Nice going UPS.
Of all days... of all deliveries... they had to botch this one!
Everything was going as planned last night before I went to bed. Then this morning I woke to find that my phone was mis-sorted and that the delivery would therefore be delayed until the 27th (estimated).
I got pissed and made my way to the Apple store to see if, by chance, they had available a Graphite Pro with 512GB. Nope. They had all the other colors in that capacity, but not the one I wanted. As I walked away, disgusted, I thought to myself, "you're just going to put it in a case, so what difference does the color make?" So I turned around and told the Apple Store employee that I'd take a Sierra Blue 512. He reserved it in the system and told me that I'd have to come back in five hours to pick it up. They had it in stock-- but I had to come back. Go figure.

When I got home I saw the postal carrier filling my box with a package. It turned out to be my Pitaka MagEX case. Bittersweet.

"Sortation"? Interesting word.
 
Been ordering these for years and never seen this happen! I hope it’s not right …

I’m in the same boat. I called UPS and the guy said that I can’t pick up my phone at the facility it’s at, even though it has a cc there because it’s not the destination facility. He also said the computer says that the sender put an exception on the package to hold for one business day. That doesn’t even make any sense. It’s all paid for, etc. I’m not getting mine until Monday. Not happy!!!
 
Got mine at 8:15 am At the apple store. Missed the standing ovation by one person in line.

Yay! Congratulations! Your pretty cases are waiting for the new iPhone. It’s finally here. Hope you enjoy your day :)
 
If you want to track the UPS truck that’s delivering in real time, try pkge.net app. It will show you on a map exactly where the truck is.
Mine is about a mile away, but it will take it couple hours to get to my house. So impatient.

Mine is out for delivery!!! Now comes the anticipation. In the meantime, I am doing some cleanup on my iPhone 6S+ to prepare it for iPhone to iPhone transfer. Will need to setup the iPhone 13 as new,
A lot has happened since I ordered my phone last week. I got a cool new job offer, and decided to order a second phone for myself to use as a work phone.. I’m crazy!!!!
iPhone magic is real
Do we think I should be concerned if it was out for delivery and now its clearing customs? I think it's likely just a fluke?
scans out of order. No worries
