Brent Cross

Anyone going to Brent Cross Apple store to pick one up? What time would you recommend getting there?
 
I think all online retailers in the uk have a minimum of 7 day change of mind policy, under distance selling regulations.
 
Planning to turn up at Exeter Apple Store at 6am to get a 32GB Space Grey 3G
 
Thanks guys, it is 3% :eek:

I hope tesco 30 £ code work once they have in stock, fingers crossed :D:D:D
I'm assuming it will work, if you go here it says "View Special Offers" under the price of each of them. It shows you the voucher codes when you click on it.
 
damm right :mad::mad::mad:

PS: anyone have any idea how much student discount we can get on ipad air ? If i remember it correctly it is 3% on the ipad air and we have to access the website through uni network ?

You can order outside your university network as long as you have the direct URL for the specific store, if you google it you should be able to find the address since they're all the same except for the number at the end.

Thats what people are talking about that there is a high probability that tesco will going to remove that code or somehow it will not work on ipad air... all speculation:D

Just before 7. But your guess is as good as mine...

Can't wait to have an iPad again. Been without mine for too long...

Going all out on a 128GB 4G silver/white!

Even they don't know if that offer will apply. So somehow I doubt it will.
 
At what time does the online orders for Tesco become available? Same as in-store (8am)?

I'm trying to get this info out of them at the moment, but no replies as of yet.

Will post if they do get back to me.

I got a less than stellar response over twitter.

I'm on a night shift tonight, so shall post an update if it goes up any time this evening/the wee hours.
 
Really annoying that we can't reserve online and pickup in store. They did that with the iPad 2 and it worked really well. I work near the Regent St store so i was hoping to go and grab one at lunchtime. Do you think it's realistic that i might be able to go and grab one?

If not, do Tesco offer a click and collect?

They offer click and collect, but you have to wait until after 4pm the next day (although its normally earlier than 4pm). Its not like Argos where you can reserve instore stock.
 
I went into Tesco Extra Hanley earlier and they had no idea if they were getting the iPads in or not. I told the guy that Tesco had told me directly via Twitter that the Hanley store would be getting stock, he was still oblivious and just said unless apple are sending out couriers then they won't know until it arrives.
 
Just been to my local Tesco Extra, spoke with the guy in the electrical dept who said they already had their delivery. Managed to reserve one and will be return at midnight to pick up. He spoke to the manager and apparently they can start selling them at 12;00 but not all stores will have staff on overnight to deal with customers wanting iPads; hence the 8am information from Twitter.

Getting completely ignored/buried on twitter lol

If you order through the education store do you get a free extended warranty like you do with the macs.

Took them the best part of three hours to concoct their pointless response to me - wouldn't hold your breath!

Kind of a shame that you can't use the £30 off voucher in store...
 
bothered?

Will you be bothered if you DONT get one tomorrow?

I will be mighty p*ssed!

Apple store Oracle Reading don't let me down!

Don't think you get a free extended warranty even with the macs. I had to pay £50 or so to extend mine for three years..?
 
To those who have been to Apple product launches before, does anyone know roughly how long it takes between the store opening at 8am and getting out with your new device? I'm asking because this will be my first one and I have a University lecture at 9am. Luckily though my Uni is very literally just around the corner but I just wanted to get some sort of idea of the timing if I'm in-and-out, :)
 
Tesco still stating 8am.

Roll on midnight hopefully all the third seller retailers website will then go live!
