Has anyone's phone shipped faster than FedEx's estimated delivery date? My iPhone shipped this morning (7/7), and the estimated delivery date is 7/13, but I'm really hoping it'll be faster than that. Has anyone had any pleasant surprises? Mine's coming from China and going to Georgia, if that makes any difference.
I wouldn't hold your breath on it showing up early. Although my FedEx estimated delivery is the 13th and the Apple estimate is the 12th. Some people of this board have said that theirs actaully came in a day or 2 early.
If you read the discussions around here, you'll find that Apple might ship early, you'll get it earlier. But once it's in the FedEx system, the estimated date is fairly accurate. I got mine one day early, but that seems to have been an issue with FedEx estimated date over the July 4 holidays.
Okay I ordered my iphone on the 20th. I was told delivery of the 14th. On the 5th I got an email saying it shipped. Fed Ex estimated deliver at 10:30 am on the 8th. Well last night I checked my tracking and it was an Anchorage Alaska. This morning at 8 am my door bell was ringing and it was my iphone! So it came a good 24 hours faster than Fed Ex estimated. Hope this helps
