BB has to do it the same way as sprint stores, first come first serve. They r still using the preorder but when u preordered does not matter. They do however have separate preorder list. 1st preorder and 2nd preorder.

the morale of this story being "a bird in the hand beats two in the bush", meaning you should've had the preorder in hand before selling your phone. I have a instinct I could sell you :).

The woman rep said "no problem, you can come in and pre-order it."

So, needing the money, but planning on getting it the day it came out on the 4th, I sold my Touch Pro2 and went up to Best Buy, only to be told every store was sold out of pre-orders and I would have to wait until the 10th.

So, now I'm phoneless. For ten days. And now I get my phone 6 days late.

Yay.:pale:

Best Buy in the Woodlands. For all of you who don't understand, I do have a s**tty old back-up... And I asked her if there was going to be any problems on getting my preorder on the 4th. The next day they said all their people know about the oversale of pre-orders, and someone should have told me. The manager put me on first place on the hold list, but who would cancel on the 4th after putting $50 down.

So today I called them to see if I could schedule my time and the lady tells me that I'll need to come in on the 4th and schedule the time then come back at the designated time. This seems to be about the dumbest procedure I might have ever heard. I do know that if I go there I'm only going there once and they'll be sorting out my details at that time. The reason they told me that they would be scheduling appointments in the first place was to control the chaos and disorder. I guess they changed their mind and have opted for the chaos and disorder route. I'm hoping that when the manager calls me back he will tell me that I was misinformed on my call-in and in fact they are going to be scheduling appointments and can go ahead and give me my slot at this time, bright and early naturally.
