@TheYayAreaLiving You throw the best parties! 🎊 🎆 🍻🥂 📱
Thank you for starting this thread and compiling SO MUCH great info in the wiki post (and also, I probably messed it up when I added the tracking links-if so, I am sorry!)
You are fine. Thank you for all your help and contribution. I appreciate you. This is teamwork and we have to have each other’s back before desperation sets in. It’s going to be a very long week.

Update: @Wolfs I just updated your links. Check it out and let me know how it looks now ;)

I am looking at the Spigen case right now, and it says it supports magsafe charge, but wouldn't a case need a magnagtic circle to support Magsafe charging?
Not really. It supports it, that doesn't mean it has the MagSafe connector. So it won't stick as well as a MagSafe case. It'll still charge it though.
 
Correct! I expect to see some activity this evening or later tonight. Expect iPhones to start shipping and traveling out from China on Sunday.

Last year, huge pallets of iPhones missed the flight and there was a slight delay for the iPhones to be out of China on time. I believe it was the #9:20 gang. Believe it or not Apple had to pull the strings. There was a panic attack there. For the reference see it below :) post #18,023

It was a very long wait before any movement was made. See below 👇

I was able to order two 13 Pros for launch day store pickup, late this afternoon. I didn’t expect inventory to last that long but I’ll take it! Trading in two with the TMo promo for an extra $600

They are fun chatty group 💬 but it’s a mystery… what topics are they even discussing? What are they talking about. We need to assign a person who can go there and report it back to us. 🤪
On page 4 of the thread, someone mentioned the phones are expensive because of Brexit and then it just all went downhill from there. 151 pages later…

As in 2020 I preordered. This is supposed to save all your purchase details to make it easier when you actually purchase.

As in 2020, I didn’t see the saved preorder when the Apple Store finally materialized on my iPhone. I instead went to “search” and started with “recently viewed.” This meant that I had to choose some details anew.

Did anyone else not see the link to their saved pre-order? I am always in a hurry to get the order finished so I can get my iPhone with the first phones shipped.
I had to tap on my icon of myself to see my orders and it was there.
 
Well damn. Today was my turn for a never ending series of failures trying to get my pre-order through. I guess I am paying for the last 3 years of everything working fine and getting the iPhone delivered on launch date. Today, I was in the store on my iPhone with my "ready to go" pre-order 1 minute past 5AM and spent the next 45 minutes being tortured that my Apple Card data was incorrect, the one or two times it made it past that the Citizen's one loan was denied and they will be sending me a letter even though the pre-order was supposed to take care of all that.

I had appointments to attend to and did not get back to try again for about 2 hours, same crap, your Apple Card info is wrong. I changed the MOP to a different card, still your credit card information is wrong. Finally called GS Apple and they said, as I knew, nothing wrong with my Apple card just too many people crashed the auth system. By this time 6 or 7 hours after I first started the ship date was now October 18TH!!!!FML. Tried a few more times with the pain of cutting and pasting my Apple card information, CVV, expiry date and all that still no go. Finally at 12:08 it went right through, shipping 18-25Oct. 7 hours to get it ordered to be shipped in about a month. Not happy with you Apple.

On the other hand I have my pretty new nice smelling leather Apple Pro Max case sitting on my desk as it arrived today...
Sorry to hear about that mate. At least you'll get your iPhone in time for Christmas 🤣
