All colors except Sky Blue were available for pickup at multiple Bay Area, CA locations at around 5am local. Looks like they’re gone now.
Got a tip for us?

Nothing online ..... called into Regent Street about an hour ago and they said they had none so far but expected to have a small delivery anytime.
Oh, so they are expecting some today? Might call down there in the evening after work.....
Nothing showed up in Minneapolis/St. Paul today. Even the Mall of America shows nothing.
If you are looking for them, it appears B&H is about to get some. They notified me today they are taking pre-orders and they have already charged my credit card.

5:45am had any option I wanted for pickup (Los Angeles) by 8am most were sold out and every store within 30 miles.
I thought about ordering from att because they had every colors in stock. Then I saw the $55 restocking fee. Went for the silver from apple for pick up today ?
Most stores in the NYC area had silver and SS for store pickup that went live just before 8 this morning. I snagged two sets, one for me and one for the fiancée as a last-minute Christmas gift. Picked up at Apple WTC this AM, went without a hitch!
No other colors were available in the city but Apple at Short Hills Mall in NJ had the pink in stock for a while.
Now...do I give it to her today or wait ten days? She was devastated they were backordered until March when the first impression videos hit the web and she wanted a pair..

I ordered from AT&T also. Seeing that the thing is allowing all kinds of orders, I expect cancellations to be coming. They have had issues before.
I made the mistake of watching a YouTube review the other night on TV in front of her, and she was like, 'why would anyone pay that much for headphones?!' I was impressed that she didn't glare at me. Of course she didn't understand my AirPods pros either lol
London update: To the surprise of everyone there, Apple Bentall Centre in Kingston had some in space grey and silver. Picked up Space Grey. No appointment. No queue. The items were run down to me, paid for and out within a few minutes. It was the first pair this particular Apple Specialist had sold today.
They ran out of sky blue, very little stock of other colours except space grey and silver. Grab them while you can!
I rang up in the afternoon (third attempt, so don’t give up) and was put through to the Bentall Centre store, managed to reserve a pair (they had all five colours). Now waiting in the queue to collect. Was told that there’s stock in Watford as well, for those in the Greater London Area.
Point is: they’re out there, so don’t give up.
Just back from the Metro Centre Gateshead UK and they still have all colours in (limited numbers)
For anyone still looking, check out regional stores that others may not think about.
For example, “Nebraska Furniture Mart” appears to have every color still in stock.

Got my SG there a few hours earlier - considered the blue but they didn’t have any on display and didn’t want to risk it.
