Seriously though, I bet I’m gonna get it super late today. Am I glad that I decided to go to work, even though I’m leaving early I would have been pissed had I stayed home all day.

I've been waiting all day they told me they could expidite the delivery to before noon I called and they had a late truck so it was pushed back to the original agreed time of 3. At 3 I'm gonna call again if I knew it was going to be so long I would have gone to Best Buy to pickup my Watch and do some other things but now I wasted my day waiting for them. UPS would have allowed me to hold it at there CC. I hate how you can't with FedEx!
 
I'm enjoying reading everyone's posts about waiting for and receiving your new phones. I waited to order until Saturday morning so it won't be delivered until 9/29 (my birthday), but I bought the phone for my husband since he has a 5S and needs one more than me. I will have to wait until November to get a new one, but I still enjoy soaking in your enthusiasm! Enjoy your phones everyone.
 
Phone received, restored, sexy AF. Enjoy everyone, I gave the fedex guy a Powerade think I made his day.
 
It’s pretty quiet! Does everyone have their phones but me? Mine has been out for delivery for 8+ hours! Usually FedEx delivers around 9:30. :confused:
 
Just got my Verizon iPhone 8 via UPS here in Reno, NV. I’ve been waiting 15 minutes for activation so far… but at least what I’ve seen of the new iPhone setup capability is pretty slick!
 
Waited out the storm, ordered for in store pickup around 8am this morning. Went off without a hitch and said there were models matching in stock. Have not had any movement on my order and CS states it’s just a waiting game now.

Jk walked into the Verizon store, they’ve had it ready for six hours ‍♂️
 
I had 0 idea if my phone would be coming today since it was ordered through my company. I was very pleasantly surprised when I got a text from my IT guy saying my phone had arrived!

Oh hell! That's just rude!
[doublepost=1506115100][/doublepost]I just got my iPhone 8 Plus 256GB delivered here in DFW by FedEx! Now begins the fun.

Trying to purchase AppleCare at the moment.
 
ok, false alarm sorta...the FedEx guy swapped my box with a neighbor’s and he realized it when he got to their house. The yellow label on the first package I got (the photo is MY package, just showing how it looked) was haphazardly placed so that it was covering the recipient’s name. I heard a honk in the driveway and saw him out there again. Whew! Whoever the neighbor is would’ve gotten the good end of that deal!!!
[doublepost=1506115639][/doublepost]Right, that’s what my husband said! “The 8 is out and someone bought a 6S?” lol. He walked in from work while I was standing there in disbelief trying to call Verizon!

Someone actually ordered an Iphone 6?

WOW, you FedEx guy must e fairly new, but giving the person the benefit maybe the person who is getting the 6s was a insurance replacement or for a young teen. ;) But I would have been really shocked if I received the wrong phone.

Got mine at ~4PM. Activated on other line, did all the backup stuff and swapped through Verizon/SIM cards. All setup and ready to go. Now I’ll just have to sync up my local music and I’ll be 100% done!

Well all set up, the hardest part was paring my watch to the new phone. it had been almost two years with my 6s+ and I totally forgot. I remember when I went from the 6+ to the 6s it was a real pain and took forever. When I bought the watch they actually did it for me at the Apple Store. Once I figured it out it worked but just like the newest update it takes a bit longer to transfer everything over. but I believe I am good to go. I am seeing a huge difference in pictures and colors.
 
Mine now says left Memphis at 4:26, not sure how I will get it in MI by 8. That sucks considering its been ready since Tuesday. Not happy

Shocked to say the least! I was thinking insurance replacement since there’s no paperwork in there, but the phone is in a new sealed box along with an Otterbox (I opened the box upside down and my first thought was “oh nice they threw in a free case for preordering!” lol) so who knows. Oh well I got my phone so all is well after that minor heart attack! :D
