Opened the app at 2:01am(central time), still showed the store was down. Kept closing and re-opening the app. At 2:07am I was able to complete my order, got a November 3rd delivery to my home. iPhone X 256GB, Verizon, on the IUP
After I did that, I went back in to the store app and ordered an Apple iPhone X leather case, will be delivered on 11/1, so 2 days before I get the phone. All set!
I did the same except I got in on my iMac after unsuccessfully trying my iPhone and iPad (Apple Store wouldn't open; still showed the come back soon logo). Pre ordered around 3:04 am EST (11/3 delivery) then went back to order the Otterbox case (picking up in store on 11/1). I had no intention of loading my iPhone order with anything because of the delay. I'll get Applecare + later . . . after my wallet recovers. 😉🙄😎😀
