Once FedEx gives you the tracking number, you can call them and ask them to hold the package. They are usually open into the early evening, swing by and pick it up after work.
Or reserve one for each of them in their respective names, and go to the store after work to pick them up.

That last sentence was funny. You are right, fedex will even let you reroute to another location and should be same day if you go to the website right when you have the tracking info.
And that's one of the reasons why they feel that they can do that. If at the end of the day you're still spending money and plan to continue to, there's no need for them to do anything than what they please.
Or Apple could just let a bunch of scalpers buy up all the stock and then sell them for double?
Apologies is this has changed but I thought they said you can still pickup in store?
Everyone's on top form today.
I think Apple enjoys all the publicity and Samsung is pulling their hair out saying "why isn't anyone talking about our product"
This is correct, at least at the moment they have clearly stated you can pick up at your store of choice with the preorder.
I don't get it.

On the contrary, plenty of talking going on about the Galaxy S6 over on other Android forums. It's quite the hot topic over the last month or so. They're doing just fine, I wouldn't worry.
I was talking about the press releases today. Samsung is releasing their new phone Friday and nobody other than Samsung fans care. It's all over the news and press. Apple just seems to dominate the news however they can. I'm definitely not worried. It's funny.

Ahhhh. I've never been asked when I received my new phones.
You know what would be fun is even though we have no intention of ever getting a Samsung, is to go sign up over at their forum and then bash everyone for buying it. Oh wait, that would just make us trolls.
How many retail employees do you know that could drop $500+ whenever they wanted to?
Samsung fans and all the tech sites covering the S6, you mean. It's getting a fair bit of ink, all things considered. There's reviews, unboxing videos, early impressions. Standard product release fare.
Well yeah, Apple products do tend to dominate the news near release time. This is not a new phenomenon. I am kind of curious why you decided to steer the conversation in Samsung's direction though.
Exactly.I can't do that... it's too bush league to go to another website and mock someone who likes a product. I will stay away. You can usually tell of a troll here if they start defending Samsung and bashing you.
Which is why Apple will sell them the stainless steel for as low as $275. However, if they could get the Edition for $5,000 you know for sure someone would buy one to sell later.
Does it bother you? If so, my apologies about this topic of Apple Press releases including reservations may hurt samsung.
