Just Got £420 for mine on eBay. 6 Plus 64Gb gold
Maybe it's gone down since they merged with PC world and Currys. i agree about the staff not being that knowledgeable. They tried to tell some guy that the Huawei P9 had the best camera on the market yesterday so....
I sold my iPhone 6s 64GB unlocked iPhone to Envirophone last week for £414.86. I was a little worried as there was a nick and a couple of scratches on the back, but they paid full price. Will be using them again next year
Just left Apple Brent Cross. I had a reservation for 7+ 128 gold with the off chance I could swap for black matte (didn't happen) so I let it go.
Had a play around with the ones on display. For those of you after the Jet black good luck. They had two on display they had more scratches on them then I'd I've ever seen on an iphone and it's only been on display for 2 days????
Matte was flawless and even the pink didn't look bad. The jet black reminded me a lot of the 3GS.
The new home button was a lot better then I anticipated and reacts faster then the ones in the older models.
The guys at the store said they didn't get stock on the weekend and that everything that has been going into the reserve system is effectually what people cancelled since Friday.
They said fresh stock should be monday night ready for 6am Tuesday

I've had a launch day iPhone every year since 2008. This is the first year I've not managed to get one due to ordering a Black Plus...am I bothered? A bit...will I get over it? Yeh...would I call it a shambles? Definitely not.

How did you get that much?? I got an offer of £352 on 6th September....haven't sent it in yet though as I'm deciding whether to keep the 6s or 7
I have one if you don't mind having to replace the battery, as it's quite old now.
Just been chatting with Carphone warehouse they should be getting some iPhone 7 Plus stock this week
Apple online store orders that are delivered to you, are on a completely different system to retail stores. U cannot make changes to an online order while in a store, in fact you cannot even return it in store .
Not sure how the online order picked up in store works..

Once u get an iPhone from anywhere in the U.K., u can just deal with Apple, at least in the first year. And u can add apple care too

I'll be selling a 6s 64GB Gold, and a 6S+ 64GB Rose Gold in the coming two weeks.
Settled on a standard rose gold 7 128gb

Indeed! Sold my plus on the same day I posted on eBay
I set up the purchase on their website on the 25th August. This was before the prices dropped due to the iPhone 7 announcement.
Then on the 3rd September, they emailed me and extended the offer by an additional 7 days.
I then came across a code on this forum for an additional 5% to be added onto the price, so I emailed Envirophone and they added this on to my quote. I sent the phone special delivery Monday 5th September and the full £414.86 was in my account 2 days later.
It really does depend if you get a 'good' or 'bad' Genius Bar, or Apple Store in general. It depends also on the temperament of the manager. My local is pretty decent and I've always managed to get devices replaced under warranty. They gave me over £700 of free repairs to my MacBook when the GPU replacement program came up for the rMBP. I've had some bad experiences with the general floor staff in there but that's because they tend to mostly be students doing seasonal work and don't really know what they're talking about.
My sister has a 128gb 6 she's about to sell to Game in excellent condition. Message if interested
That's a decent price. I just bought a brand new 6s 64gb off a mate for £300 for the Mrs. Granted it was a free upgrade from 3 that he didn't want
Yeah it's such a mixed bag in my experience. Though Touchwood, Solihull is by far and away the worst Apple Store I've ever experienced. Several Genius visits over several years all went badly.
Meanwhile the London stores are great and Highcross follows closely behind in my experience.
I've got the same but when I looked into it, the phones comes via Shanghai Pudong Airport, they don't fly until 02:30 (local time) on Monday so not until late Sunday evening in the U.K., even then they fly into Liege, Belgium, then from there they either fly TNT or ASL into either Stanstead or East Midlands Airport, I'd say they'll arrive Tuesday at the very earliest.
Two days of non-stop store demo usage is hardly comparable to everyday use.
