Not sure if there’s anything more annoying than seeing “no stock available in nearest 12 stores” whilst simultaneously receiving tweet alerts that there’s stock in your nearest stores
[doublepost=1510470550][/doublepost]Almost just pulled the trigger on a SG 256 at Trafford - pretty much exactly the phone that I don’t want.

Desperation is a stinky cologne

The guy behind that page admitted it only checks every minute which is nowhere near enough. It isn’t fit for purpose.

If they’d just make enough and deliver them quicker, we’d be fine 😉

Yes. Most notifications appear after the stock has already gone. He keeps Tweeting like that’s just how it is... er, no, decrease your interval to ten seconds!

Fair enough. Thankfully I haven’t been relying on them as such, it was just annoying this morning when it said there wasn’t any and I’m being buzzed that there is 😕
 
Managed to snag a iPhone X sg 256gb yesterday wow what a phone decided against iup and went for iPhone payments instead as don’t upgrade each year and never needed AppleCare in the past good luck all

I have just been looking on the European thread, and there are quite a few that had 21/11-1/12 delivery dates that have been dispatched in the last couple of days. It looks like they are coming from China though. However it only takes a few days to make the trip. I suspect that will happen in this country this coming week.

Yes! Yesterday I got push notification and that’s only reason why I am typing it from iPhone X right now!



Took me while to figure out notifications but worked brilliantly. No more refreshing pages feels weird now lol! and waking up crazy early lol
 
Reserved a 256gb SG this morning for pick up later this afternoon. Should I also get an email confirmation of the reservation and pick up time? Can see my reservation on the app but no email as of yet.

The 13 - 20 Nov phones seem to have been dispatched from 7 - 10 November, roughly (though not strictly) in the order they were placed.

As far as I know, they knew exactly how many phones they'd be getting in the first shipment after the release date and these were all assigned the 13 - 20 Nov bracket. Apple appeared to receive them early this week and took 3 - 4 days to dispatch them all.

So, using that logic, you could potentially expect the 24 Nov - 1 Dec phones to start dispatching from 18 November onwards - but it all depends on when that next shipment is received.

Every time I pre-order anything from Apple it is always a week+ ahead. This gives the impression that they have over-delivered.

Im in the 24-1st delivery window, would be very happy if it arrived a week early! Im presuming that this is the third window, after the 13-20 folk, as no-one seems to have talked about any other dates.

Interestingly, the website is down now, I get 'We're sorry, but our Order Status services are extremely busy right now. Please try again later.' when I try to check my order, bit bizarre given that I would imagine now is when everything would be starting to settle down!
