How the numbers are measured
Why does apple.com show “currently unavailable” at every store?
A restock is a blip, not a state: 17 stores × 8 configurations makes 136 possible listings in Italy, and right now 0 stores list any iPhone Duo at all.
- Past 24 hours: 11 confirmed restocks at 5 stores in Italy
- Each was on apple.com for a minute or two
- Seeing “unavailable everywhere” on day four or day fourteen does not mean Apple has stopped
Reddit's iPhone Duo restock theories, checked against the log
Much of the advice in r/applestore and r/iphone is honest, based on one store, and out of date by the next day; below are the four claims that come up most, tested against 135 confirmed restocks in Italy.
| Claim | What the log shows |
|---|---|
| “Stores restock overnight — check at 3 AM.” | 1% of restocks came between midnight and 6 AM local time, against 62% between 8–10 AM. |
| “Apple only restocks on one weekday.” | Restocks came on 5 of 6 tracked days; we name a busiest weekday after 14 days of data. |
| “Call the store and ask when the truck comes.” | There is no published restock schedule; pickup stock is released online, and the store sees it at the same moment everyone else does. |
| “If it says unavailable, it's sold out for good.” | 11 confirmed restocks at 5 stores in the last 24 hours prove otherwise, and each went back to “unavailable” within minutes. |
- Rumours fill the gap when there is no data; this page is the data, and reading it is free
- Reddit gets one thing right: the checkout prep, signed in with Apple Pay set (our 20-second version)
What counts as a restock on RestockWire?
A restock is a configuration appearing for in-store pickup on apple.com at a store that did not list it, confirmed by two matching checks.
- Stores with an alert: every 5 seconds; every Apple Store in Italy: every 15 seconds
- Published intervals of other trackers: 8 seconds to 15 minutes; we compare only what they publish
- A first “available” is re-checked about a second later before it counts
- A vanished listing is confirmed on the following round
- A store's first sighting, a failed request, a timeout: never a restock and never “out of stock”
- All hours and dates are in each store's local time; a “wave” is the same half hour across zones
- Reports from other trackers get labelled rows of their own and are left out of every total
- These tables refresh roughly every five minutes; the restock log is live

Common questions
Which hours bring iPhone Duo restocks in Italy?
8–10 AM store local time carried 62% of the 135 confirmed restocks since November 2, 2026, and 8 AM to noon carried 84%. There is no official schedule; this is the pattern RestockWire observes, refreshed roughly every five minutes.
Do iPhone Duo restocks happen on weekends in Italy?
They do: 1 restock of 135 (1%) fell on a Saturday or Sunday. We name a busiest weekday only once the data covers 14 days; it covers 6 so far.
When should I start watching apple.com?
By hand, have apple.com open with pickup selected from 8 AM local time; that two-hour window holds 62% of restocks. Then the clock runs fast: the median restock was gone within 706 seconds, which is why an alert on the 5-second wire (how alerts work) beats any amount of refreshing.
Why is the iPhone Duo “unavailable” at every Apple Store?
Restocks are brief: of the 135 sold-out restocks measured in Italy, 7% were gone inside 2 minutes and 61% inside 20. At this moment 0 of 17 stores list one, so most of the time apple.com truthfully says “unavailable”, even on days with dozens of restocks (what “unavailable” means).
Can I get a notification when my Apple Store gets the iPhone Duo back?
Yes: an alert on that store with your exact storage and colour moves it to the 5-second wire; once a restock is confirmed, your phone has it within about 3 seconds (set up an alert; how it works).
