How to order iphones!! ;)

1. Always use private browser and reopen between every 10 new phones.
2. every 10 create a  new Apple account. (you can do +1, +2 etc. like you do for Banana republic welcome offers!)
3. every 10 Phones use a new CC
4. Shipping you can use random name and phone #
5. Billing you can misspell your Name and change the address.  Zip code must be accurate.
6.If you have a citi cc you can make a virtual card #

Many people have reported cancellations on the iPhone 6+ even after following the above. Some say it's due to the shortage of the 6+ therefor apple is very strict.
Try being creative when buying the 6+ 

7. I take no responsibility for cancelled orders these are just a few tips that will lower the chance of cancelled orders.

Can I reuse my chargers from my 4S on the 6 by just changing the cable? (Lightning?)

For chargers and cables make sure it's MFI certified, don't bother with the cheap generic stuff on eBay.
I usually get Belkin or Griffin for the car. At home I try using Apple ones, if not that then the same as for car.

For cases it really depends what you're getting the case for, rugged protection or just so it doesn't scratch when you put it down on the table.
What do u say to this? how can I know if its MFI certified?

I can't speak for the MFI certification, but you can trust Belkin.

The problem with Ebay, is that any of these accessory companies (Belkin, OtterBox, etc) are liable to have lots of fakes. Those companies protect their brands on Amazon, but it is a lot tougher for them to do that on Ebay. The seller him/herself may not even know they are selling fakes.

maybe if sold by amazon but be careful if its fulfilled by amazon or just a random seller on amazon

You shouldn't be worried about "fake". Most are real cables, of shoddy quality. They'll need to be replaced very quickly.
MFI certified means that the cables live up to Apple standard of quality (and that Apple took a cut).

Sprint is tough. You'd be fine with any other provider. I think you have to find a way to get it unlocked. Once it's unlocked you should be ok.

If you end up switching send me a PM. You can get 1 year of unlimited LTE data for free for being referred. Referrer and referee get the unlimited data. You can get referred up to 30 days after switching. It's really easy.

I'm finally switching from the 4s to the 6. I asked ATT to unlock the 4s (they won't do the new 6) and she said I'll be getting an email. My question is how do I verify that it's unlocked without getting a sim and going to Israel (though I'd love to!)

I don't think that's correct, even if you get it unlocked, it will just be good for international use. It's nearly impossible to get it fully unlocked.

i bought an iphone 6 via apple's website. it shipped and UPS shows it delivered. signed by someone that isn't the addressee and shows delivered in a different city as the shipping address.

i called apple and said i didn't get it. they issued me a refund (has yet to show up on my AMEX- too early). question- what happens to the phone that was shipped? is there any way of apple shutting it down somehow? kill the ESN or something?

Yes and yes. They can brick the device and they can kill the ESN.

you mean break? and are you being sarcastic? i suspect not but just to be sure... and all remotely- obviously.

also is that only done if i ask them to or is it done automatically. see- technically the phone did get to the correct party. i want to know if i can get a free iphone in the process (please take all arguments to the ethics thread)...

Brick means when they turn your phone into something as useful as a brick, AKA useless.
Don't know exactly what you're asking, but I won't help you steal if that's what you're trying to do.
