I think Apple have deliberately constrained the cosmic orange.
Yes, that well-known technique for increasing company profits: deliberately don't make products that people are waiting to give you money for.

They may have messed up their silver / blue / orange demand estimates slightly, but rest assured they are absolutely making and shipping these things as fast as they can: they want to have the best quarterly results they can to boost their stock price.

If I were them I’d drip the hot new colour slowly to keep people in stores asking about them.
I’ve been monitoring stock over the past few days and it’s heavily been blue.

Heavily blue and the odd silver and orange which is annoying for silver fans like me

What’s better, a customer in the store asking about something they can’t buy or one who has already given you their money? (Hint: it’s the second one)
 
Lol. Too late to cancel online order.

Does anyone know what John Lewis return policy is only phones if you’ve opened the box and used it? Considering buying a Pro from them as a long time PM user. I have absolutely no intention to return it but the Apple policy of allowing returns a does provide peace of mind. I am not sure if JL is the same?
 
I bit the bullet today and got lucky at 11:30am with Norwich. They had blue and orange. Yesterday closest stock was Cambridge.

17 Pro 256gb Cosmic Orange.

I had planned to trade in my 15 pro max 256gb but the iCloud backup was glitching so I’ll do that next week, however I might try sell privately first.

Typing on a non max iPhone is horrible 😭😁😭
