I've just bagged a 125GB Plus in Jet Black from Glasgow!

Does anyone know if I can turn up early to collect it? I panicked and selected the last available slot but don't want to have to travel through there at rush hour.
Should be able to spin up earlier, a few people have mentioned they've been fine to pick it up before their slot (I guess it's just sat there now anyway!)

Lucky BS!

Reserved one in Liverpool One but now I don't think I'm going to be able to get it.
Trafford Centre wouldn't be a problem, but they've had none in.
 
Pah! You know what I mean. I was too excited to type. :oops:

I turned up 3 hours earlier and was fine to pickup, although on phone they said could be standing around at costa for awhile. Guess it depends on how busy they are, but id still chance it, better early than late.

I'm heading over to L1 for mine later today too, they've had quite a few popping up. Not seen any in Manchester though like you said.

I'll pick it up for you +£599 commission ;)
 
Asked this yesterday but just want to see if anybody else has tried it. Got a 7 from John Lewis, want to return it, but I've opened and used it but it's mint and has the box and everything can I return it?
 
John Lewis question:
On their website it says you can phone the store and they will mail you what you order! So, in theory, if I can find a John Lewis with iPhone 7Plus stock they will post it to me. Could those who know let me know a couple of John Lewis branches that sell the iPhone please? Thanks!

PS I live miles and miles away from John Lewis or any Apple Store or I'd be there asap!!
 
Something similar could be done, although I havent been able to find a json file that provides stock of every store in UK, but you could do something with the following:
http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/retail/pickup-message?parts.0=MP072B/A&location=RG4+8PQ

Thats for a space gray black nylon one showing store availability around reading. Im guessing from that returned result your looking at the pickupDisplay variable != unavailable.
"pickupDisplay": "unavailable"

That's exactly the model I want!

Thanks! :)

Tried this with other items before and it's a hassle and they will only send it on a 3-5 day service.

I'm that desperate I considered for a second.
Hahah.

They had some for Trafford Centre last night but I didn't know about reserving for the upgrade program and then just paying upfront on arrival.
So by the time I fannied about it went.

np, if i get bored later ill knock a primitive one up that notifies on stock of stores locally. seems it has to be pay upfront and collect @ store though as no reserve & collect/pay like for the iphone.
 
Question(s) for anyone still reading this thread that has their new iPhone 7 - where did they go from China and how long did each leg take? And did they usually arrive on the UPS expected date? Thanks
 
What is the stock situation doing then?
Is it just 10pm and 6am with a random point in the day where stock is added? Or is it worth checking throughout the day for them?
