The shipping seems random at best - I ordered the same phone also - email confirmation at 12:18pm PST no movement no charge. I think next year I might just pay for my device outright and order from apple. The apple thread has movement in the morning and evening for JB Verizon 7+'s some with ORIGINAL shipping dates in early to mid October
This launch IS a mess so next years will be even worst....Im losing faith in Verizon pre orders. I forgot last year this happened to me also - I ended up finding my 128gb SG iPhone 6s + at a BB store 80 miles from my home and the mobile manager saved it for me to make the drive.
