Where do you still have a chance?

At the bottom of the table: Apple Churchill Square kept a typical restock for 2 min 36 s. Longer listings leave more time to check out.

What does a fast store mean for you?

A median of 45 s leaves no time to browse: have the configuration in your bag and Apple Pay ready.

  • Add a slower store nearby to your alert: two stores double your chances.
  • Speed reflects demand around the store, not how much stock arrives.

How is the ranking built?

Listing time: from a confirmed restock to the next confirmed sell-out of the same configuration at the same store, iPhone Duo only, last 14 days.

  • **Ranked stores:** 5 or more timed restocks; fewer would let one lucky restock decide.
  • **Bounds:** times are upper bounds to the next check (5 to 15 seconds apart).
