Actually, I was originally told that they would be calling me "a day or two before" to set up an appointment. After seeing some comments on this forum, I called them to find out where I was on the list and if people would be called in the order that the pre-orders were placed and was told by this second person "No, you should have gotten an appointment when you made the pre-order." So he let me go ahead and make an appointment then since I wasn't given that option by the guy who I did my pre-order with. Thank God 10:00 was still available or I would have been majorly pissed. Needless to say, there does seem to be some miscommunication at BB about how this is all supposed to work so I would contact the Chelsea store if I were you and see if things may have changed.

Preordered at the Sunnyside, Queens RS. I called yesterday to get a 6:30am appointment. However I might pick it up from another RS close to my house. Went there today and the associate said she would hold one for me if I came in at 6am. So I would rather roll out of bed early and drive a short distance than go to the one I originally preordered close to my job.
