apple store app wasn't even live until maybe 8:04am EST and then it crashed at the end of the order process repeatedly. I panicked and bailed on Pacific Blue 12pro and tried Graphite back up plan but even that wouldnt work. By that point Verizon website had been live for several minutes so I thought I was doomed but I was able to get the blue pro for 10/23 through vzw successfully! Panic over!
I had to go through Verizon too. Hopefully their trade in process won't be too crappy.

Store didn't open until 6:06 in Canada. My order was checked out by 6:08 (the app and website were at a crawl) and the date in my email is Oct 20- Nov3 for a pro in pacific blue
Not for me. Order done at 6:04, email at 6:05.

Used LTE to get in quicker.

I didn't realize there was pick up in store options. Has anyone been able to change it from delivery to pick up in store before?

Got my order for a 12 Pro 128gb in Pacific Blue and a Plum Silicone case in. Delivery 10/23 for the phone and 10/21 for the case. Now the waiting game begins.

Had to go through Verizon after all. When we finally got in on the Apple app, we got hosed at the account verification. Never received a passcode, so hopped over to Verizon - who was open 4 minutes early, btw. He has the order confirmation for October 23rd arrival date.

I’m buying mine outright and SIM free so hopefully I’ll be able to bypass the Verizon account verification when it’s my turn on the 6th. Otherwise, I’ll have to do the same.

Good luck all!

Tried to have in store pickup but it sold out quick. Ended up getting it delivered to my house

That’s so odd. The last couple of years, my Apple Store has had all models in stock for several hours for pickup, while the delivery tends to sell out as fast as people can order.

I tried to order 12 Pro Max as soon as orders pre-opened but the Max shows that I can’t pre-order until 06:11 ?. Did they sell out that fast??

I hope this does not happen with the Apple store when pre-orders for the Pro Max begin. I want to use my Apple Card for monthly payments and trade-in discount, then payoff early. If I have to go AT&T I won't be able to do that and the phone will be locked for 30 months.

Shipping time for the Pacific Blue 256gb Pro on AT&T had slipped to middle of November as I was also trying on the Apple store. At checkout it said next Friday but I kept getting errors and slipped to 10/30-11/3 after I paid and checked my order. I could grab it in store next Friday but have had awful experiences at my local store so I’ll just sit around and wait for FedEx a week later ?

If you pay off your installment agreement with AT&T you should be able to pre-order ahead of time here right? Good luck!
