Question

If it say available for pick up at the bottom of the screen when ordering an iPhone for inshore pick up does that mean i can get it tomorrow? Just scared to cancel my att and apple order if i can't...
 
My order screen has blocked out the check availability and on the pay screen it says "Available in Retail Stores" now instead of previously allowing you to check the availability. The chat told me that they werent allowing pickup in store today so I'm not sure anyone knows what they are talking about at Apple at this point. My friend who works at apple told me they just got a shipment (Louisville, right by the UPS hub) but he was unsure if they would be taking pickup-orders yet

Available for pickup:
Visit an Apple Retail Store
this????
 
That's what they all say once you select a store. Basically the system is show none (or can't see) so they are telling you to check at the store for availability.

Mine is doing this without even letting me select a store or check availability. Guessing the system is screwy again

Gotcha, makes sense. All I remember is after the 5s launch day, that night a friend checked online and was able to get one through store pick up once they updated inventory and received inventory...thanks. i have 10/2 like everybody else and my wife has 10/13 through the apple store.
 
Available for pickup: Available-Visit an Apple Retail Store

This is what mine says

I had that conversation with someone on Apple's chat earlier. I said "the website is saying "available for pickup", and she explained that "available for pickup" is Apple Marketinglish for "not available for pickup".

Doublespeak!
 
Canada sucks. How are my Americans doing? Any luck with the method in this thread?

Ah, that's like the President, affordable healthcare means $10,000 more in my annual premium. I can keep my doctor means I can't keep my doctor. Oh I can go on forever.
 
clear your browser history... it'll let you check stores by zip again.

All stores within 500 miles of me say unavailable for pickup
 
Come on Apple! I would really like to fill this case with an iPhone 6 plus tomorrow! :D
