I ordered on launch day 9/9 at 8am. Ordered the 256GB iPhone 7 Plus Matte Black. The 32GB models were pretty much free to get with no down money down so everyone went with it.

This is totally normal..

Do you think I will have any chance of getting it launch day? Or am I doomed to wait till October lol

Ok. So this is what happened to me and wanted to share with you. Friday 2am I pre-ordered online on T-Mobile.com an iPhone 7+ 32Gb. I wasn't able to find anything related to the trade-in process with the iPhone 6. Received a form to sign online plus a text message, delivery estmated 09/20 -10/10. Today went to a T-Mobile store to see how the trade-in will work and they told me I should have done it at the same time than the preorder and I should have seen something to click on for the trade in during the preorder ... The only solution was to cancel my current order and restart the process by putting a new one in the store. My shipping date went from end of September to 11/1 - 11/30... Quite a disappointment :(

I don't think this is correct.

Where it says: Already pre-ordered iPhone 7? Start your trade-in
It brings you to the regular trade-in page that's used for all trade-ins. When you checkout and after you submit your order, you get a pop-up to start your trade-in process but it also gives the option to do it later.

Rep told me I didn't pay for next day and that's why I'm getting a ship date of 9/27 to 10/10 but for the last three upgrades never had to thought that was weird. I ordered 7 plus black 128 g

Rep told me I didnt have to pay for shipping since T-Mobile will waive off the shipping and give everyone overnight shipping free.

Totally not true. if you pre-order you will get over night. those who order after the pre-order will have to pay. It has been this way for the last 4 iPhone launches.

Just setup the credit card alert so I can know when I get charged lol. I ordered the 7 plus 128GB in Black while I was overseas. It took me several tries to get the order through. My ship date is 9/27-10/10. Hopefully we'll see them earlier than that.

Everyone is supposed to get free overnight shipping, but if you order over the phone... the rep still has to "select" overnight shipping. Last year, the rep tried to screw me on the overnight shipping for my 6S and I had to correct them on the policy. They were like, "Oh... I guess you're right."
