Cause it seems that if the stores sell out on Friday night, they're not going to be restocked until the following Monday. :frown:

Can someone confirm/deny?

Didn't UPS stop Saturday deliveries a while back?

I know fedex and DHL do saturday deliveries.

Not sure about UPS, I suspect they do in some capacity.

Ok, it sounds like Saturday can be a backup plan. Thx all.

We still get Saturday deliveries with UPS. I can't see how they will get new orders in time if they don't start selling till 6pm. Our last UPS pick up is at 6pm.

I think the "no sales until 6pm" bit only applies for Friday, the 29th. Should be no time restrictions after that.

I am pretty sure that UPS does do saturday delivery, it just costs extra.

From ups.com:

For time-critical shipments, UPS offers the convenience of Saturday Delivery.

Our local AT&T store told me that there was going to be a 'truck' restocking Iphones to stores in our area that needed them both Friday and Saturday....interesting idea if true!

The Apple store near me said they WILL have enouh to meet demand...makes me think that they have a truck or warehouse with stock ready to go when needed.
