Confirming my preorder through the app was so fast I initially thought I got kicked back to the upgrade program page. My wife delivers our second baby girl on the 1st and Apple delivers the X on the 3rd. Pretty solid week!

Well, Spanish store opened for me at 9:03 and got shipping delivery on Nov 3 on 256GB. Yay.
 
Anyone have any luck with Sprint? Haven't been able to get a finalized order through Apple or Sprint. Just spins when it's trying to connect with Sprint's servers.
 
I don't think T-Mobile models were available on launch. I was in at 12:02 and T-Mobile was already at Nov 10-17 (I'm on the IUP). I went back in after wrapping things up, chose Verizon, and it was available on the 3rd at 7-8 local stores for pickup and/or delivery.

Apple showed 2-3 weeks on my order, but did another order through ATT and shows launch day delivery. Cancelling order through Apple

3 weeks delivery in UK. What a scam. I ent through my apple account over two weeks ago and updated everything, checked again a few days ago. And when I came to check out, it was old information. I got on straight away and three weeks.

What a joke

I found the upgrade element slowed me down
Got stuck in a loop booking an appointment so had to back out
looking at 3 Dec now at Manc' Trafford Store
 
My credit card was charged but the order isn't showing up in my bag? Is this due to server load?

Sucks. I got into mobile safari before Apple store app on my old iPhone 8 plus. And because I didn’t setup Apple Pay yet on my 8’plus. I had to relog back into my Apple store account from mobile safari. That 10 seconds cost me big time. I had November 3rd when i added it to Cart. By the time I signed in mobile safari. It switched to 2-3 weeks shipping 17-24 November.

And I didn’t get into Apple store app till 316am. The mobile safari I got in at 313am

Incredible. I think I'll be satisfied with that considering all the rumors of supplies since keynote announcement.

Nah those were fake news........Took me 20 mins to complete my order and i got the same shipping date..
 
Pre-ordered my iPhone X 256gb Space Gray at 12:03am right away. Paid with Apple Pay. Standard shipping with delivery of November 10-17. T-Mobile had no pickup available at all.

I got two orders in for Nov 24 I am cancelling both in the morning probably
 
Got it. iPhone X, 256, Silver, Nov. 3 confirmed. Apple Store App on iPad came up for me at about 9:05:15 am. Rushed through from favourites to confirming address etc. Finished order process at about 9:06. Right after that I checked on both 256 models: delivery had already slipped to 2-3 weeks.

So it didn't even take 6 minutes until the first batch was sold out (in Germany). At 9:21 all models still available for 2-3 weeks delivery, at 9:30 am: delivery estimate 4-5 weeks for all models.
 
Darn... I only got 8 of them! It was so upsetting waiting for the emails... All 11/03/17 delivery.

No I did not bot, those diablo 2 day mouse clicking skills are paying off. Got to click on those items fast!

Wow, that was a horrible shopping experience! Crazy.. Apple store down till 12:12, AT&T store errors ALL NIGHT LONG, and the apple reservation number because it couldn't connect with AT&T so it gives me the reservation number.. Finally got one thru AT&T with a Nov 3rd shipping date, but.... We'll see. I hope so, that was too much!!!

The App had some sort of problem with my credit card, so I had to switch to the webpage for using PayPal.
When the webpage came life, delivery had already slipped to 2-3 weeks.

A bit later Media Markt pre-orders came life and I've ordered one for launch day pickup.

So it's either going to be launch or 2-3 weeks later.
Media Markt hasn't been very trustworthy with pre-orders in the past, so I guess it's going to be November 21st to 28th for me :(
