I hope this is not true, but I am just asking since Japan did not have any 15 Pro Max shipped to a single Apple Store for like 9 days now.
 
I'd say check every day. In my area that have been two this past week - just a little too far to drive. You can click buy on Apple's web site - click on the options you want all the way to the end, and then click on the link for availability.

What is the point of checking every day if the inventory goes away in a second?

I sometimes see a single inventory appearing, and when I attempt to check out, it says nothing is available.

I can't beat those automated scalper bots the Japanese are using...

It will not go away in a second after first few weeks. I've seen some stock show up around the Chicagoland area and depending on how much they received it still showed up available for pick up for the entire day on certain stores. So it all depends on which store you are looking into.

Apple Store does receive shipments on a daily basis and they will update their inventory once they open those packages. They do not know what's in them ahead of time unfortunately. I would say in a few weeks store should have plenty in stock.

Been seeing many phones popping up all week here Miami. Managed to help 2 family members secure their iPhone 15 pros this week. Keep trying. Good luck.

I hate people who keep smuggling Japanese iPhones to their countries... It makes getting an iPhone in Japan so difficult!
