I rang the store and was told very small chance I'd get my reservation before the allotted time.
Anyone willing to swap any slots before 11 with me ?
My reservation is for a 64GB space grey 6 between 11 and 12.

I reserved both my iphone 4 and 5 for store pick up on launch day and both times there was very little Q time and I was out within 15-20min hope it's the same this time.
Hopeing most of the people who have the 10-11 slots will be sorted by 1030-1045 as even 15min early would be fantastic for me

Didn't think thre was any reservations for the 5. I bought my 5 up there too. Apple haven't done a reservation process since the 4.

My collection time is 8pm, If there is going to be 2 queues, what time do you think I should aim to be there, would prefer to get out ASAP as I have to drive back to limerick.

They didn't do it for the 5. It was a que up and first come first served in Belfast Apple Store.
The last reservation system Apple done was for the 4.

By that time the main first come first served ques will be gone.

Hope the queues were like last year :-)

Anyone heard what kinda supply's the store will have on launch day? So many rumours about the 6plus in short supply and honestly can't think of a worse disappointment then travelling back to dublin without one after queuing all night

Well if I woke up in the morning and my testicles were missing I'd probably be a teeny bit more disappointed

I wouldn't jump the que in front of people just incase they get a bit miffed. Maybe hang around and when it's your turn to go in with the tokens meet each other inside the store. The sales guy will be ok processing the order in two separate transactions.

Remember the store is still open as normal, so people can walk in as normal and purchase other goods.

Very generous of you mate but is it not a case of one per customer?

Yes 100%. You couldn't reserve an iPhone 5 on launch day in September 2012 in the Apple Store. It was a first come first served basis up there.

I've bought every one of my iPhone's up there, the 4 was the only one which could be reserved in the same fashion as the 6.

BTW, your link is for the pre order for delivery, not for reserve and collect in person.

Not sure if relevant to this thread or not, but...

I wanted to order iphone online and have it delivered, but because I read so many potential problems with it (yellowish screen, not working home button, scratches etc) and such a long wait, I decided to to reserve online and pick it up in Belfast.

I was reserving one last week every day, without luck (Black 32 gb) so I decided a different strategy and reserved a white 32 gb on this Wednesday and to my astonishment, I got a confirmation email from them the same night.
I picked it up yesterday, no problems with it so far.

Just to let you know, if someone wants one and does not mind picking up from Belfast.

Ideally you could have the order online through apple and cancel it, if you are lucky enough to get the reservation.

Im not sure when it was launched but my receipt is dated 5th Oct 2012 and i know i reserved it for store pick up along with a friend who got one as well.

Belfast run 19th
