UK iPhone 5s and 5c Thread

My 2 Gold 16gb's are preparing for shipment ordered at 12.04. Definitely looks like its the higher capacity Golds that are yet to do so judging by the responses here - fingers crossed for all.

Just a quick note on ebay fees I've heard mentioned, if you are a business seller the maimum final value fee for business sellers selling in the mobile phones category is £10. Its 5% officially however the max the fee can be per transaction is £10 (again in this category).

So if you're a business seller and a scalper and you want to make a profit on these its quite easy for them to do so.
 
My 64GB space grey is still stuck at processing :( Hoping to see a change by Monday, since a lot of these have changed to 'preparing to dispatch' already!

None at Brent cross, is there any at Westfield White City, any point coming there?

Even I just been to brent cross, none available.
Based on posts by others looks like not much luck at London stores for gold.
Hope online orders move soon
 
My 32GB gold confirmation sent 00.20 is as you probably expect stuck at processing.

I'm guessing our batch and some others didn't make the flight.. Do you think it's getting there before Monday? Anyone has any previous experience on how it's handled?

And this discussion "Asian scalpers" yadayada.. You should know how incredible stupid you sound when you go on with that PC-**** that it's not relevant. No scalpers can be any colour but its an observation just as it is an observation that they talk on the phone a lot.
Yeah it's a but pathetic to point out that they are Asians, sure... But it's 10 times more pathethic to nag about it like some have done.

... And yeah yeah I'm pathethic to nag about this, but I can give you that:)..

Ad oh btw. Have anyone been given a shipping# yet?

You can just tell who a scalper is, I knew exactly what one looked like at the Aberdeen store a few days ago, constantly on their phone and updating their mates on the status of the queue etc.

Mate you know a scalper when you see one that's all I can say

What were the stock levels like at the aberdeen store when you were there?
 
Mine is still 8-11 Oct.

Need to sell my 5, black, unlocked, recently exchanged at Apple so immaculate, warranty till mid December and its a 32GB.

What to expect for it?

I'm an Indian myself and am appalled at this. So obviously when I'm queuing up to get myself mine I may get associated with them.

I'm also appalled at this behavior and how its taking away the excitiment for us genuine buyers, however its irrevelant as to where your from and its even more irrevelant as to where the scalpers are from. There was no need to comment on on their's or your ethnic background.

We're all in this forum for a common purpose, to discuss, update and vent our frustrations about our orders. The wrongdoers should be labeled by their actions not their country of orgin.

I hope us forum members can respect this view and stop the labeling going forward.

Let's just concentrate on the 5s's
 
Its shocking really... I wouldnt expect this from a big company like apple.

I also ordered mine at 00:05 Gold 32gb and its still processing...

Apple should have advertised it as PREORDERS rather than orders... They have also prioritized carriers to get the phone first rather than their own direct customers... not right at all...

Dont get me wrong I love apple products but this launch is a FAIL!

Waited till 11am and was told the delivery had already been made at 9:30 and no iPhones came in

Aberdeen store reps are extremely cagey about deliveries, even asking a girl with a black top on statin 'business' said she knew nothing of a delivery and don't get told when the delivery is.....I smell something lol

Depends on condition but I sold my mint one for £385
 
I ordered the 16gb gold very late in the day (12:45pm) and I got the "October" estimate, stuck on processing.
 
If it's based on making a flight, maybe we might see some movement today starting from around the same time of day as the ones that changed yesterday.
 
Checked my status last night (ordered silver 64gb at 00.00 on the 20th) and it said my payment had been declined urgent action required.

Had to log in and enter a different credit card. Still says processing - hopefully the declined payment doesn't delay my shipment.

A bit annoyed with the original credit card company as why authorise it on the first order only to decline it later

Where did you see that message. Just on the regular order status page?
