on earth is your point? Keep in mind not every UPS hub offers Saturday service at all.

My delivery window is 29 Sept - 3 Oct. i know it's later than you but I've seen people with mid october delivery moved to PFS. What's wrong with apple?
I have no idea. But maybe orders are being handled differently in Europe than in the US.
 
The pre-order time is too slow for us! i will get my phone in October, it's really amazing for its orders. Anyway, got a not bad iphone 7 cases ahead.

For those who have a delivery date of 20th(UPS) and are in the US, don't worry, you should start seeing movement in the morning, the phones will be here by Monday night and will be transit through out the night to their final destinations. Unless we have weather or other delays (highly unlikely), we will get it on time. No need to refresh the UPS tracking every 10mins, take a peaceful night sleep and wake up to find some movement, or maybe during lunch if you are on the east coast.

Scheduled Delivery:
Tuesday, 09/20/2016
Estimated Delivery Time:
11:45 A.M. - 3:45 P.M.
Last Location:
ZhengZhou, China, Sunday, 09/18/2016

Same thing going on here. Only my estimated delivery is 9/21 and the last location was 9/17 in ZhengZhou. I am thinking once it gets an arrival scan in the US, the whole shipping history will update. Wouldn't be the first time I have had something like that happen.

Guys, little off-topic. Anyone hears a buzzing sound when placing the back of the phone near your ear?
Should I be concerned?

You probably have a better chance getting that answered in a thread where people already have their phones.

I'm in the same shoes as yourself. My last location scan is from Zhengzhou on the 17th. Scheduled for delivery on 9/21 as well.

Ya. I've noticed in the past shipments don't update as well on weekends with UPS. Monday around 5-6am is when I think things start flowing again.

For UPS to send me an email yesterday morning with a delivery date of the 22nd, then change that to the 20th, I would think that the shipping side knows exactly where the phones are, but the customer side does not. Just the delivery date.

With MyChoice I get that 4 hour window.
