I got x2 256GB black

Chances of it arriving earlier?

iwantaskyline 10-26-2017 11:17 PM

That seemed a lot easier than I expected...

bcedhk 10-26-2017 11:17 PM

will the 21-28th stilll be "flippable?"

jing 10-26-2017 11:21 PM

21-28 here as well. Doubt it'll be flippable by then.

1x 64gb
1x 256gb

Both silver. Wifey will decide which one she wants when it arrives.. hoping for the former lulz

Razor Ramon HG 10-26-2017 11:21 PM

Picked up 2x 64GB for launch (one for myself, one for flipping)

Additional 2x 256GB for second half of November. Don't think those are worth flipping since the website still shows 2-3 weeks shipping.

I've only seen a couple of listings on Craigslist looks like from the same person 256GB variants are asking for $2200-2600 available on Nov 3.

dapperfied 10-26-2017 11:23 PM

What if Apple just says low supply to build hype?

bcedhk 10-26-2017 11:24 PM

i guess i can try to sell it for 10% more for the 21-28th dates. 1500 dollars in visa reward points ain't too shabby :)

dapperfied 10-26-2017 11:26 PM

Easy money regardless. We’ll see high the demand is.

LP700-4 10-26-2017 11:27 PM

At this minute you can still buy for 21-28 delivery so... Not sure whos gonna pay you guys 10% markup

dapperfied 10-26-2017 11:28 PM

Give their servers time to update, I'm sure they're getting hammered lol.

twitchyzero 10-26-2017 11:41 PM

didn't have an apple ID but it kept insisting I did even with newer work e-mails. Glitch went away after a few min

don't think it's worth flipping unless it's on hand nov 3

A+ on their servers handling the load...or only the geeks and the sheeples bothered to stay up for this...obviously not as accessible as a $80 retro gaming system but still...that went surprisingly smooth

scoobyej20 10-26-2017 11:42 PM

Got 1 unlocked 64GB silver
Got 1 Koodo 64GB silver

Unlocked arriving on launch, Koodo arriving in 3-5 business days

dapperfied 10-26-2017 11:42 PM

Some ppl on reddit reporting Nov 3 for orders 10 mins ago lol wtf

Razor Ramon HG 10-26-2017 11:42 PM

Preorder here, cancel contract, flip it, ez.

That or if you're on Telus, Koodo, or PM, you can use it yourself.

I was refreshing both the app on the phone and the browser on my macbook starting at 11:59 and the browser went live at 12:07 and got my order in at 12:08 for Nov 21-28 delivery for a Silver 256gb. I check the app after I placed my order and it still wasn't live. By refreshing the app I mean double pressing the home button, flick it out, open the app again and keep repeating.

I think they did a staged rollout.

My iPad was the first to go up around 12:03 (checked out twice at 12:04 and 12:05)

My Macbook was next to go up around 12:04 (checked out at 12:06)

My iPhone still wasn't working at 12:15. Thank god I prepared for multiple devices.

Around 12:05 to 12:06 was when it changed from launch delivery to 2-3 weeks. I know because it said I was getting it on November 3, but it changed to 2-3 weeks on confirmation :okay:

RickyTan3 10-27-2017 12:24 AM

The hype of low demand might be rumors set out in industry or by Apple.

The iPhone 6 plus launch it went to shipping 5-6 weeks in like 30 minutes.

I got myself few for launch day and the rest 2-3 weeks.

I think i got like 10-16 or something. The max per account was 4 I believe.
If someone wants to pay stupid amounts for it sure, otherwise everyone gets iPhones for Christmas lol

They gave their newer device priority to load up Apple Store app.

I kept my iPad Mini 2 & iPad Pro open & reload at the same time.
iPad mini 2 still hasn't able load up when I already finished my order on iPad Pro

So newer devices get first dibs? Good to know :cool:

Razor Ramon HG 10-27-2017 12:37 AM

Possibly? iPad Pro, 2017 MBP, iPhone 7. All relatively new devices.. not sure why iPhones got shafted so hard.

twitchyzero 10-27-2017 08:37 AM

probably just a coincidence..
it wasn't even that difficult to obtain so the difference of few minutes isn't that drastic

Hehe 10-27-2017 09:06 AM

Have 4 iPhone X all by Nov 3... easier than I thought... I think the shortage was a hype now...

gonna flip them all of course.. :D

2x64GB black

2x256GB white.

BaoTurbo 10-27-2017 09:54 AM

I'm just going to settle for the Iphone 8 thank you very much :okay:

lol
