For those of us who didn’t get their pre-orders in for launch day pick-up, what are the chances that between now and November 3 that more stock will be added to store inventory? Surely they will have a few models in-Store for line up customers and any DOA iPhone Xs?!
I checked today and got this message from Apple.com.au, as per screen shot.
I plan on checking each night/midnight leading up to launch day!
What will you be doing if in the same boat as me?

My advice would be to wake up 10 minutes before reservations re-open at 6:00 AM your local time. Be quick and you might get one. I wasn't quick enough with my preordering and I have to wait until 20-27 to receive my iPhone.

Yes I will definitely be waking up at like 5:30 and periodically refresh this page until I get options to reserve! I also plan to check on stock through the Apple store app at midnight the 3rd and the 4th. Nothing will get in my way this time. Not going to be disappointed a second time!

The screenshot doesn't look from US
It’s Australian, however there is a USA page too. About to grab the links...

Sadly it looks to be an Australian only page!!!

That's still an Australian link

Got US?
Sadly once I click the option for the US pages it goes to the standard pre order page. Must be Australian centric. We don’t have the iUP option here, and the page that I have is linked to service providers with plans, which took me to the featured reservation page!

Have been checking this page twice daily and tonight - well early morning hours the page has come up with a strange notice:
