Hey, does anyone knows if I put my order in now, what are the chances it arrives before estimated dates ?
Or is it more luck picking one up at an apple store somewhere in LA ?

My original scheduled delivery on UPS was for Friday but since I decided to pick it up at a UPS location, it now says Monday. Has this ever happen to anyone and it was delivered to the UPS earlier than that? Kind of sucks that I now have to wait Monday.

I placed my order Thursday 10/7 and had had a ship date of 10/15-10/22, but woke up today to a FedEx tracking number. It’s coming from Indiana it seems.

13 Pro Max 256 Sierra Blue ordered from AT&T.

Did you request a pick up at UPS Store or UPS CC? Usually if you request a pick up at the UPS Store, they do list it there that it "May" possibly delay a business day. Some have had luck being able to pick it up on the same day. But it's a hit or miss if you select UPS Store. Oppose to UPS CC. See if you can cancel the request because you do have the option to cancel the request if needed.

Same. 🙋🏻‍♂️ Hoping that it starts moving today and we get it on time or by Friday. From the stories I have read of people that went through the same, there seems to be an average 4-5 days to get past status.

I placed an order a couple of days ago with a delivery estimate in late November. I found the two I want to buy at the same store in Mission Viejo yesterday and almost pulled the trigger but waited too long cuz I didn’t want to make the drive (about an hour away) and then naturally it sold out. Especially as the days tick by I think it will get easier and easier to pick one up in store. Doesn’t hurt to place an order for delivery just in case though.

That was my plan. I ordered the night they went on sale - very late for iPhone pre-orders. I was dismayed to see my expected delivery estimate of Oct 18-Oct 25. I figured the 13 Pro Max would be available in stores long before that so I could buy at the Apple Store and cancel my online order. Well, they're still rare as hen's teeth and vanish in a heartbeat when one or two show up in inventory anyplace.

My delivery window at Apple firmed up and was advanced to Oct 12, buoying my spirits considerably. Then UPS sent me the "Label Created" email and things started moving quickly. I received my 13PM on Oct 8, exactly when UPS said and almost three weeks earlier than my original estimate. Happy happy happy. :)

Is anyone else seeing that the details of the Verizon Play More Unlimited and Do More Unlimited plans are mixed up on the Apple website and app? I was looking at the 5g plans and see this (screenshot below). The Play More plan should be the one that has the Disney/Hulu/ESPN bundle while the Do More should have the 600GB Verizon cloud storage but Apple has it reversed.

I just came here to ask about this. Found this post and apparently they still haven’t fixed it 3 weeks later. So do I go by the name, or description?

Just updated to delivery tomorrow!
I'm so jealous! I ordered my 13 Pro 256 Sierra Blue from Apple on 9-18. My original UPS delivery estimate was 10-14. Today it slipped to 10-16, then 10-18, and later 10-20. Now it says to check back tomorrow for a better estimated delivery date. It spent 4 days in ZZ. I thought when it got to Korea, it would be a quick trip to the US. Guess I was wrong. 😥😥

... has finally joined the shipment conversation.

Finally got notice of shipping label created for my Sierra Blue Pro Max. It's scheduled for delivery (Apple says) on October 21st. Though UPS says it is estimated for delivery on October 19th. Seems like Apple is usually more pessimistic about it's estimates and stuff usually arrives earlier than they say it will.

The wheels are finally in motion...yay!

Same here. Finally saw movement this morning. Along with the updated delivery date. Now to see where the next leg of the journey will be and how long it will take to get there.

I had the same. Mine is in Korea as of this morning. UPS is telling me 10/19. Hoping it may be sooner based on what i've read on here but we shall see. I accidentally left my current iPhone on the stove, so the camera doesn't work. I desperately need a working camera.

UPS is also telling me Oct 19. Apple originally estimated 10/21 - 10/28 then when it went to preparing to shipment it went to 10/25 - 11/1. Shipped last night and Apple says Oct 22
