Why is my iPhone 6 Plus order taking so long?

My boyfriend ordered his on the same day after I did, but his was from T-Mobile and mine was from the Apple Store. Apple says they fill out orders in the order they came, yet his is already shipping and I have to wait till the 22nd. That's so bull. Is there a reason for this? The other day, he called T-Mobile and asked when his order would come and they said they didn't know because they still hadn't received their stock from apple. If I ordered mine before him and apple carriers out orders in order, why are they sending their phones to T-Mobile before they send me my phone?

Probably back ordered because of high demand
