Did you use the app to buy? The app offered me Apple Upgrade, Apple installments (no upgrade) and ATT Next as options right after picking the phone. If you didn't scroll down you might have only seen the Apple option. Also, Jet Lag pays off... I got up early and was able to reserve a phone for pickup today.

How does the apple stocking system even work? Using istocknow and the apple website shows that they add stock at really arbitrary times of the day. Do they just get a bunch of stock delivered in the morning and trickle it out over the course of the day?

I would guess they put all their stock up in the morning, and any stock you see after that is from people who don't show up or aren't able to purchase. Also it's possible they get more than one shipment a day?

Any ideas on how long apple will hold your reserved device? I can't get to the store until tomorrow or Sunday for my wife's watch.

Bum the Sad posted:WTF let's trace my iphone Shipping is all about logistics, they probably had more open space an a flight from Incheon and Hong Kong and then to the US than they had on a direct flight to the US from Incheon. This isn't like your local package delivery, UPS operates frequent and regularly scheduled cargo flights between all of the major cities in the world, the cost of sticking it on a plane that makes an extra stop is marginal compared to sticking a crate that someone is paying a shitload of money to overnight across the world.

Anyone else get the text from AT&T saying their phone was on the way, when it reality your ship date hasn't changed? I got another text a few days later saying "oh, yeah, that phone really isn't on it's way yet, but hey, trade in your old phone for account credit!" loving AT&T.

Yeah, I didn't think that shipping is about logistics and also the compound wisdom if machine learning that equates 5000 man-years and is not even graspable by mere humans is in the fact that a delivery bounces through 35 places and then ends up being in a "Sorry we can't give you an estimate, also mechanical failure, oh and also inclement weather at 70 degrees and fair" state. FedEx never had this, ever, but they're using the WRONG algorithm. It would have gotten delivered, but in the WRONG way! Because it's not this sophisticated! All joking aside, I got the iPhone a day later, and yesterday I was busy doing different things anyway. So its all good, I understand what you mean, but it comes across as being a little to respectful of their BS.

Still sitting at processing but I got an auth for the first month's payment and MY delivers by date jumped up by 2 days so I am thinking it is about to ship. Kinda glad it didn't ship earlier since we have been at the hospital with the new baby but are coming home tomorrow.

Verizon people may want to check their ship dates. my 7+ jet black 128 was due to ship 11/06 but got updated to 10/12.

Still 11/2, but you are giving me hope.

At this point, I don't know why people aren't canceling and just reserving at their local Apple Store. e: Actually, if they're not cool and won't let you use your carrier financing or far away, I get it

I got a shipping notification for my 256GB Gold 7+, and it blows my mind that it's only taking slightly more than 24 hours to get from the factory to my front door on the east coast of the US.

I don't even know why Apple needed all my Verizon info to even try to take my order or what upgrade eligibility has to do with anything in a world of full price phones. Should go: I want a CDMA phone. Don't have it now? Ok give me a date when I can pick it up.

Do you have a car? Just call them and go pick it up at the warehouse. Tonight. Otherwise UPS will retry on the next business day IIRC. Didn't even know weekend delivery was a thing, you Americans are spoiled.

I've been turned away from getting a non-Saturday delivery package on Saturday at the depot before because "it's already packed on the truck for delivery on Monday."
