What a shambles.

Mac mini - nothing.
iPhone - nothing.
MacBook - nothing.
Have to actually install the Apple Store app on my old iPad - bam, it's there straight away.

Order has just gone through, supposedly for 16th delivery (7, black, 128). Let's see if that actually happens...
 
So it took bloody ages for me to get in. Same as last year and 7 plus 128gb jet black delivers 4-10oct. Sucks - looks like I'll be scouring he reservation pages

128GB Black iPhone 7 Plus 6-8 Business Days for me, delivery something like late September, it'll do..

Also ordered Apple Watch, which will be here on release day apparently!
 
4 Oct - 10 Oct for the 7 Plus 128GB Jet Black
26 Sep - 28 Sep for the Apple Watch Series 2
 
first non launch day iPhone in over 4 years! looks like there were no jet black phones available for 16th?!

mine shows 4-10 oct!

gives me some time to take in the real reviews and decide if the scratchy black is worth it

Does anyone have a dispatch time isn't 6-8 business days or more? Ideally with a screen grab for proof... It looks like they are just giving most people 6-8 just in case. Even if it dispatches in 6 days, that is next Thursday so should be with you the following day.
 
Got my email confirmation at 08:03, Jet black 128gb, Apple Store app was slow off the mark, got an estimated shipping date of 26th/Sept-3rd/Oct, however considering how early I've ordered I have a feeling it could move forward.

For me the Web store came up at 08:11.... I ordered on the iOS App at 08:02.... all delivery times for Black 'Plus' iPhones were longer than the expected 16th Sept.

All blacks were October deliver at like 8:07 onwards so I went for silver for launch day instead.....had to cos already locked my phone in for £300 trade in and i need to send within 14 days.....they have already dropped to £250 so don't wanna lose out by waiting :-(
 
Finally ordered, arriving October, but I'll be on holiday from next week onwards for two weeks, so it's not bad :)
 
I seem to be able to preorder but pickup in store isn't available. I want to join the upgrade programme so need to do pickup in store.

Any ideas?
 
Oh man - initially said 26th Sept when i got on at 08:04, item was already pre selected last night and placed in favourites, by the time i checked out on the  store app, it's shifted to 4th - 10th Oct ---- SHAMBLES.
 
Finally got in and no Black or Jet black available to reserve for in store pickup anywhere within 200 miles of me :(
 
Finally managed to order one at 8.09. App store on both phone and computer just wasn't working. Delivery 27-29th September for my 128GB black iPhone 7 Plus. Last years launch was so, so much smoother. Already a 2-3 week dispatch time for the both black plus models.

Kind of ridiculous, really
 
Has literally anyone been able to buy on the apple finance plan? Seems the link was down from the start?
 
Real east, Apple store app was opened, at about 3:07am Baltimore, MD time I got in, completed iphone 7 256gb AT&T flat black into bag, Sept 23-27, no instore pickup option that I was hoping, so thrn hit black Apple pay button and, 3:08am transaction complete.
