Large queues at London Apple Store?

I have a friend in London and made an appointment for me a iphone 4 received mail pickup and spent two days in a row 2:00 to pick up the phone and all that failed due to very long queues at the Apple Store London. Is this true or just my friend tricked me and try to make my surprise when over two days to reach me?

Intel, iOS 4, Nothing

I am sorry - I was rude. It might be better if the phone was ordered online? But if your friend is on the waiting list, should she not be told when the phone is available?

Your English is VERY much better than my Romanian!

I was there just before opening time today and there were about 50 people queuing. Ittook about 40 mins to be served, however, by the time I left there was a queue out of the door and down the street probably 100-200'people which would likely mean a 2hr+ wait. Hope this helps.
