I'm not sure if this would work for you, but it worked for me. I asked if the CSR had any iphone's in stock, and they would say they don't have the power to do so. I then mentioned that my friend had recently ordered a phone through retention, so I asked politely if they can transfer me to the retention department to see if they could help me.

I guess I had more leeway back then because there were less stock going to the apple stores, but after getting to retentions, I told the rep that people were still lining up at 6am for the phone, and some people even after lining up were not able to get a phone. My rep was nice enough to order one for me.
