Mine is coming from Buffalo...
No it was preparing since 0950 this morning, never went to shipping. Was having it shipped to home, which may have been the problem. I see lots of pickup at store that went through on time.
Hmm mine just went from Processing - Pre-Ordered on the details page to Processing - Order Received. It was a Nov 10th store pickup, Could I be getting it early? Or is it just because it's past midnight it's not considered a pre-order anymore?

FYI - for the 11/10 people, check the product page and see if your nearby stores got any in. I was able to go to the “change” order section and select a different store (only 10-15 mins further away) and it said available for pickup today. Other stores said 12/15.
I didn’t change it though - I created a new order just to be safe (in case my old one at the closer store magically updates in the morning). So my new order I just placed a few minutes ago for the different store already says “Preparing” whereas my old order still says “Order received”.
Also I’m purchasing outright, so I did not enter any carrier information. If you entered carrier info, you’ll probably want to switch stores on your current order, to avoid your account having a lock and the order not going through.
If neither of these go through for tomorrow morning pickup, my other option is going to Verizon at 8 am, as they said they got some in but couldn’t disclose how many until 7 in the morning if there’s a line. I told him to put a list up so people would know whether it’s worth waiting, but I don’t think he listened, haha.

Ha same here (post right above yours). Although I just went back and checked again, and now they all say 12/15. Weird because just a few minutes ago at least 3 or 4 nearby had 11/3 pickup date. I wonder if I got lucky, or if it was a fluke and it’ll get cancelled...
It was worth a shot...now the store I chose says 11/15 but there are others that still say available. Looks like other people are ordering now that it shows available for pick up. I bet by morning they'll all say 11/15. Guess I'll wait and see.
Best Buy just sent me an email at 11:59 p.m. (CST) stating the following in regards to my iPhone X 256GB Space Gray order at 2:06 a.m. on 10/27:
"We're sorry – your ordered item(s) are taking longer to fulfill than we anticipated.
Please be assured we'll continue to work on this order, and once the item(s) become available we will let you know. If we are not able to complete your order by December 02, 2017, we will notify you and cancel the item(s). "
They did this same exact thing the night before the ATV4K was due to arrive at my home and I still received it the day of. Dealing with customer service was a nightmare as they had little to no information to offer. Hopefully this will provide hope to some who receive the same message.
That sucks. What was your original date?
You may want to check the website and see if other nearby stores might have one for 11/3 pickup (see our posts right above yours).
Wow! Good tip! Hawthorne CA has a few available for pickup tomorrow! Unfortunately I have plans for tomorrow and that’s an 80 mile drive from where I live though =/
I wonder if there was some kind of tracker website that notified people? Not sure. I just happened to be checking my order, then clicked on the link to the actual product page... and it said none available at my store, but a store 9.1 miles away had it for pickup today... I was like... what?!
And immediately went back to my order to change it. Then I decided not to, and placed a new order instead, just to be safe, lol.
I would like to place another order from B.B. for a Verizon phone but it won’t let me because I placed an order through Apple. I’m considering canceling my Apple order so I can reorder through BB. Does anyone know if I’ll be able to reorder immediately through B.B. if I cancel my Apple store order?

There's a charge on my CC already...hoping that's a good sign of actually getting it today lol
