That is poor that there is no information as to stock level; I am surprised they are not more transparent as to stock level to save time for people. Not very Apple?
Got a tip for us?

I would go with the official definition:
verb (used with object)
7.
Informal.
to resell (tickets, merchandise, etc.) at higher than the official rates.
to buy and sell (stocks) so as to make small quick profits.
And then the unofficial:
Person with low morals, one who takes advantage of less fortunate to make a minor profit at that persons expense.
Take your pick.
Anyone in the Redbridge area had a UPS delivery yet?
Mine is coming from Barking Depot, but no sign of nothing yet....
I had one delivered at around 11am to the IG3 area
Just got red case for my 6+ arriving Monday or Tuesday
I went to the Apple Store in Regent Street... Well, they have tons of iPhone behind the genius bar, but the queue is MASSIVE You have to queue even if you want to try the new iPhone on the desks lol I mean, it's crazy...
So happy I chose the Plus, it's big yes, but it fits amazingly in my hands as I'm used with a Galaxy S4 and the iPhone 6 + is only a few mm larger and 1/1.5cm taller. Can't wait to get it!

On way home from Regents Street pick up. Still masses of people queuing.
Got in store in line for reservations and had to report one guy who pushed in. Whilst I was being served same guy tried again and according to apple employee he's tried loads of times and even changed his clothes!
Apparently the digital reservation done for those turning up on the day has thrown the scalpers and changing clothes and coming back has been a tactic for a few to get more phones! Unbelievable and loads of them

I've got the same scans as you guys as well, we're all on the same shipment it seems......hope we get an update on the actual day soon!
Although all my emails/texts from Apple that came during the night said I would have it on the 23rd, even when I logged into the website earlier today it still said 23rd. It is now saying 22nd on Apple's site.
Personally think its wrong. They are not genuine customers but looking to make quick buck. Don't say ban them forever just not on opening weekends so that genuine people who will use it can get them

There are people walking the queue and asking what phone they want. They then send you an email or text to confirm you have a phone and you can come back at any time in the day to pickup

Never understood the queuing or scramble.
Got a call from my local Vodafone shop - I had my contract upgrade preorder (on Monday) sent to the store as was flying home this morning.
I walked in to a small group of people pestering the staff about why they had no phones and staff saying "noones getting any for a week or so sorry". And the manager comes over and hands me my 6 silver 128
They also had a demo 6+ in gold I store but my god! the size of it and colour....ugh.

that sounds a cool system; how come the queue is so long if they are operating such a plan? could you not just leave and come back if they have the stock?
I think I do lean to your take on scalpers; but I understand for Apple is possibly low down on their concerns. Within reason, a sale is a sale.

No worries, mine area been visited already by UPS, DPD, Royal Mail & custom company from Croydon. -.-
Not happy.
Have my phone reserved at Manchester Apple Store between 1-2. Just arrived to a MASSIVE queue for reservations which, according to staff, is over an hour long. As I have a 1hr lunch break at work I will have to come back later.
Apparently my order will be available up until 8pm.
Hope it is.

Mine has arrived at mom and dads. But I'm at my house waiting for the scrap man to collect my old Passat #
Has anyone still not got a time slot from UK Mail? On twitter they said it would be before 8pm
On twitter they said it would be before 8pm Hoping Spigen release a new glass screen protector soon covering the whole screen.
I noticed when scrolling on music using the list of letters at the side it was harder due to the protector ending right on the edge of the display.
