They aren't the same stock. I have a feeling 6am stock may be new delivery for the day, and the ones that go up at 10pm is stock not collected which was reserved online.
Unsure how accurate that is but something along those lines.
Got a tip for us?

Keep me an eye out on gumtree in a month or 2. Will be some good bargains out thereNothing I can do. I do not have £700 I can spend all at once on a phone.
I guess this is where I bow out guys. Love you all, enjoy your 7s.
Yep I see 256Gb Black 7+ available in Plymouth, Exeter, Cardiff and Bristol, they must have gotten stock of the 256Gb today
We don't know the exact terms Barclays are working to. But they clearly have a set idea of who is and isn't eligible.
Right. I'm gonna call it a day for me on this thread. I really wish you all the best with your phones and I'll see you around MacRumors!
There's not much left to say re Barclays and IUP. You'll either be accepted or you won't. For my own sanity, I won't be responding to any further notifications from this thread.
I'm tired and a tiny bit disappointed and frustrated, but it's for my own good.

Apple guy said delivery arrived at the store at 9am. Think I saw it available for reservation at 9.15am. Looks like as soon as delivery arrives at store it takes few mins to check in into inventory.
Definitely not the case because I'm seeing 256Gb Black 7+ all over south west that definitely wasn't available to reserve at 6am this morning, was one or two 128Gb 7+ that went in seconds and that was it.
All the best mate, I think ill be in the same position soon, so annoyed. Not sure what to do then cos the AUP sounded right up my street
Thank you thank you thank you - I've managed to reserve a (matt) Black 7+ to pick up tomorrow. Going to swap out the gold I got last week!! I was wanting the JB but as I'll be putting a case on I figure as long as I get the black screen I'll be happy!
Of course now I'll spend the next 18 hours trying to decide if I should swap or keep the gold to match my MacBook and Beats!!
I GOT ONE!!!
128GB Plus Black at Stratford, picking it up tomorrow evening. Looked just now on the off chance. Buzzing!

Guys this isn't a matter of 'fair'. Apple have a significant number of (extremely expensive to own and rent) stores across the country which they NEED to stock. Imagine tescos not having any bread in their supermarkets as they kept it all for people who do their weekly shop online... Ok not exactly the same but.yoy get the point.
Everyone who ordered online got a date they would get their phones, there's nothing unfair about them keeping to those dates. If anyone is not happy and wants their phone sooner then they do like you and scour the stores.
And the point about the USA getting stock first.. Is there really any suprise apple supply their home territory ( and one of, if not the biggest)... Remember it's 'designed in California'

Brilliant.
Interesting... not sure how where each stock is coming from then but I don't think 6am is just left overs from the 10pm drop. Can't rule it out though.
Great seeing more + black stock arriving. Good to know if JB is just too high maintenance when it arrives, changing it for its matte sibling would be too tricky in early Oct
Just bagged a Silver Plus 128GB for collection from the Reading store tomorrow for the wife. Seems to be plenty of stock around as a few nearby stores had some.
Should go so way to appeasing her annoyance I got mine delivered earlier (she was waiting on Vodafone).

You're right about the stores needing stock, irrespective of online order wait times
You're also right that apples most precious market is the USA. I'm shocked how us- centric their key notes still are. And they wouldn't dare dramatically raise prices in the US too
