im from romania. just tell them you have a reservation and you want to pay full price. dont mention anything about iup.
 
My mother just arrived in the SOHO store and the guy that received her, told her that she couldn't buy the cell phone for the full price, because it was exclusive for the iUp plan.

Tomorrow I'll try in another store.

:(
 
I stumbled upon a JB sim free Plus at my local store. Immediately pulled out the credit card.
 
So it says: If a model is unavailable for pickup but said available here : it's available through IUP.

Can a simfree model be set aside by the store for IUP? I see many times an simfree iPhone available on istocknow but not available to reserve for pickup.

I thought IUP was only for the carrier models.

AFAIK iUP is only for carrier models and no way to reserve the sim-free models. You can however purchase the sim-free models for in store pick up (this does require you to pay full price online).
 
Yes that was my understanding as well. But istocknow show many simfree models available near me that don't really show as available when I try to order them.
