  1. Watch only the nearest store in Illinois
    Alert every Illinois store you could reach in 20 minutes
    Each store restocks on its own; the next one is as likely to be a town over.
  2. Drive over when a store 'usually' restocks
    Reserve on apple.com the second the alert lands, then drive
    A pickup reservation holds the phone; walk-in stock for the Duo is rare.

  • That is why a page you reload by hand almost always shows “unavailable”: what the status means
  • Restock by restock, every store in Illinois: the sell-out times page
How this is measured

How does PickupChecker count a restock?

A restock here is apple.com flipping a configuration from “currently unavailable” to available for pickup at one of the 8 stores in Illinois, seen by two of our checks in a row.

  • Every Apple Store in Illinois every 15 seconds; the stores alerts point at every 5
  • A first “available” is asked again about a second later before it counts
  • A listing that disappears is confirmed on the next round
  • The first sighting of a store, a failed or timed-out request: never a restock, never “out of stock”
  • Hours and dates in each store's local time (Central time throughout Illinois)
  • Only PickupChecker's own observations enter these numbers; the national page shows other trackers' launch-week reports as separate rows
  • Updated about every five minutes; the restock log itself is live

You are welcome to quote these numbers with a link to this page; PickupChecker is independent and not affiliated with Apple, and reads the same pickup availability anyone can see on apple.com, just far more often.
