Anyone who preordered period should get their model before stores get ANY.

I know obligations have to be fulfilled to resellers/carriers, but past that all preorders should come first, otherwise, what is the point of preordering.

This would stop the lineup outside the store stupidity for the most part as well, maybe.

The real solution would be prepare for the freaking week 1 demand.

I've been saying this for years.

I'm still showing 10/4-10/10 for an AT&T 7+ 256gb
 
Yeah. I think it has tied to the block you are in an specific model rather than the order date. However for the specific 10/4 block. Several days got the same delivery order so probably in that scenario that will matter a bit
If this is like the 6 with me, we should see shipping by tomorrow or Saturday. Unless Apple really screwed the pooch this time!
 
This isn't AT&T. This is widely known that they suck at their preorders and fulfillment. Apple has it down a lot better then them. Big

If Apple was really that much better, we would all have phones tomorrow....

Wow. What is Apple thinking? No plusses in their stores but supplying them to carriers' stores. Insane!
That guy is a liar. It's a known fact that Apple Stores get the most quantity. If Apple came out and said no pluses in stores, there are no pluses in carrier stores either. Don't listen to him, he is trolling.

Apple said there are no pluses for pre-orders. There are people in line RIGHT NOW who have proven that AT&T has pluses. No jet or matte black though.

Do a google search. Apple released a statement that there will be no pluses in stores for launch, and no JB in the regular 7.

That's actually not true.

I read the article and it says carrier stock may vary. And sorry, there's more than one person in different states claiming the same thing. It's you that is wrong. And again, it says for walk ins. I verified with Apple Store management.

Actually there are no pluses AT ALL at the Apple Store my friend works at. His team got a memo today about it. Going to suck for them cause they have the pleasure of telling people that they don't have the phone they really want.
 
ok, good luck!

Ok, good luck!!!!
Apple diverted the 7+ inventory to the pre orders. Other retailers will have limited quanity but apple will have zero on launch day for the 7+

That's what that press release is saying if you read it.

a guy I used to work with is a manager at ATT (in Arkansas) and said they should all have 10-15 pluses in each color and storage. If you want to try getting there early you may get one! I would but I have to work :(
[doublepost=1473996639][/doublepost]I work for AT&T. We have ZERO plus and only one black 7 in 128gb. 90 phones in total. Mostly silver.

no movement so far for my oct 4-10 delivery date order on 9/9 at around 3:20am EDT of 7+ MB 128GB
 
  1. It will come. Even Apple is suggesting people to preorder as the fastest way to get it. And our orders are one week old and new ones get October 10 date. I would bet that early next week at the latest we get preparing for shipment
