Hit refresh nonstop (on mac and iPhone) from 2.58am until eventual connection at 3.05am. At which point all quick delivery gone.

Frustrating to say the least
 
My Apple Store app on iPhone worked like a charm. Was ordered by 0302 est. Love it
 
Where are you trying to buy? On my end all devices are still showing a september 21 delivery date. I would expect to receive your devices earlier than the 28th.

Max, silver 256. No sept 21 delivery showing for any for me

Did you get it preordered though?
Yes, but Sept 28-Oct 5. Last year they moved up the delivery, so hopefully that will happen again
 
I'm seeing the Max slip for T-Mobile, but SIM-free is still delivers 9/21 as of 2:18 AM for me via the website. Hope you get yours sooner!
 
Yeah, I got the same later delivery date (512GB max), though in store pickup was still Sep 21, so I picked that. In store. Ugh.
 
Just managed to buy the space grey (carrier free) phone for Sept 21. Can I cancel the original order easily enough ?
 
Ordered here in Canada at 3,13am eastern time and receiving mine on Sept 21... Max 64 space grey...
 
The Apple Store App on my 8 Plus was up an running right at 12:01 AM PST and was able to use that device to complete the check out for pre-approval and was able to order 3 more sim-free model iPhone XS Max and completed all within 12:04 AM PST. All have the 9/21/18 delivery and all have been shipped out.
 
May have been a cache issue. I used a different browser and it showed up while Safari which i tried the store prior still showed the back soon banner

I wish it were that, but I was clearing cache and loading on multiple devices

That’s odd, because I got in at 3:07AM and there was plenty of launch day availability for all configurations/colors of the SIM free versions.

What carrier are you using?
 
Sorry to hear that.
It worked surprisingly smoothly for me this year with the Apple Store app.
I was able to order an iphone (with upgrade program) and an apple watch (paid in full) before 3:05 and went back to sleep.
