It's still kind of a dick move to do.

When I called on the 12th calling about the price match deal and if they will beat AT&T's the rep I talked to basically said. "Yeah, we can beat AT&T's price, come back next week when the promotion starts and we'll throw an additional $50 to seal the deal. That's a great deal and you definitely should take advantage of that!". Then I come back a week later and am told "oh, well it's a $1 more than AT&T now, so we won't price match it, and now the phone is sold out everywhere so you most likely won't get it until late October."

Well if I knew that maybe I would have just gone to AT&T and not dealt with any of this price match bullshit. I could have a new phone and a $200 credit today. All they are offering is inconvenience for $1, and I didn't know that would happen until it was too late.

If it helps, it looks like only some of the phones have seriously limited availability (I'm guessing just the 6+ at this point.) I had to reorder my phone (64 gig gold 6) on Thursday and I got a tracking number today.

Doesn't change the trade-in situation, but if you want the 4.7" you'll probably get it sooner rather than later.

I ordered on Thursday, got tracking on Saturday, and had my phone at 9 am Monday. It seems like the regular 6s are shipping pretty quickly. Mine is a 64g gold FWIW.
