I've always been curious about this. I don't own an iphone and not big on the hype, but are you telling me that if they go later in the day or the next day everything is sold out?

They usually don't meet demand on opening day. It's actually part of apples marketing strategy. Usually more "limited" items are seen as cool.
Granted about a month from now everyone will have their iPhone 6 but for the next couple weeks a select few (4 million) will have bragging rights.
I low key need those 6+ to start rolling in my 4s is going to ****. Yesterday the power button broke so it's now super hard to put my phone in standby etc. I'mma wait that month tho I've had 2 phones for a year now anyway

you guys are wylin. overhyping this for no reason at all.
everything that's been said regarding availability about the 6+, and even the 6, has been said about the past two iphone releases. and for the past two iphone releases I've been able to get my phone at the very beginning of October by walking into the store or reserving one for pickup on the apple website, even the gold 5s last year. I don't know why some people choose to camp out on/before release day with a slim chance of getting their phone of choice when they can just wait a little.
these phones will not be out of stock for as long as people worry them to be.
resellers, I hope you get dirt in return for the work you put into getting one of these.
but why? if they don't get strongarmed for their spot, then they're actually pretty smart. but if they do, then it is their fault, really.

What insurance did you get? You buy it at the same time you get your phone?
I had my 4 for 4 years now with no insurance, no case. That was while I was in college constantly drunk also. It's a miracle it's held up. I think I want insurance on this once just to be safe. Cases are sooo wack :x :x :x
Gonna go to georgetown store when I get out of work to get this thing

I'm not upgrading until iOS 8 gets jailbroken. Stock iOS pisses me off.

Not that it's a big deal but..........you would think with a new phone design and size a new different packaging boxing would have happened

I'm just glad they didn't change the charging port on the phone. Only time I hold the box is when I first get it anyway.

Both are bad, but pentagon city will be the worst. A lot of people will slide down their on the metro throughout the day.
