@dbrose.. I had stripped it back and then it didn't save so just doing it again
as soon as Tim tell us he's going to bankrupt us all with the price increases!
Think I’m gonna go all out this year and upgrade my iPhone. Upgrade from my Apple Watch Series 6. And will have to get some new AirPods Pro with USB-C if they announce those tomorrow too.
Apple Watch and AirPods usually go up for pre-order straight after the event don’t they?
Then the (what feels like a long) wait for Friday for iPhone pre-orders, which gives me a few days to make sure I’m getting the right colour, but I think I’m set on a Titan Grey 🩶

your poor credit card!
does feel like the watches and usb-c accessories will be on sale from Weds.. maybe even in store?!
I’ll boycott the 15 thread if you add poll. Period.

They could surprise us and put preorder up for everything and deliver Friday (wishful thinking) but that will put delivery same time as last year essentially
I did this last year and felt like a kid at Christmas 🤣
Went to a 14Pro (all be it only from a 13Pro so wasn't really an 'upgrade')
But also went from an Aluminium S4 Watch to a Stainless Steel S8
Both the phone and watch in gold - even in the Apple Store when picking them up the employee was like you've gone all out and treated yourself here
Sad that they look to be abandoning gold this year so its between Silver and Grey on the phone front
Enjoy!
Much easier not to leak I reckon. We’ll see. They’re due a catch up to feature parity with the APP2s.
nice seeing you, catch you next year
Pity it looks like the MM honeymoon is over. Nice whilst it lasted and I can understand why, but why not just close the “loophole” properly, rather than mess people around!? My default would have been to fall back to eBay, but they too seem to have changed their approach as loads of people, including me, no longer get the regular final value fee for £1 or 80% off (but that’s another rant topic entirel), so at the standard 13% or so fee it’s just not worth it. As for Carphonewarehouse (which I used happily a couple of times in the past) they are truly low balling.. 🤣Well in the end when MM works, it does just that!
So after Wednesday's dismal performance of visiting my 2 closest Asda stores with Smart Drop Kiosks, only for both of them to be in some way out of order, I went back to one today. It was working and the whole process was done in not much over 5 minutes and the full quoted price was paid (to be fair if MM had a 'As New' category it could have passed for that rather than just their 'good' as there wasn't a mark on it, even hairline from what i could see). £800 total for a 512gb 13PM to show that re-saving quotes works nicely
I saved a quote with them on the 24th Aug (Far Out event announcement day) for £780 + a £10 voucher. Added it to my basket 13 days later (didn't want to risk some sort of mid way through the day cut off on the 14th day), removed the £10 voucher and replaced it with 'UPGARDE22' for the £20 bonus, but then just re-saved rather than proceeding to checkout. Left it there for another 13 days until Monday when i proceeded through the checkout, and on what, day 5 of my 21 days to get it to them, the Kiosk worked a treat. After the pain shared on here re BACS over the weekend i went for PayPal and the money was in my account 5-10 minutes later. Just checked the offer price on MM today and its down to £612 from the £780! (That said Rebuy look to still be offering £758 for an 'As New' phone, but I'm guessing much more of a chance of someone else not seeing it as that). And even on eBay the realistic going rate only looks to be £850-900 (minus fees and postage) ish from recent sales, I'll sell the box etc on there to recoup some of the difference, but happy to lose a bit of money to avoid the jeopardy that inherently comes with eBay (not that I've ever had an issue, but there's always a first time).
So anyway, lets hope that trick still works next year (probably shouldn't have posted this
So dare I say it I might brave the scammers, the “I’ll arrange a courier to come and collect it”, the “why you no offer post to my country” Etc and give FB marketplace a go, collection only, by a real person.

I would like for Apple to release an actual duo charger that isn’t the MagSafe duo travel one. We need an air power revival!
I can't deny there might be a poll.. it will be 'slimmer' like its been on a slim-fast summer... but it might binge on tomorrows keynote and put on a few lbs!
you should see the data I'm capturing on a certain car forum I've been on... 😂

This is giving me memories of last year, I was tracking boats waiting for my car to arrive. I got too impatient in the end and managed to get the exact same spec as a cancelled order after waiting 6 months!
