DHL just arrived with mine (silver)! Surprises it was so early. Just now need to wait for the DPD delivery for the other one (space black). The driver looked stressed already.

Unfortunately, I need to work now before I can play with it!

Congrats to all those who've managed to get theirs already or later today, enjoy!

Meanwhile I hope DPD pay for this:

My DPD driver was in a good mood this morning!

I got my in-store pickup for tomorrow morning, anyone know if I could go to the store today and pick it up early?

I’ve never understood how shopping centres can charge for parking - Westfield does this.

It’s not like they can’t cover this from ground rent for the stores inside.

If I wasn’t in London today, I’d have collected mine from my local store in a mall that has (shock) free parking.

Thieving b*stards.

Greed.

Anyone on TeamDHL still waiting for a slot? Also those that show 8-8 do the 1 hour slots come through when the snake appears? Mine has the following which I assume means on Van but no movement yet?

 

[bbfc]

mine changed once vehicle left depot, if it helps

Just updated. Now waiting on DPD.

 

[Diorama]

Anyone else have their DPD turn up before being given a slot, or just the one of you? I need to tell my former landlord what the slot is or he prob won't hear the door!

DHL stop 136 (17:07 estimate). Happy to be the one who takes the pain so others get more luck and theirs earlier

Anyone else got a higher stop count?

Picking my iPhone and Watch up from the store this evening, itching to finish work bang on time

None of the ones I was trying to use said anything about excluding Apple products. There was a few people on their Twitter asking the same. They just said ‘sorry can’t be used’. They really aren’t what they used to be. No wonder they are struggling.

Historically, there is a really small profit margin on Apple products - one reason PC World refused to stock their products initially, was that they demanded a 30% margin, which Apple wouldn’t agree to (at that time, the profit margin on a £1,000 iMac was just £70).

I suspect that JL exclude Apple from these deals (as I found out myself recently!) because it’s just not economically viable, especially as they give a free two-year warranty.

Yep got mine about half and hour a go... 13:10 - 14:10

Made it to London. I am very sleepy 😴

Going to leave bags at the hotel then off to Regent Street.

Hope everyone is enjoying their new phones/tracking them 😂

£20 for 3x 12 Pro silicone cases to CEX.

Not amazing but I also don't have any use for them anymore, so hey-ho.

 

[Jinjin]

Not to tempt you but I’m still in awe

I am jealous of that space black!!

I'd really consider it now over the Deep Purple... if I wasn't just going to slap it in a case and not look at the back again

 

[SnooApples5021]

11:23-12:23 via dpd decent but an equally painful wait

Thanks - Did yours also first show the 8-8 slot with no movement?

 

[Bazooka-joe]

I got my in-store pickup for tomorrow morning, anyone know if I could go to the store today and pick it up early?

I don’t think so as they’re not even accepting walkins. All the slots will be fully booked today
