My wife, bless her heart, decided last night that she really wanted an iPhone 6 (she wasn't a fan of my 6+'s size), and since I was off today and had to go by the mall anyways, I decided to surprise her with a new phone (she still doesn't know yet). I got to the mall around 10am (when the Apple store opens I believe), and there was a pretty significant line (I'd estimate about 100 people), but I figured why the hell not, so I jumped in line too.
...about an hour passed and the Apple clerks finally made it to us. They explained there were no more 16 or 64GB iPhone 6+'s, and only a handful of 128GB's. That handful made it about 5 people behind me before they were gone too, but they still had plenty of iPhone 6 stock left in all colors and on all carriers except Tmobile, which they apparently had none in the shipment. Got the golden ticket and waited for probably another hour before being called in.
After about 3 hours total, I was walking out with my wife's iPhone 6, as well as a blue leather case for her and the blue leather case the store manager comp'ed me the other night (see the other thread for details). Everyone was really nice, even handed out water to the line (which was easily another 100 people deep when I left). These Apple stores DO have stock, and if you get there early enough, you WILL get the iPhone you want vs. waiting forever for a carrier to ship one to you.
Good luck!
