It might be a software issue. If that's the case, halting sales would buy them time to control the number of people experiencing it until they can release a patch next week.

Better to only have a few currently experiencing it, rather than hundreds more, making noise as you try to fix it.
 
Sucks .. want to exchange my pro max 128gb for a 256gb . messed up on getting that memory size . Keep seeing pro models pop up but no pro max .
This was me! I ordered 256GB, but afterwards decided I wanted 512GB. I waited too long (not even a day on the weekend) to make the jump and my "only" option was to go 1TB. 🤦‍♀️ It is definitely overkill and I feel ridiculous, but I got more space. 😂

I dont think thats it.. this is typical on any launch... gold is available daily here.. software can be updated remotely...
 
It's caused by the forum members who ordered new 14PMs and then decided they don't want them, which has resulted in those phones sitting on Apple shelves as used phones which can't be sold as new.
Exactly. First they one from stock, then another with the exchange. They should just sell them again if it was just buyer's remorse within a short time in the beginning. I don't care if it was already open.

This is definitely annoying. Haven’t seen stock all week in the tri-state area.
Yes. Even with searching further in each direction from the Lehigh Valley. Saw a Max right in the beginning near Batimore but nada since. Wish they would just let you up the search radius

I bought mine over the weekend for pickup at Lehigh! It was on the way home from the RV show in Hershey. The stock by where I live was gone by the time I made the decision to buy so I grabbed a 1TB (I wanted 512GB but waited too long) at Lehigh.

This theory does not make much sense as the shipping estimates are for the end of October. It took them a year to create a defected phone, but less than a month to fix the severe issues and ramp up inventory for all? I find that hard to grasp.
This was the same when the iPhone 13PM was released. I remember it well. After initial pre orders F all was available thru to October. 👌🏼
 
Those who live in Illinois this place showed up in stock for the 14 pro max
