How were you able to reserve one this late at night?
 
I have no idea...literally refreshed and BOOM two stores had stock at 9pm. I honestly didn't expect it to work seeing as how apples order page crashed 5 times on me today alone :)

After 8 the reserve page closes but you can still go to the main page and choose the pick up option instead of ship it. I find stock will update usually around 11

Ohhh I did not know about that! THANK YOU!! If I do this, can I still get the carrier phone instead of the full-priced one? Because I've done it through reservation with my 6P but not sure if it's possible with pickup
 
you know you have to post some pics now, right?


lol and my phone was delayed (customs for like 3 days) will get it monday apparently

Haha I am at Apple Store getting a belkin glass screen for my new toy. They weren't pretty amazed I got one shipped so early since my date was October 5-12.

My phone sat in customs for an entire day at Ontario California too.

How are you planning on getting the back scratch proof? Case? Skin? or Keep the original packaging on? :D

my phone came today! by way of ups to edmonton then purolator from there to whitehorse. no wonder I didn't have any notifications for a few days! so great to have my phone. It's worth the wait to get it. Good luck to all those still waiting! ups is meh and my purolator guy just left it on my door no signature. Good thing I was watching out for it. Don't want to lose $1237 due to not paying attention. wow! great phone

First owner of an iPhone 7/7 Plus in Yukon?!
 
Anybody having any luck with the 7+ ordered with Telus :( mine hasn't even shipped yet

When I called the Telus store in my area they said they aren't expecting the plus for 6 weeks. My preorder from the Apple sitewas stuck in processing... Luckily I ended up reserving it from Apple. On the Apple site the wait time for a black iPhone 7+ went up to 3-4 weeks so it does seem like demand is outweighing supply.

I am not sure about that. I simply bought it outright and will be picking it up at the Apple store today

My JB 128GB still isn't shipped yet so I'm trying my luck everytime on the reservation site.

Picked it up and it is a huge upgrade over my note 4. A bit of a pain going from android to iOS but I have most of it set up and running. The camera is solid. Overall a great looking phone. Again I don't think I will be able to fully appreciate it until I am 100% comfortable with it. Good luck getting yours

Glad to know! :)

Were you able to get it for the carrier or did you have to pay the phone in full price when you picked it up?
 
Not much action on this thread as of late... does that mean everyone got their phones?

I'm still waiting.

XX:06 128 GB Jet Black Plus - Delivery Oct 6-13 - still "Processing"

This is getting ridiculous.

I'm still waiting too. Ordered a 128GB Rose Gold 7+ on release day (4:36 pm PDT), and I've been stuck in order processing since then. I'm in the October 5-12 group. Sucks that I don't have an Apple store close by so I could reserve and pick up. Seems lots of people have had luck going that route.

Still waiting too.

XX:15 128 JB Plus - Oct 5-12 - Still processing (Ottawa)

I've seen the matte black available for reserve a few times on the store reservation site but I actually like the JB more.
