My local apple store said this exact same thing as well. Go on the app or site and order the phone at 6AM any morning and choose in-store pickup. They get shipments every day. It wasn't a "secret" though.
I just reserve another silver 256 gb x at my local Apple Store for today pick up. You definitely can do that as long you do it fast since the supply might be limited.

Per my apple store, tomorrow morning 10am reservations for in store pick up can be made online
I second this. I just did it this morning.
 
I'm pretty sure that there won't be doing the reservation system for the iPhone X this time around.

*Atleast in the U.S there won't be.
You can buy online and reserve for store pick up today. I just did for another one.

I just made a 10am reservation, they have the X IN STOCK. Going to pick up the 256SG at 10.
Me too.

I didn't pre-order the iPhone 7+ last year, but was able to pick one up with the IUP link the weekend it came out. I'm not in the Apple program. Will it be the same this year? None of my pre-orders have shipped. Such bad luck! :( Haha
No iup link this year as it appears. I just successfully reserve one.
 
It is up now, just not in reserve and pick up site. Go to Apple store apps, buy it online and choose store pick up.
Well it sounds like you can't just reserve now and pay in store though. Meaning you have to pay first then pick up. Unlike last year and the year before that were you could just reserve, pick a time, show up and pay it at the store when you pick it up.
 
I had to cancel my order, then I had a wait a few mins to place the new order for in store pickup. I paid in full so not sure if that makes a difference or not.

Got mine for pick up too on the app. Thank you.

If you are using the Apple upgrade every year plan, you have to pay taxes and fee of $176 for 256 X during online reservation process.

For me, I already have the iPhone X in silver. But I want it in Space Gray. I may just end up ordering one for pick up and then return this one.

I wonder if the one I buy but when I pick it up, return it as a unopened item and then do a straight exchange? I have 8 minutes left before it I can attempt.

Yes. I just check again and my configuration is out of stock already. If you want to pick up today, order now before it is gone.
[doublepost=1509793325][/doublepost]Stocks are depleting very quick after my announcement in Apple stores in my area. Amazing :)
 
Meh. Still requires carrier account validation. Sure enough, availability lit up in one of local stores but still no go without the actual VZW account. (want to use this @ Total Wireless). I guess I'll keep waiting.

Apparently Apple store near me doesn't have the Verizon 256 GB Space Gray when I checked right at 6 am. But there is one 1 hour 18 minute drive from me. Guess I'll have to keep checking.

That's what I'm doing.
 
Does it work with the apple app or need different link? Also can I do it with att next or better to pay in full then swap in store?

Just go on the Apple site and buy the phone as you normally would and after a couple screens, you'll have the option to select in store pickup, granted if the store you choose has inventory in stock.
 
When I go to check out on the app it shows delivery 3-4 weeks and below says pick up today at xxx. How does that work?
 
So when I get to the store as my designated time, I wont have to wait in the iPhone correct? Do I just tell the store person I have a reservation?
 
Thank you very much for this thread.

My phone has been lost by UPS - I saw this thread, jumped on the app and looked to have grabbed the last 64 SG at Perimeter Mall in Atlanta. Going at 12:30.

F UPS!
