Just checking to see if other stores have been seeing their phone stock dwindle over the past couple of weeks. We are almost out of certain iPhones in our store and we haven't been getting any in. Reps are concerned that they won't be able to hit their numbers if they don't have any phones to sell. Has their been any talk among higher ups of potential quota relief if the inventory shortage continues? Seems unfair to set high quota goals if we don't have phones to sell.

Apple rep was in the other day and said Foxconn is opening factories again and will begin fulfilling orders to the carriers soon. Priority goes to back order fulfillment first then stores will receive inventory as those orders are met
Stop complaining we have plenty of hums to sell
Dont you find it funny that we are out of stock on devices? The system crashes? A multibillion company cant keep stock or systems up and running. If you take that time systems are down multiply it by stores not being able to sell devices (not paying reps) the company is saving a lot of money.
Samsung reporting issues now
What's hilarious no one is talking about the problem of no iPhone's to sell?
Had at least 10 people walk just in last 2 days as we are out of pro and pro Maxx, yet Best buy up the road has them, as does the Target store and the apple store.
The coronavirus is definitely causing inventory issues as iPhones are made in China. iPhone 8's are not expected to come in stock until late March.
Quantities of several devices not sufficient for ISPU. Down from 75 as a store last month to 25 this month. Guess they'll just have them shipped.
It’s gotten bad, starting to wonder how our import products hurt us directly with handling these products
Pro and Pro Max have been out of my store for weeks. Our area is down 1300+ adds yoy.
Omg are you guys serious right now lol
Yes we are also low. We were laughed at when we brought up any sort of relief. They don’t care.
Sell what you have. Your favorite phone in the store just became the phone you have in stock!
Verizon said quota is quota, low inventory is your problem not Verizon’s.
