Can you pay full price for Verizon phone at target?

How often does idevicetracker update its website regarding inventory availability?

Has anyone been able to purchase full price at Target? I would be interested to know if this is possible as well.

That's why the only thing I rely on is my python script, but it's weakness is that I have to be at home or at least near my computer when it is connected to the internet (which is why I'm working on making a web app out of it so I can carry it with me everywhere, though in all fairness, I'm more likely to be able to complete the transaction with my computer anyway, so I don't know how useful mobile access would be to me).

OK Ladies and Gents. I have officially given up on getting a plus.

I have tried almost non stop for 6 days no avail so I am bowing out.
Good luck to the rest of you.

Same here. Staying up late, getting up early ...it's wore me out.

The same 15 Chinese scalpers who line up every morning and buy out two of whatever's in stock have won. I give in.

I'm with you, I've tried for 5 days now and no luck for SG 6 plus 64gb AT&T in tulsa area. I'm even willing to drive north to KC or south to Dallas, but there's literally nothing available.

ok i have a plan. I need 10 people who just so happen to have uniforms from US Immigration offices and an american that looks asian. We're going to scare these punks back to their country so we can get our iPhones!
 
Same here. I'm lining up around 5:00 am tomorrow at my local Apple Store. I'm up searching online anyways. I'm just preying that I will be the first person as all stores have a limited quantity it seems like.
Wish me luck.

These chinese are unlikely 'illegal immigrants', the illegals need to work to pay the bills. These folks have retired with endless free time are are just gettting by on welfare, food stamps, free housing, free medical and free phone.

A 'credit-card' only sign would suffice to scare them away... (they can't have bank accounts above x dollars to stay on welfare)

Absolutely loving the script! Was trying to figure out a way to host it online somewhere to be able to run it non-locally, especially since I can't install a Python interpreter on my work PC--but a web app would be very cool!

Just an FYI as this is what I chose to do and was successful at scoring 2 6 pluses (one for me and wife). Watch what inventory comes online overnight at each of the given stores around you.

The stock that they will have in the morning will closely mirror what is shown online in terms of provider/color, etc. I confirmed this with manager of the store here in LA.

I don't understand. If you can see the stock online the night before, why would't you just reserve it for personal pickup? Am I misunderstanding how you look at the stock?

How did you go about finding each individual stores inventory?

I just got back from the Dallas Knox location. I got there around 9:15 and there were probably 20 people ahead of me. Store associates came out shortly after and announced there were no 6+'s which caused about 5 people to leave. As they went down the list with what they received for 6's, all but two people in front of me left because the only 64gb was gold and they didn't have much else for AT&T.

I also spoke with an associate that I've worked with in the past there and he said they are receiving 6+'s but not many of them. Last night they got one T-mobile 6+ and it went to the overnight pre-order. He recommended the best way to get a 6+ is online pre-order. He also expects that after this week the inventory should get a little better because of the international launches.

I called all local Staples, Best Buys, and Targets too. Nothing for 6+...

Hey I was there this morning too! I tried to get a Gold 64GB T-Mobile Plus last night, but by the time I checked out it was gone :( Same with two nearby Apple Stores. So I thought what the heck and headed to Knox just in case. Oh well
 
Hi guys,

We're late but our alerts system is now out : http://www.istocknow.com

We'll monitor every minute. Our emails will look like this :

We opened the alerts an hour ago and are about to launch the monitoring bot.
 
I was unable to find a 6+ locally, so I ordered one from apple.com, I used my att upgrade to do so, it obviously hasn't shipped nor my card charged. If i find one locally before it ships can I purchase it using my upgrade eligibility? If so how do I go about doing so, how does the timing work in regard to this if I find one in person or for personal pickup online? Thanks.
 
I got my 6 plus. I decided to chance it at the Grand Central Apple store here in NYC since the online pick up option keeps coming up as unavailable. The store opens at 7am and i was there at 7am with a long line ahead of me (no way i would camp out to try to get this phone even if i wanted it badly). I thought no way they have the stock but they did.

I came out with a VZ 6 plus 64gb in space gray. I would give the brick and mortar a shot. I think phones will only show up online when there is a surplus of devices after all the walk-ins have been attended. The lines here in NYC continue to wrap around the block. I am not sure everyone should keep waking up at crazy ours of the night to see if there is stock available.
