So I was bored this evening and decided to go down the the local Best Buy and see if there were any early specials on Xbox games, and I walked past the iPhone X display and was just looking at it. A sales person came up and asked if I had any questions, so just for fun I asked her what the backlog was on the X.

She said they had them in stock. Both colors and both sizes.

I thought about it for maybe a half and hour, and then decided to get it.

It surprised me that they actually had them in stock for walk-ins, and at 6:30pm on a Saturday evening, whereas Apple still has a 2-3 weeks wait.

So if anyone is looking for one, just check out BestBuy. Maybe you'll get lucky also.

It would be beneficial to probably post the city and state, too. Glad you were able to purchase one.
Thanks for sharing...
 
I think everywhere is different. But since launch date I notice it really isn’t that difficult getting your hands on one. If you look around different places. You can easily get a hold of one. It doesn’t seem as popular, at least down here. Stock seems readily available throughout the week. And talking with some of the employees, they experienced quite a few returns from ppl not really happy with the device.
 
I placed an order on BestBuy.com for SG 256 Verizon on Thursday at noon and received "Ready for pickup" text one hour later. I was quite surprised since the website showed an ESD of 11/30/17. This was at the South Philadelphia BestBuy location.

I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. Couldn't be happier. Love the X.
 
same delivery date for my best buy, dayton ohio. 30 November

did you pay the 100.00 premium they now have, assuming you paid in full--

i won't pay that
