I still dont understand what happens after this weekend if the point of the large shipments was to get rid of the priority lists.
Walked in yesterday to South Coast Plaza Apple. 25 mins later picked up a black iphone 32gb, no preorder! I recommend calling around if your eager!!!
Seems as though every apple store in my remote area (under one hour) is getting shipments EXCEPT for the one i got on the list at.
Just called the SCP store, and they told me that they are no longer adding people to the priority list and starting monday they will be sold on a first come first serve basis. I was hoping to get in on the list today :\ oh well, I guess I need to take my chances in person now. Kinda disappointing.
Put my name on a list yesterday at 4pm... got my email to pick up at 10am this morning.
Funny. What store?? Those are literally the exact same times as me. The rumors about wiping the Priority Lists MUST have been true in some cases. There must have been some big shipments, because the Short Pump Store (for me) is really the only place around really, so basically the entire richmond market (which may not be huge) probably goes to that store. It is always PACKED when i go...
Put my name on a list yesterday at 4pm... got my email to pick up at 10am this morning.
I went to the apple store yeterday at 4:42 to reserve my iPhone and i just got the email today at 10:30 telling me to pick it up. 16GB. Am I just super lucky, or is there any credence to the rumor about wiping the priority lists? I was put on at Short Pump Town Center.
So after driving home, writing my last post, and driving to help a friend move their couch I got my email. About 2 hours after being at the Apple store and getting turned down.
I'm super happy, but pretty irritated to have to drive out there again. Blurgh.
Put my name on the list at Short Pump Town Center for two 32gig iPhones on 7/17.
Received the pick-up e-mail today at 10:30AM and had my iPhones by 1PM. Total wait = 7 days.
How long did you have to wait to get them activated and stuff?? That is where i am going later to get them set up
