Machookup: AirPods stock alerts

@machookup Is there any option to limit to a more local area/a specific store? I love the service but I keep getting alerts for a store 213 miles away, and I'm definitely not driving there for AirPods.
 
Wow!

Within 10 mins subscribing, I got an alert for one to pick up right today. Bought it immediately and now it's gone.

Wonderful service! Thanks so much :D

Got my pair after about an hour from this app, in the heart of the Bay Area.

By far the best thing to come out of these forums in months.

You mean to tell me you're not willing to drive three hours for a pair of headphones? What's the matter with you??

But seriously, I didn't realize Apple was showing results that far away. I'll probably end up removing results more than 75 miles away.

I live in SF, so you know this thing is built to work. ;)
 
WOW WOW WOW you're amazing! Will let you know if it works. One question, I think I am partially stupid, but I can't get the phone alerts to work. What am I doing wrong...lol

Maybe you just haven't gotten an alert yet? Try signing up with a regular email just to make sure.
 
Amazing tool but I notice there's a slight delay as I checked Apple website and saw one available and I didn't get the alert probably 15 sec later or so

Thanks. That's right. There's definitely a (short) delay because I don't want to hammer Apple's servers and get banned.
 
Worked like a charm for me. I had been trying all week using a service that sends email alerts for availability, but emails just aren't fast enough given the light speed at which these things are out of stock. Text message did the trick - got them on the first try.

Awesome service. Thanks so much!

How can I check if my texts are going through or not

The best way to do it is to send an email to yourself on your text email address. You can also sign up with a non-text email on machookup.com and if you get a regular email notification but not the text something's off.
 
Great tool. Ordered some airpods a minute after I received the text message sent to my phone. Thanks!
 
Can you please add support for Netherlands?

Thanks for building such an amazing service!
