I was going to buy the gold in the store but it sold out super quickly where I am, so I had to order from the website around 2:00 p.m. Mine doesn't even have a date ... it just says it will ship in October.

[johndhynes]

Me too! Still haven't received my shipping notice though. I'm sure others are still waiting as well. I think we'll all see our 5s' early-to-mid next week.

I have not received a shipping notice. It just says:

Processing ItemsAvailable to ship: 1 - 3 business days
Delivers: Sep 30 - Oct 2 by Standard Shipping

When I click the little arrow it says:

Processing Items:
We are processing your order now. You can modify your order details through online Order Status, or by contacting Apple Online Store Customer Service.

Reading the tea leaves, 1-3 business days means Monday-Wednesday, and whichever day it ships, it's 1 week to deliver. I.e., if it ships on Monday the 23rd, it will arrive by Monday the 30th. I suppose it's too much to hope for anything shipping before Monday.

It's going to be a looong weekend.

I just checked ATT again, and it looks like they finally have my upgrade showing as used and my contract date was updated. So that's a good sign. I also lol'd because they had my husband's iPad listed as my main phone line on that account...I was like uh no, and you know that's wrong. So I spent 10 minutes trying to figure out how the hell to change that, and finally got it corrected.

It's still processing for me as well:

Very long weekend indeed... Haha. I was able to get the 2-3 business day shipping, so I'm hoping that if it ships Monday, it'll arrive Wednesday or Thursday of next week. My delivery estimate is Sep. 27th - Oct. 1st.

No ordering for me this year, walked into verizon at noon today and picked up a 32gb in gray.

[jrdnlc]

I picked up a 64GB 5s today at the AT&T store.

Arrived at 7:30am and was the 10th person in line, was out by 9am.

[TheRewardisCheese]

Yay...just got the email that ATT shipped and will be here Monday ...looks like I will be taking a day off from work lol.

Wow, already?! AT&T is fast... Hurry it up Apple! What shipping did you select?

[B1ue_B1aze]

Mine says ships 1 - 3 days and delivery estimate is Sept. 30 - Oct. 2. I ordered the Space Gray T-Mobile 16GB model with a black 5s case and AppleCare+ directly from Apple.com right when the store opened. I just hope that delivery estimate is way off, as I'd love to get it next week !

[TheRewardisCheese]

Yep...also helped that I paid for overnight shipping too Its going to be a lonnnnnnng weekend lol.

You lucky man! The fastest shipping I could select on Apple's website was 2-3 business day shipping. It'll be a long weekend for you, and an even longer week for me... Haha

LOL Yes, but the important thing is we will be getting our iphone 5S's

[B1ue_B1aze]

Are the delivery estimates accurate that we are seeing or not? If it says it ships in 1-3 days and it does, how then heck would it take that long?

[TheRewardisCheese]

I am not sure about Apples shipping estimates but AT&T's is all over the place. When I ordered mine this morning at 12:04am, the site said ships in 7-14 days. Then I got an email later around 9am which said will ship between Oct 21-Oct31. Then when I check my order status online, it said changed to Oct 1 - Oct 31. Then around 530pm this evening I got the email that said it shipped (Tracking number for FedEx shows it was picked up and en route for delivery Monday, Sept 23rd).

I take shipping estimates with a small grain of salt, as they can change at the drop of a hat for any reason.

Makes me think I should have ordered online through AT&T and not Apple.

[B1ue_B1aze]

I just checked and my 5s case has moved onto the preparing for shipping phase . The actual 5s however is still processing.

[B1ue_B1aze]

I'm glad I skipped the lines though. Just read about my local Apple store had several hundred in line.

7-10 business days to ship when ordered
Est. ship date of Oct 20-30 when order completed
Est. ship date of Oct 1-10 earlier today
Shipped with a Mon ETA as of about 2 hours ago

AT&T, you've had the iPhone since Day One. If I get it Monday, don't misunderstand and think that I'm complaining (I'm not), but have you seriously still not figured out how to manage an iPhone launch?

Which shipping option did you choose?

[budmonster]

I'd love to purchase 2 of these bad boys. Been on Android way too long, been dying to try Apple, never here. Too bad I'm still on unlimited data with Verzion and only way to get the 5s is too either pay full retail or add to ghost lines and add $20+ to my already crazy bill. Someday...I..will...have..an..iPhone.

[ZanKuvy]

Was getting everything ready to place it on the apple store but I bumped into some international delivery issues... Can't get it out of the US

[necigrad]

The free one, but they sent it out FedEx Standard Overnight

[MRSBROWN2006]

Picked mine up in store tonight. Black 32gb gray/black. Wasn't my first choice initially, but now I actually love it! VZ screwed up big time (hence no silver/white for me). But I love the dark phone, and next time, I will just wait it out at Apple.

Ordered 32GB silver through Comcast's Verizon site at 5am yesterday with estimated ship date of 9/30 (Comcast is giving people who do a Verizon upgrade through them a $100 prepaid debit card). Order was spontaneously canceled at 7:30 am. Called Comcast around 10:30 to reorder, expected ship date is now 10/7

I first went online to my carrier (Sprint) at 2am yesterday but after noticing the bold warning boxes stating there was up to a 3 wk delay with shipments with them, I decided to try Best Buy and scored a space gray 5s after reading the comments here stating people were getting same day pick up. Since I had to work a 12 hour shift yesterday, picking mine up this morning. Can't wait!
