Does anybody have any idea whether or not Verizon carrier stores will be having any Space Gray 6+'s in their inventory on Friday? Most stores I've talked to said they wont know until the phones are on the UPS truck on the way to their store, but I was just wondering if anybody heard any different.

Not sure how Apple is planning on selling 80 million on Friday without giving AT LEAST a few 6+'s to carrier stores...
 
If last year proves anything, carrier stores don't get much of the hot ticket models (i.e - the gold 5s), so don't expect carrier stores to get much of the 6+ on launch. They gave priority to the preorders.

I'm not expecting more than a handful of them 🙁

but if I'm first in line, the difference between none and a few is crucial, and that's what I'm looking to find out at the moment...
 
The corporate stores will have higher priority over the resellers. I would bet the resellers get no 6+ models and only a handful of 6 models.

I agree. Luckily my local Verizon store IS a corporate store and not one of those ******** "4G Authorized Retailer" stores...

There were no pre-orders last year at all on the 5s
