In case you don’t know that today started already at 12:01am PST (Pacific Standard Time) the iPhone X opened for pre-orders. The estimated delivery date before it opened for the pre-orders was 11/3/2017 which is next Friday. However, soon after the pre-order started, the ship date slipped quickly to 5–6 weeks. Some even reported that their iPhone X orders will be shipped after mid-December … and possibly after X’mas… oh, man … it’s not even going to be able to be wrapped as a X’mas gift. That’s sad.

Frustrations Expressed on Twitter

Some of the tweets expressing the frustrations of pre-ordering the iPhone X this morning. You can search for others simply go to twitter.com and type “#iphonex” on the search field.

Ship Date Slipped — Hurry Up, You might still get it

If you order it now, the estimated ship date for the iPhone X from Apple Store, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, and Verizon,

Apple Store
Ship Date: 5–6 weeks which is in the early or mid December

AT&T
Ship Date: Ships between Dec 4, 2017 — Dec 18, 2017.

T-Mobile
Ships 11/03/17–11/10/17

Sprint
Ships by 11/3

Verizon
Delivery by 12/1/2017

It looks like your best bet is Sprint if you don’t care about which carrier you are going to be with. It still shows all the iPhone X models will be shipped by 11/3/2017 which is next Friday. Hence, if you really itchy of getting your hands on the iPhone X by next Friday, get on Sprint and order one.

Insane Price (over 200% premium) on eBay

The price on the iPhone X is insane if you try to snap one on eBay. You aren’t going to be able to get one under $16,000 USD. The price of those listed iPhone X(s) are over $2,000 to $3,000 USD… it’s going to be go even higher with the ship date getting pushed back by all the major carriers in the U.S.

We guess that there are demands for those super insanely pricey iPhone X(s) on eBay. Well… if you have money and you really love to put your hands on… it’s your money… and you can make the call… however, … over 3K … wow… that’s really heavy …
