How are people doing in store pickup with the express checkout option? When I click "buy now" it doesn't seem to give me an in store pickup option.
I didn't bother clicking "But Now" since I know there are no AT&T iPhones available for pickup around Philly. But it's best not to click it in case you have it set to shipping and you want to pick up instead.

Best way is to add your iPhone and any accessories to your cart before turning on express checkout. When turning on express checkout, there are options to either ship, pick up, or to ask you every time you check out. You'll also get to assign shipping address and store for pick up.

Hmm I didn't get any of those options when I turned on express checkout...
 
Nor did I.I disabled and enabled it again.From the site:
With this feature enabled, a green "Buy Now" button will become visible on eligible product pages, giving you the option to "express checkout" an item directly from that page using your previously-saved payment and default shipping information. This allows you to skip the shopping cart process completely; simply enter your password to confirm your purchase. Learn More.

I have been unable to find a grey phone in South Florida for weeks....
I submitted a trade in request tru Apple and got my quote and everything but was hoping to send my old 4s after I get a 5s. My quote expires next week. I have been thinking of getting a 5C just so i can send my 4s to Apple (PowerOn) on time and then return the 5c once the 5s is available again. Has anyone done this? or have you been successful in contacting PowerOn to honor your quote longer until you get the phone you want?

I was at the apple store 30 minutes ago, and the rep made this very suggestion to me.

I hope they have large shipment on its way to Florida... there's nothing in stock right now!
 
Always the same 16GB ATT & the elusive 32GB unlocked that is not purchasable. I wonder if these stocks are just showing up because people has not picked up? Had it in my cart, and all I need to do is click "PLACE ORDER NOW". Yet, I kept on failing.
 
Looks like ill be going to the city to get my Gold 16gb. Tried to reserve one at an apple store near me but it wouldn't let me add it to my cart. So I tried the next closest in the city. Ugh.

Should I cancel it and try the next few days to get it closer to me? NY is about 2 hours away.

It seems some ATT stores in SFL got the grey today in 32GB in today's shipment. I am calling tomorrow to see if they get the 16 by chance. Anyone know if return period is the same for ATT stores (heard might be 14)? Or u need to buy in Apple store to get 30 days?

It's 14 days if purchased from AT&T.
 
Super frustrating. Running my fast finger and still missing out on 16GB. choose 32GB, and missed out on each of the 3 store in Portland area. All gave me "Place Order Now" Button. Press it, and Kaboom, nothing.
 
As a general observation, while silver seemed to be stocked in 16GB is most of the SW on Mon. and Tue. It was mostly 16GB gold phones today.

It is possible, that they may stage different color deliveries over the course of a week.

Other possibilities could include manufacturing time after the previous Chinese holiday. Ex. Silver might be easiest to make, and space grey may take the longest.

regardless, even after securing a phone, I am still checking the stock in my area to appease my curiosity.
 
There are currently 16 & 32 GB Gold 5S' in stock at the Grand Central and W. 14th St. stores if anyone is around the area if you're AT&T. 64 GB at W. 14th if you're on Sprint.
