First note - by the time people read a posted thread where the airpods are showing stocked on the site there is a 99.9999 % chance they are sold out already- dont waste your gas or phone trying to drive to a listed store or call- by that time they will be OUT .................so if you want to purchase, you need to refresh the istocknow.com page every few minutes on your own time. And if your store has them purchase online directly from apple immediately

This is a list of where I have seen the icons though so you can see if stores are getting ANY stock as most of the time when people visit there, it looks like no one is getting any.
This is just to show where stock has been received ( and by the time posted here is likely sold out but it was there at some point)


so far I have seen stock - all sold out but they did have some up today -
in multiple places in the UK
norfolk VA
akron OH

feel free to add if you see stock ( we know it wont be available but it can be helpful to see they ARE getting it at some stores)

Phoenix! Camelback Biltmore right now! I'd have snagged it but FedEx is *supposed* to deliver mine tomorrow. Best of luck to you!

Finally Phoenix gets lit up, but I got mine from bestbuy for delivery tomorrow.

Congrats! I was super tempted to order from BB last night when that little window opened up, as my Verizon order hadn't moved... luckily I got a tracking number this morning. I'm still refreshing istocknow for the entertainment though. :)

Also not cancelling my original Apple Jan 12th delivery order until I have working AirPods in hand tomorrow.

Smart to do that, I was sort of fed-up waiting for apple to restock the stores and once I saw I could get it tomorrow I ordered asap.
 
Best buy just came into stock again with 2 day shipping, so I ordered a pair from them, they should be here at some point soon. i hope the folks here can see the stock is pretty random and all over the country if you want to pick up in person! hit refresh ! Good luck to all the airpods hunters!
 
They were in stock at the Lincoln Park Apple Store (Chicago) briefly a few minutes ago. I tried to get a pair for my sister, but they sold out again while it was trying to process my Apple Pay.

Has the "green" been a little lighter today? I've been periodically refreshing, and I saw TONS of green yesterday but far, far fewer green icons today.

Wondering if there's a dip in the stock again. Glad mine is on the FedEx truck today (finally).

I thought something was wrong, I only seen one green button yesterday and none today so far....
 
Stores appear to restock every other day. Which makes sense really - they're shipping in such small quantities by Apple standards that it must be more efficient to stockpile and send every other day than a smaller amount every day.

Union Square, San Fransisco has 131 units in stock right now. Did they get the whole world's supply?! LOL!
 
Yes they do seem to have less stock the last 24 hours ( which is frustrating since pick up before tonight is what most people want!)
