Ouch!
I managed to order it within five minutes of it going on sale, but will have to wait until 7-10 October for delivery ... that's pretty shocking.

It's really limited stock at the moment.
I've seen the retail stock files for iPhone 5s for both Three and EE and the stock is very very low. Even in flagship stores. Much lower compared to the 5 last year.
O2 won't have any stock in store for 5s at all.
The iPhone 5c stock is double or even triple the amount in a lot of stores.
I don't know what the queues are like in Glasgow but there's no way I'd be waiting outside til 8am on a night like this, if stock is really *that* low!
I did plan to go to an Apple Store to try my luck but i doubt i will given these stock levels just glad i was able to order one online.
Which iPhone did everyone go for?
Ordered myself the black 16gb
I don't really mind the shipping delay. It gives me something to look forward to in a couple of weeks.
I went to Basingstoke this morning, got there at 7:25am and about 200 (max) people queuing. By 7:45am the Apple blue shirt guys were saying "no 5s's at all" so about 40% of the queue left!!
Ordered online at 8:12 (when I got home) and 7-10 days - black/space grey/64gb.
The online store now showing a rather imprecise "October" for despatch on all 5S varieties. Assuming the previous "7-10 days" is still accurate, I'm glad I ordered soon after midnight now; my plan had been to wait for my new 0% credit card and pay off over 15 months, but I'm doing a balance transfer (on the same terms + small fee) instead.
Would be fine for the 5c but the 5s has a bigger button/scanner so if that's what you're ordering, no.
