I might try Washington Square tomorrow. I work about two blocks away. Pioneer Place was busy this morning, but a few blocks from where I live.
Good advice if they have any. I did this Monday and Tuesday and both days the stores said they had none.
how was today? Did many people wait in the line?
So they do not have shipment everyday?
Ill be there for the 4th time this week trying to get my hands on an 64g wifi in black to replace the one i had to return. ugggh. its the only one that hasnt been in their shipment.
I drove by there on Thursday morning at 9 am, there were around 100 people in line. How early are people getting there? How many Ipad 2s do they usually get in?
Just called the 5th ave NY store, they said theres a huge line since 10PM and there was no chance of getting one. Anyone know about the other stores, 14th? Soho? 67th? I'm going from Brooklyn now and I don't want to go for no reason.
Came to GSP one hour ago. The line is the longest all week. I am number 50 but I know they had at least 60 iPads on Wednesday. So I wait.
What time are they opening?
I finally got my replacement ipad, but almost didn't.
I came to towson, md apple store, waited in line, and they ran out 3 people ahead of me, i was very frustrated because I was trying to get a replacement for the one I bought launch day. I was willing to cave and get the 32 instead of 64 since they only 16 & 32 in.
I almost cried, I'd been in line EVERYDAY with no luck. I was about to leave and the lady infront of me had heard my story and she said maybe I should talk to a manager because I just needed a replacement and that its silly that I should have to wait like this.
Im normally too shy to such things, but honestly i am exhausted from being at the apple store at 730 am everyday this week. So i walked back up to the store and talked to the lady running things. I told her I'd been here everyday, that I just needed a replacement for my damaged unit bought on launch day, and she knew id been there everyday, and she talked to anther employee and he went in back and came back with 64 gig black wifi. He said the plastic was partially opened and asked if that was okay, and i said it was fine, and he gave it to me. He said it was the last replacement unit they had sitting back there, and didnt understand why no one had given it to me previously. But I said its fine and thanked him for doing me the favor.
NOW I CAN SLEEP. WOoHOO~!!
If I were you I'd stay home. I tried yesterday before dawn at the least popular stores, W14 & UWS and there were huuuge lines since 5am. Scalpers have taken over. I've given up. I really hope you are successful if you decide to give it a try.
Went to GSP in Paramus, NJ this morning. Was third in line when the same employee from yesterday who told us about iPads, said there was no shipment today. Everyone left.
Will call at 3-5PM to ask if shipments came.
Anyone think they should go to a 1 per person or Credit Card Only in order to spread inventory to more people and cut out the resellers? (I got mine yesterday after 3 days of going in early but 90% of the line were resellers)
It just seems at this point a lot of good hard working Apple fans are getting rejected while a majority of the "lucky" ones are cash wielding immigrants being exploited in order to supply the grey market. (I say "exploited" because my Chinese speaking friend spoke with a few and they got $50 per iPad but they resell for a whole lot more)
