Hey I'm in SA myself. I ordered mine last night at 1:30am local time for La Cantera. When I ordered I saw all the stores in my zip range (including North Star) light up for 64 gig 6 pluses in all colors.
I'm thinking that too. I went to my apple store an hour before they opened and and they had a big line. Stay up till 10:30 and saw no updates, and nothing all day today.
Nope, at least not for the 6 Plus. Only Boise
Yes, i actually looked at a map and for a second considered driving.. Just for a sec
Darn it! I live in Lexington and that's what I want except I want a 60GB not 16GB.
Did you order on apple.com or app? I was wondering if that makes a difference. Maybe one has more current info than the other.
Thank you OP for this thread, i was able to place an order for AT&T 128GB silver 6+ just now. It is not the closest store but who am i to complain when my pre-order ship date is oct 12th. Woohoo~~
I've been wondering this as well.
Is there a mass system update at midnight ? Just wondering if system will change after the store has closed or if what it shows now will be the same until they open tomorrow.
I think the system just updates as inventory is brought in and processes. I've been randomly checking the availability of some phones and I noticed more green now "Available Now" then about an hour ago.
That's where you my friend are mistaken. I ordered three 6+ from Knox street this morning at five am. Two 16 n one 64 att. The inventory gets available online and stores can't reserve them before store actually opens.
So if I see a phone come available, what do I do to make it an in store pickup order as opposed to a shipping order?
if its available to pick up in store it will give you the option, otherwise it will say unavailable.
Refer to my previous posts. You can do this, however some apple reps may or may not know how to handle this process. The process involves,
- Returning the phone
- Repurchasing the phone under NEXT (Upon returning the phone your eligibility should be reset)
- Getting a new SIM card (they will provide this)
I can say this process worked successfully as I ordered my phone online and paid 801.98 (6 Plus 128gb), had it returned, then rebought under the NEXT 18.
Rule of thumb -> DO NOT OPEN THE PHONE. I think this makes it go by much faster. I was getting mad dirty looks walking around an un-opened 6+ (when the rest were sold out)
