You’ll have to watch it though early in the morning and reserve it because they run out fast in a couple of hours but don’t worry it will reappear again the next day. They always get stock of phones everyday. I checked my locations this morning and I saw about 10 stores near my location who have phone availability for reservation which you can pick up today. Some of the people here have tried it already and they were able to get one. Make the reservation first if you can before you cancel your order. I say again, make sure you have your reservation confirmed before canceling your order while you still can. Once you’ve order move from in progress to shipping, you’re too late to cancel it. You might as well wait for it. That’s just my advice to you guys. You can take it or leave it.
Are you talking about placing an actual order or are you able to “reserve” phones in your area? We don’t have the option to do reservations here (L.A.) so if you’re talking about actually ordering, how do you keep the original order while placing a pickup order?
When I found a store on 11/4 that had the two phones we wanted, we decided to cancel our preorders (11/17-24 delivery) and do a pick up instead. But we had to cancel our existing orders before purchasing the ones for pickup. It took a couple of minutes but once the orders canceled, I was able to complete the purchase of the new ones. (A little nerve-wracking since we were trying to get the phones at the same location and when I had checked availability earlier, a store closer to us had both phones one minute, then were out of stock of one of them the next. But I figured if both phones were available in a nearby store the day after launch, they would probably be available the next. At least I hoped the would be, lol.)
We buy our phones outright so there’s no need to deal with canceling upgrades or contracts, etc., so I was just wondering how others are doing this.
Thanks!
