Yes, you need to be fast, have your app loaded with order you need , just before the next button which shows store select to pickup. Once you find it available via web browser , hit next in app and finish it, this is worked for me.
Got a tip for us?

Last night, some launch day stock showed up at a couple Toronto locations for my particular model. Was able to check out with PayBright quickly with zero issues. I still have an in-store reservation which I will probably cancel, but gonna hold it for now, because you never know LoL.
Also, as others mentioned in this thread, it appears that Apple/PayBright is showing the incorrect tax amount for me as well. Again, my gut feeling says the correct tax amount will post once the phone has been shipped/picked up, but if not, I will definitely be escalating this up to Apple and PayBright. Note the fine print at the bottom of the e-mail: "The actual tax, if applicable, will be applied when the order ships and your final invoice is issued."
I’m gonna keep trying this. But I honestly did this exact thing like 25+ times Friday and yesterday.
Each time it would be processing payment, then ask me to update contact info which would automatically get blanked out even though it was there at the beginning, then it would get a blue exclamation mark error, and say unavailable. This is all using Apple Pay.
Pickup is different from reservation , in reservation you need to pay in store , this will save time as we avoid entering payment stuffs in checkout.
In-store pickup: Buy online first, pick-up within 14 days
In-store reservation: Reserve first, buy in-store on same day only
Ah. Interesting. Had no idea there were two options getting it from the store. Learn something new everyday.
All my previous iPhones have been launch day delivery. I wasn’t able to order when preorders opened, so now my own chance of getting the 14 Pro in September is from a store.
I switched from 128gb to 256gb due to 4K ProRes is only available for 256Gb or higher due to the size of the files. Apple is good at screwing people by not telling them exactly what they want to hear.
I’m still on the S3 but it’s weird - I am not compelled to upgrade my watch until it breaks or the battery goes up in smoke. I have deeeeeep gouges in the face and lord knows I would love a new one, but unlike the phones I can’t justify it to myself lol.
The S8 looks fantastic and I love the always on and full face display…but maybe later. I’m also toying with going back to my traditional watches. I wore one of my Guess watches to an event this summer and forgot how much I missed my old analogue watches.
Hoping they sort out the tax situation as well. In my paybright account it shows a pending payment for the full value of the tax but I’m hoping that changes once the device ships, as you’ve said.
I dropped like $100 on a decoded case and would love for the tax savings to pay for that case haha
I’m getting an iPhone on launch day for the first time in since the 7 plus!
I managed to snag a pro last night on a refresh or cancellation for pick up using PayBright. Approved, paid the taxes etc (at least as far as I know) got an email this morning saying my order is being processed.
When I look at the status in the Apple Store App, it shows as “on hold” and “once your application is approved we will email you updated information”
Is this normal with PayBright users? Should I chalk it up to a backlog of orders?

It’s a backlog on the app. If you view your order on a desktop browser, it will say Processing.
i had friends who tried and had issues, couldn't get to the store (app) or site, just wasn't paybright issues
Looks like I am back to square one. I decided to cancel my 14 Pro Gold 256GB and wait for a Silver to come available. Both my personal and work phones are silver/white and want to remain with that. Otherwise, I will go through work. Let the excitement die down as I am not in a hurry.
All I see on their site is Space Black and Deep Purple popping up consistently. I think that is craziness. I have never been a fan of dark colour phones.

Anywhere in the GTA. No Silver showing up anywhere. I am wondering if I go to the Eaton Centre and line up on Friday morning at 6am (they open at 8am EST this Friday). I am looking for a 14 Pro 256GB Silver. Will they take walk ins? Does anyone know from previous launch days.
