Will my iPhone arrive before I leave?! :-(

Hey guys, so I have a bit of a dilemma.

I ordered my iPhone 5s - Space Grey, 16gb, T-Mobile unlocked on the 28th of Sept.

I am located in NY and will have to leave the country on the 18th to go on a business trip... My iPhone is still processing, so I was wondering if anyone had any idea or ordered around the same time as me and how long it took them? I'm just worried it will arrive after I leave... I'm debating on whether to cancel it or not.

Thank you all in advance :)

it is "possible" more if you did pay the express shipping, I "got" mine in 3 days from china, having 1 weekend day w/o activity, I did order mine on the 22th, shipped on the 5th an delivered 2 days ago (8th). If yours follow the same pattern on shipping, hopefully will be delivered in the next few days

I honestly think you can just get one from an Apple Store before you leave and cancel the order before it even ships.

The space gray really isn't that hard to come by right now.

I was going to say the same thing...call around to apple and t mobile stores, get one, and cancel your pending order.

if it hasn't shipped yet; you won't have it by then

i talked to a customer who's iphone shipped yesterday, and they will receive it on the 17th. you need to cancel your order

1-800-676-2775 is sales support's number

I would say it's very likely will arrive before you leave, but canceling the order and getting one from an Apple store is a safer bet and a guaranteed thing.
