iPhone 6 Plus October Orders!

Yes, you are absolutely right. The demand about Iphone 6/6+ is getting higher. However, my point is we can have a better probably of getting this phone sooner. I didn't say we will have this phone asap since the other country is launching selling iphone. I will show you a few perspective

1. As you know, Apple only launch selling iphone in a few country at first, therefore demand force from the other country will focus on which country that Apple launch, therefore supplier from those country is always short. Think about if supplier has 100 iphones, then maybe only 20 to 50 will be sold for local people, the 50 will be taken away to the other country.

2. Don't get me wrong, you point out the fact China has double back order than 10 million back order that we in US have, and China not even launch yet. This is also means China people willing to pay at all cost to get iphone 6/6+ even in US on eBay there are people sell over $1000 for iphone then to think in China it will cost more to have. Plus, if you do a few research you will see a total sale Iphone of Apple come from outside US not inside US, and the price in US + Japan is as right now cheapest on entire world, well to think why don't the other country buy in US and sell outside US.

These are 2 main reasons, I would think ok if the demand force is moving so another places, well then in US 10 million back order will be reduce then we are in US will have a better probably of getting phone sonner. I SAID THE CHANCE IS BETTER, DOESN'T MEANING WE WILL.

Thank you. So today changed occurred in my iphone status.

09/19 2014 Ordered from Apple online AT&T 128 gold 6+ Given a Oct 20-27 delivery date.

Order placed in a "Processing Status" until today OCT 14

Order placed in "Prep to Ship" status as of OCT 14. Delivery date remains the same Oct 20-27 Online Apple.

Unfortunately from a similar people-waiting-for-their-6+ thread that ran in Sept, several reported at least 2-3 days in a holding pattern of the "prep for ship" status before any movement of their phone status change over to "shipped"...Unbelievably this even once to the "shipped" status, many reported of a delay until they received an actual tracking number, then actually see any movement of their phone to address.

So...lol, am I excited??

Well cautiously yes, but as mentioned here until that track number arrives would not plan too soon on "signing" for that phone delivery.

"Preparing to ship" is just a play on words. It really just means they are doing the prep work to ship your phone. They have notified Apple that they need a phone for you and once they receive enough phones to include your order they will ship it out and either notify you by email or like some people have said you will just receive your phone. It is sneaky on their part for changing your order status to "preparing to ship". My order status has said that since I placed the order on October 3rd. My "estimated" ship window is Nov 12-21. This waiting is not fun, but I know I have to be patient. It's just nice to have somewhere to vent. Hope you get your phone sooner rather than later.

You're not crazy. I check my acct balance about 6 times a day. I check the Apple store app a few times, then I go to the website and check there. I even went on the website for UPS and FedEx and tried to track my order by reference because that worked for me with the release of the 5s. I'm going bat **** crazy!!! Lmfao. I hate to sound like a broken record but I have NEVER waited this long for and iPhone. As a matter of fact I've had the last 3 generations on launch day. It's been 19 days for me so far. I've got 6+ cases and no phone!!!

I am doing the same thing too, so you don't crazy to me. It is disappointing to not see any movement at all. I would even be excited to see my ship window get smaller by a week or two. End of October would be a huge improvement and it would let me know AT&T is really working hard to get everyone their phones ASAP.

You guys, and everyone else I've talked to about an iPhone 6+ has a better shipping date than mine. I ordered mine at the at&t store at 11 am PST on launch day Sept. 12. My estimated delivery date for the iPhone 6+ Silver 64GB is November 09 - November 27. It has been in "preparing to ship" since Sept.13.. Is it me or is 8 weeks+ a little too long.. I'm starting to think something is wrong with my order, but after a call to at&t, they just say that it's still preparing to ship just like the estimated dates say and that nothing is wrong with my order.

I ordered my iPhone 6 Plus, Space Grey 128gb AT&T on Oct 6th through the Apple Store online. My estimated delivery date is Oct 31 - Nov 7. It currently says "processing", so I'm hoping it ships maybe next week? Is that possible?

If you ordered on the 20th then I'm probably looking at 26 days before I see any action on my account. Which is roughly the time frame I was given which was Oct 28th thru Nov 4th. I just realized something how can they say 3- 4 weeks when the expected date is even later? The 27th of October marks 30 calendar days. I'm about ready to jump ship. I'm with the person who said they should send out emails to reassure waiting customers that they haven't forgotten us.

WHoooYAH! Yes! SHIPPED! Fastest status change, not even 24 hours. Tracking number indicates already movement within China, and UPS to my central USA doorstep by end of day Tuesday Oct 21st!

Finally---

Congrats! So this might be a good indicator for you all who ordered ATT phones. That you might only be your order date difference behind hondago-go. I wonder if the same can be said for Sprint orders? Would mean I am only 12 days to 13 behind you then with a Oct. 2nd order. Or maybe that is just wishful thinking. Just ***** starring at my empty case, but enjoy next tuesday!

I ordered the 64GB, Silver on Oct 8 through ATT. The estimated delivery date is Nov 17-Nov 26. When I called Apple and asked them about (just to see what they would say), they estimated the shipping date of Nov 7.

Go figure!

I ordered my 6 Plus Silver 64GB on September 26th through AT&T, The expected Shipment date for the device is 11/05/2014- 11/14/2014.

So far the date remains same.If anyone has ordered around the same time and you have an earlier shipment date please post your dates.

I ordered a 6plus 64gb space grey sept 22 with shipping dates of oct 21-28th and im still stuck on processing. you guys give me hope since u only ordered 2 days before me. maybe mine will ship out sometime this week. i am sooooo sick of waiting and checking my status!!
