To those not making launch day delivery, I recommend to check the website every morning and around lunch time (I am not kidding), the last time the Apple Store in Berlin occasionally showed more for launch day pick up throughout the pre-order week
Pre-orders are easy to cancel. Once the madness of people trying to place new orders settles down, you'll have a one-click cancel button in your Apple Store account.
Extremely frustrated. Had to wake up before 5:00am, site wasn’t accessible until 5 minutes after, my session initially timed out, site was down again, then it kept erring out at every step over and over and over. My 9/22 pre-order turned in to Oct. 9-16! 
Easiest pre-order ever. Store opened at 7:02am Austin time. Took maybe 1 min to place a saved pre-order w/ trade-in.
Did you receive the confirmation email with an order number? The order look up page seems to be down atm (happens on every launch haha)
Except their sales numbers back up their demand report.
Finally reserved my upgrade via the browser at 13:25... Pro Max 256 Blue Titanium for collection 22/09
Absolutely terrible experience.

Just pre-ordered from AT&T as an upgrade from my trusty but failing iPhone 7 plus I bought new in 2016.
My iPhone 7 has been getting slower and slower to the point it almost doesn't register touch. I kept telling myself to wait till it dies completely but I don't think I can wait any longer.
Do you think I will notice any difference? Oh, I got Blue Pro 256gb.

Only an authorization for the amount. They charge when preparing to ship.
With somewhat of a miracle, the order went through at 8:02am EST 😅 but then it disappeared on the Apple Store app. Just found it via their website.
Reading through some of these threads, seems some have had their orders disappear and then the availability dates change. Here’s hoping the pickup date stays on the 22nd 🤞🏼
Happy (heart racing) pre-order day! Best of luck!! 🙏📱

Finally. Pre-order wouldn’t show, even when using the link in the confirmation email so I had to go through the process close to 10 times I’d guess before the order ‘stuck’. Still was able to get a 1T Blue no carrier through the US App Store with 9/22 delivery.
I was within a couple of minutes of calling it quits and skipping this year. Did that one other year when their order system frustrates me to no end. Turns out they got my money again this time.

iPhone Upgrade Program craps the bed once again this year. I spent half hour trying to proceed with my IUP reservation that I started BEFORE today. I got tired of it. I ordered from my carrier instead with an $800 trade in.
Apple really blew it with IUP. They can never have the service work smoothly on launch morning, and it always seems more difficult and bigger hassle for IUP users rather than normal customers. So what’s the point of being an IUP member then? Be forced to pay for AppleCare+ and get horrible service on launch day that inevitably delays your delivery date. Then when next year rolls around you have to pay an extra month in order to get your upgrade on launch day, since the delays and trouble checking out this year delayed your delivery for 3 weeks.
Tired of it. Apples most premium and loyal customers choosing to upgrade yearly directly with Apple get the absolute worst deal out of all iPhone customers.

Nothing yet! As soon as the order was complete I tried getting back on the website and it crashed.
