After all this talk of cases and the FineWoven debacle - I realized I don't have a case ordered. Generally I go caseless - but some situations and outings require a bit more caution. Fixed this issue for now. Clay looks like it will compliment the Natty Titanium well.

Good morning and Happy Wednesday,

I just woke up. It is currently Wednesday, September 20, 2023, around 5:30 AM. September is my favorite month and where is this month going? It’s moving so fast. Tomorrow is going to be a big day for all of us.

Also, today is the day. Stay tuned for what's yet to come. Major announcement coming later this evening. 👀 🤫 I hope everyone is going to have a wonderful day.

Shot taken on February 17, 4:37 PM. iPhone 14 Pro Max - Space Needle, Seattle, Washington.

You could.

my husband did it too. He also purchased an unlocked iPhone in full payment and got converted to ACMI with 0% interest.

this is a good to note though. Apple Card Specialist said this may not be eligible in the future:

Still says preparing for shipment on mine while being stated for delivery on 9/22….
You'll get your phone on time. It'll display as shipped once it is scanned out of Louisville and onto a flight to your local area. This usually happens Wednesday or Thursday night. You may be pleasantly greeted with a shipping notification when you wake up tomorrow.

Customs clearance is generally, for these kinds of services (e.g. custom direct distribution logistics from large carriers with very long standing and well integrated relationships with CBP/DHS) done electronically while goods are in possession of the carrier or in an FTZ (PANC...KSDF WorldPort....), and by the nature of the UI clearances occur in a location the package may or may not physically be in, too, so it's not "not real", it's actually being filed for the container/master tracking number/whatever's on that bill of lading, etc, but the clearance process is largely disconnected from physical inspection in nearly all cases for this stuff.

Aftership tells me this, with a spurious customs clearance way out of place near the beginning of the tracking progress. It's not real because the times don't correlate with the phone's arrival in Louisville. I've seen this before.

My UPS driver eats at the same Diner 2 miles away from me every day. Unfortunately, it's always a different driver bet they all eat at the same diner st the same time. On Friday the waitress is gonna call me when he walks in the door. If I don't way lay him then I won't get my package till 8pm.
We’ve hit a new level ladies and gentlemen. Got waitresses stalking UPS drivers and calling so people can go get their phones at a diner. Holy hell

I got my Clay silicone case today....see my post a few pages back. It doesn't look ANYTHING like the color shown on the website. In real life, it's such a dark charcoal grey it's almost black. Very disappointing because I loved the color shown on the website.

Everyone's says that right now. They don't flip to Shipped status until they clear customs in Louisville sometime tomorrow. Get a few UPS MyChoice account, and you will likely be able to track it from China.
Do orders set for store pickup clear customs with the home delivery waves or do they scan out of SDF earlier?

If you're set for store pickup, you can't track your individual phone. Those ship to the stores in batches and you don't get individual tracking. Probably tomorrow you will get the "your order will be ready for pickup" notification for whatever time you have reserved on Friday.

You should share your 1st iPhone Day moment with the gallery.

BTW...did you finally clear your 20000+ emails? 😁
