Ordered my Fold from a T-Mobile store on September 7, showing shipping dates from September 9 through September 15. The very next day I see my shipping date was pushed back to September 28 to October 4 or something close to that. I just checked again and now it's shipping October 27 to November 17.
Wtf?
Is it just T-Mobile getting pushed backed like this or is it every carrier?
 
In the UK the lead time for the Fold ³ is the 24th of September direct from Samsung.

Definitely looking like a supply issue
 
I got lucky with ATT, ordered 512gb Phantom Black online on August 29th and got it on September 4th :D
 
I'm almost on the verge of canceling. There's no way the order date of 5 days jumps in 5 days to an order date of 2 months away. I'm going to start calling around to try to find one in stock. The store I ordered from said I was the first one to ever order a Fold from them too.

I'm in the US, ordered on Sept 3, original date was Sept 14, now Sept 21 and I am not hopeful it will stay there. I have a feeling it will move again, but I am not going to cancel my order due tot he discounts and promotions. I cannot get it cheaper anywhere else. :(
 
Samsung has a serious supply issue. When I offered my S21 it took months to get it. Had the order cancelled twice because of supply issues and the customer service experience was probably the worst. Finally got it almost 4 months after I initially ordered. But they didn't have the color or memory size I really wanted and said they would not be producing more. I now have a Fold 3 so I have what I wanted. I guess I was lucky to get mine. Its unlocked and exactly what I wanted this time. I was very anxious it sound be another debacle like the S21 ultra. Its line Samsung comes out with new devices and is surprised that people actually want them. Line McDonald's open for breakfast but doesn't have eggs cooked. And, like I said, the customer service is the WORST!
