UK Apple store now has pickup options??

[knuster]

Just checked the UK Apple store and saw that after you put your apple watch in the basket, you now also get a pickup option.
This option is not available in the german or french apple store??

So just tried it and after putting london zip code to get pickup places i was given 10 different places to pickup but none were an actual apple store??
This is weird?

Actually it's not. It's somewhere you can have your delivery delivered to. For example when I ordered my 13" retina macbook I took the option to have it delivered to a local Brantano store just up the road as I knew I'd be out that day.

These are simply convenience stores that will accept delivery of the item instead of it being sent to your home address. You then pick it up from the store at your convenience.

Since im from belgium i dont know any of these places.
The weird thing is it was actually trough the apple online store you were given these pickup places
