iPhone 5 - King of Prussia, PA

njn007 · Sep 17, 2012, 11:41 AM

Hello all,

Just throwing the idea around if anyone would like to meet up outside of the KoP mall for Friday. I preordered through the Apple Store App but not soon enough- my expected delivery date is 10/5. I am considering cancelling this order and camping out instead. Anyone else interested at all?

ashmarie73 · Sep 18, 2012, 08:26 PM

I'm trying to plan this out as well.... Wonder what time people are gonna start lining up... I'm thinkin of scoping out the scene Thursday night and then heading over between 3-5 am-ish

Wish I could join ya but this year I opted to get it shipped to my house (I live in the suburbs of Reading). Normally I come to KOP to get mine. I'd get there hella early if you wanna camp out...

I'll be arriving back to my home (at college normally) around 2pm Thursday. I am extremely considering going out starting Thursday night (and doing an all-nighter). If you do scope it out before I get there (if I decide to go), please let me know how it looks.

Thanks!

im planning on going today (thursday) after my pup gets done at the groomers, hopefully around 3ish...

got the reminder already set - so i dont forget to update you guys!

Ordered online this year

Have fun everybody!

Quick question for those in the KoP area: do you know if AT&T LTE makes it that far outside the city? Guess I'll find out tomorrow, just curious.

At the store now info I've been given is:
Once the mall closes tonight at 9 the line is to start forming outside of the Rite Aid entrance. Apple employees will start escorting people in groups of 10 to form the line inside beginning at 6am. Limit 2 iPhones per person, must be the account holder or authorize user on the account.

Currently no line inside the mall.

solostars · Sep 20, 2012, 08:43 PM

So, it's outside, not in. Ok. Cool. Thanks, guys!

My husband is going to leave pretty soon.

The line is currently being formed across from Victoria's Secret (there's a large black wall) and there are about 5 people in line as of now (9:47 pm)

solostars · Sep 20, 2012, 08:56 PM

And I'm the one in the Yankees shirt and camo pants haha!

ENTER next to the RITE AID. The line is inside as previously stated.

ashmarie73 · Sep 21, 2012, 01:47 AM

What's the line looking like right now?

njn007 · 02:31 AM

About 30 or so inside. I heard a security guard mention there were people lined up outside of Citizens Bank (court and plaza connection area). Enter through Rite Aid for sure that is the only door open! (And come say hello!)

pfinley215 · Sep 21, 2012, 02:36 AM

Only about 30 or so inside. Come on down and make sure to enter by RITE AID. They will likely have enough for sure.

Zethca · Sep 21, 2012, 08:53 AM

Sounds like KoP is probably stocked for walk-ins today. Seems like a lot of people ordered online this year. Any updates?

jsfpa · Sep 21, 2012, 06:55 PM

So did they sell out? If so what time?
