Ok, I finally ordered my iPhone 7 Plus and was a bit dismayed to see the ship time is 3-4 weeks still. I check istocknow and there are plenty of the regular sized and scattered but slim iPhone 7 Plus available. I have been watching it day to day and they are really scattered.

Question, are the people who ordered the iPhone 7 Plus with several week shipping dates been seeing them ship earlier than projected?

Was it a plus? The regular size seems to be abundant but the plus is absent.

I'd say still plan on watching. Last I saw a big update on istocknow.com with the plus's that I wanted (Black) at the time was 9/27/16 and after that I haven't seen any Plus's in the apple store near me. I take it sometimes this week some apple stores may get some in stock. Keep checking.

I ordered mine October 2nd in store at AT&T (iPhone 7+ 256 GB Matte Black) and it was estimated 3-4 weeks to ship but I received it October 7th. I was totally caught off guard. Was nice. :)

Great news! I'm hopeful now. Ty

I ordered my + and they said the delivery date is "Delivers 08 Nov, 2016 - 15 Nov, 2016 by Standard Shipping"
I went to work 2 days later and told I'm being sent to Spain for work from Nov 9 to 18 :(
I called and they can not change it to in store pickup ( not avail )
*sighs*

I may have to cancel and re-order when I get back if it doesn't ship ahead of sched.
*sigh*

If you have an Apple Store near you I'd check istocknow.com and see if any Plus model comes in and if you see it's available you can cancel your order and do a store pick up.

I've been checking iStocknow daily. I'm up at 5am and check than and at 8:30

:)

I don't recall iStocknow being around last year. It's a great tool!

Am I just screwed being a business customer?
