A lot of stock at my local Apple stores as well! Does anybody know if the Apple stores are opening early today or at their normal Saturday time?
 
There was still quite a bit of stock at Austin Domain last night when I was there around 5pm. I checked this morning as well out of curiosity and they still had most things in stock for pickup. So if you’re in the Austin area check the domain store.
 
Yep, preordering is a sucker‘s game

Yea if you live anywhere near a store I don’t understand why you would pre order unless you want one on launch day.
At this point by day 2 all the stores replenish their stock and you can just walk in and get one.
Walk ins in launch day are a pain at least here in nyc. But I preordered so I could walk in and out at 8:30 am with my phone.
 
my local store has every make and model. purchase mine yesterday at AT&T. walked right in. seems like supply is plentiful.
 
My local AT&T had one pro max and it was in gold. I drove about and hr to another AT&T all they had was a bunch of pro maxes in space gray 256. That’s what I got.
 
Similar here. Every single store close to me has every color/storage option in every model of the Pro/Max available


I'm in MA too. The weird thing is, if you select no trade in, pick up option is not available in any stores??

Checked early this morning as well. Cancelled my 10/4-10/11 preorder and placed a new order for pick up today. My Easy peasy.

I was there too at 10AM to pick up my online order. I noticed a lot people asking for MG phones.

Unluckily, for me my Max had a very small (dust speckled sized) chip on the bezzle. Luckily, I had a backup order, returned the scratched one, picked up the back-up, which looks flawless.

Hmmm...

I preordered mine phone from work without having to get up early. The phone was delivered to the UPS center less than 1 mile from work. Picked it up yesterday @ lunch time, set it up and had it transferring on my desk before lunch was over, and by the end of my day I was heading home with a fully transferred, encased 11 Pro Max.

Being at the Apple Store would have mean driving 100+ miles each way, fighting crowds, and delaying my delivery by a day+.

Sounds like pre-ordering was the smart move to me.

Pre-ordered.... shipment date in October. Today... picked one up at a store. All models have been available every day. What is happening? It wasn’t like this last year.
