Had a iPhone X for Apple store pickup but was too slow to plug in my CC info and it disappeared when I was ordering. I would have ordered for delivery but will be out of the country on 11/10 .. .for a couple weeks. (Yes, many are being pushed up to 11/3)

Last year, I was able to find a iPhone 7 Plus at Best Buy a week after release.

Do you think the X will be the same now?
 
I think you need a crystal ball to answer that question. That said I very much doubt it and I'm sure the iPhone will be a lot harder to find in stock then the 7 and 7 Plus was.
 
Retail, like always, is going to be a treasure hunt until demand is satiated. Sites like istocknow.com should help but they just cover Apple Stores -- don't know if buying at BB is must or if you don't live near an Apple Store. I suspect if you are one of the first few hundred at a local Apple Store you should be OK.
