Guess that's because they have no stock.
Mine was bought sim-free from Apple so I guess it's a case of could not rather than would not ![]() Was the 16GB one I wanted too so now have to order via Apple.com! |

Nope, that article is absolute rubbish.

Why would the Apple shop not sell me one today then?
For SIM free you will need to reserve online (which is not easy when stocks are low as you've already found out) or buy online and just suck up the 2 week wait. (You'd already be half way through the wait time if you'd ordered online when I first suggested it...) |

They are operating a contract only policy for walk-in sales when available stocks are below a certain level.

The reason I held off was there was alot in the local ads and ebay but many were opened or not the right network. I guess I will know better to order via Apple next time.
