iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

Sal09 said:
I think i was incorrect in saying that they never opened 7+ reservation. Actually the stock levels were pretty low and they got reserved very quickly.

Looking at the links provided by fellow member Razor there were hardly any stock made available in Black and Jet Black for 128 GB above for IP7+ in Sheffield and Leeds.

Its interesting that the demand for the plus is so high as when the 6 and 6 plus were released, many people thought that the plus was too big unless Apple have got its analytics wrong and only produced the Plus in very small numbers
 
I'm not expecting to see our 7+ Blacks until early next month if the order confirmation is anything to go by. We ordered about 08:12 on release day but have since ordered through our Apple Business Team at our local store who have also placed an order for us in the hope of getting them quicker.
 
From what O2 have been saying, order will stay "in progress" until it dispatches and to keep a check on emails for updates.
 
Just been chatting with carphone warehouse and Black iPhone 7 Plus 128GB will be dispatched and October 7th to 256GB and they also said that Jet black iPhone 7 Plus 128GB will be October 17th, hope you all find this useful :)
 
KRCS are still hinting at launch day stock. Not sure how seriously to take it but it may be worth a gander if you have a store near.

Mine just changed to 20-22 a minute ago. And I didn't change the delivery address.
 
PROPER PISSED OFF.

SO I sent my phone to MobileCashMate - they were offering the best price £340 for my 6+ unlocked 128Gb.
They now tell me that it's not cosmetically perfect (true - it's used) and that they are now offering £288 because of a 'small scratch' on the screen.

I called them and they said it's any mark gets listed as B grade and that is the B grade price.

Ladies and gents - is it still worth just letting them have it and getting the money or shall I faff with eBay, With the paypal fees/ebay fees would I get much more?

So those of us on a 20-22 September should start seeing our phones appear in our support profiles and move to preparing for dispatch anytime now?

That is possible, Apple may decide to send out phones direct from China like they have done in previous years to speed things up. And if they do shipping will take a couple of days.

I stuck mine on ebay for £450 and said collection only, no offers and sold it the same night and the guy picked it up the next day. Ebay fees were 10%. Paypal fees 3.4% I think so I walked away with over £390. Prices may drop now as the 7 is on the street tomorrow
 
Can anyone explain what they mean by 6-8 days I have two orders one due on 20-22 and another 27-29. 6-8 day from what??????????

This is why I binned off mobilecashmate, knew I wouldn't get anywhere near what they quoted

I went with Mazuma as they guarantee as long as it's working, all buttons work, basic functionality works and the screen isn't smashed, you get what you are quoted. They don't take anything off for marks or wear and tear

I had a similar experience with them before - got my phone back and traded in with someone else and even got a higher price. They made stuff up to reduce the value of my phone.

eBay take 10% of the final price including postage. You also have the hassle of packaging it up and sending it off.

I locked in my 6 128gb at £275.10 (using a 5% extra code) with Envirofone when the 7 was announced.

You're getting more than Envirofone would offer you at the moment.
