My iPhone 6+ (2 years ago) was supposed to be delivered on Friday but ended up coming on a Saturday via UPS. Might be pricey but they'll still do it.
They also generally want to keep up on the shipping.. So from UPS perspective, it would be bad to not ship Saturday..
 
I honestly feel pretty confident that our 9/27 and later dates don't mean anything, just means they were part of the second batch they were getting probably and they didn't quite know when. I think it could be this batch of planes coming in tonight. They could pull a squeeze play for Friday, or default to Saturday (which I think they do with next day deliveries).

IMG_5021.JPG Just picked up my order (case and charger for MacBook) from the Apple Store here in Tampa. Guy was super friendly. Asked him about launch. He said it will be insane. Also mentioned that plus models were in super high demand this go around, and he has a wait time longer than me and that he was jealous lol.
 
So basically I should have stayed with a carrier that uses FedEx. This whole tmobile experience has been a regular hootenanny. The csr's who can speak English are super helpful and confident... they're just all wrong, the csr's who can't speak English are probably just as helpful and confident... they're just unintelligible. Legere seems to be just this side of a pumpkin and this whole preorder has been one giant clusterfark with little to no correct information flow from the company itself, we're having to find out through guys on the internet who have relatives who deliver papers to people who clean the toilets in the head office that MY IPHONE IS GOING TO BE LATE!

Of course, if I'd just paid attention to the original ship date I'd not be naked on top of the roof flinging poo at passersby at this point.

This is marvelous. Lost it @ "relatives who deliver papers to people who clean the toilets"
 
If it is the customer center, where all packages are processed and loaded onto trucks, it will be available for pick-up at opening or shortly there after.

Great! Yes, the customer center I chose to pick up is in Baldwin Park, CA and I know for a fact that every UPS package I've received goes through Baldwin Park, CA before getting delivered, so it's same to say that's the center where they get loaded, yes?
 
People are way too bent out of shape over this. Devices can still be charged and shipped tonight and delivered tomorrow. I have 9/19-9/26 delivery and I'm not worrying about it.
True. Unless youre order is a 7+, in which case it most likely won't be tomorrow. If your shipping date said 9/16 (which some did), then you'd be good to go.
 
You'd have a tracking number then...
correct, my tracking number wasnt created until it was in technically in the US. but the origin scan which is right after that is Louisville, KY, United States
