44$? I paid 14 for shipping and sales tax like I would if I bought it at GS..?? I'm not seeing the 44$ your talking about

Count me among the lucky people that got one at Sams Club. I preordered and will be refusing shipment out of principal. Google needs to learn a lesson and get their **** together on the play store. Things like this make them seem like amateurs. They need to have better communication with their loyal customers instead of stringing them along. Even if they werent exactly sure when it was shipping they could have given some sort of update. To those Tampa Bay area readers, the Sams Club in Tampa had two left at 11. I went to the Pinellas Park one, which is nearby, and they sold out of the five they had yesterday and had one returned because of the issue with the side coming up due to the adhesion or whatever. I also saw one returned at the Sams Club in Tampa but didnt know why.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
Jeez, I go to bed and this thread goes to hell. Yesterday when I was at work everyone was discussing when it will ship and if they will hit their mid July target. It looks like they did. Shouldn't the discussion be over? What happened in 200 pages overnight?
[Nexus 7 General] dandavis35:
Yep me too. 16gb case ordered on 27@at 11:34 am. Still nothing. Similar b.s. when I called.

Okay, this is stupid. I ordered on the 27th. I live in California and I did not receive any email nor has my wallet changed status.
[Nexus 7 General] x4sper:
I can understand why people are upset about not having theirs before stores did but its Googles first shot at a tablet launch and messed it up. So what at least Google isn't suing everything that makes phone calls and resembles a smartphone.

I realize I shouldn't feed a troll, but since the poster's misuse indicates that he seems not to understand the definition of the word "racist", let me suggest a few terms that are appropriate descriptors of revmra's prior utterance:

nationalistic

jingoistic

chauvinistic

provincial

xenophobic

Soldier, pick one (and feel free to use a dictionary if you haven't heard some of the terms before)...

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

UPS cant find my tracking number within it's system, i assume the label will be created and sent on its way monday, and reach me tues/wed?

:(
[Nexus 7 General] EVO DL:
packagetracker shows me that that package was "Shipped on:	Monday, July 9, 2012", but the "Scheduled for: " line is empty.

Can you show a screen shot of UPS? Where is your package originated from? Origin scan?
[Nexus 7 General] Balthazar B:
Neither statement can be considered true on the basis of the evidence...
[Nexus 7 General] jt.one:
i ordered a 16GB but no case, also on the 28th.

check your playstore orders, google wallet, email, and bank account.

the playstore pushed my n7 order to the top of my apps&order list on 7/13 around 4pm EST and then i saw my bank account charged a few hours later then which my email and google wallet was finally updated lastly.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
The exact same thing is happening to me. Ordered on the 27th.
[Nexus 7 General] jsgiv:
I've seen the comments regarding the "defective units".

There's basically 3 issues

- dead pixel(s)

- raised screen on the left side of the unit

- light bleeding around the edges of the screen

Mine is from GS, doesn't have any dead pixels (at least from a quick dead pixel checker test), doesn't have the raised screen issue (though if I run my fingernail along the right side and then the left side I notice a very slight difference - basically the right side of the screen sits a little lower than the left - which is flush with the edge/frame. But this is really a huge nitpick :P), and lastly, it has some screen bleeding issues on the left. This isnt noticeable during use at all and, by comparison, my iPad 2 has worse light bleeding around the edges.

Overall - very solid build quality - imagine holding an iPad with a soft touch backing and you'll get the idea.

[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Wrong. As the EMail from Google clearly states, it can take 24 hours for UPS to update their computers.

Tracking should be valid later today or tomorrow. Then you will have a good estimate on delivery.
[Nexus 7 General] shakinginboots:
Me too :(. I thought we'd be less screwed since we're the closest to Google HQ. But noooope.
[Nexus 7 General] Hakizi:
I'm so sad that mine hasn't even been picked up by UPS yet. Tuesday it is then. And I was so excited to get my tracking number, too.

Wow we are nearing 1M views, well only 50k away. And the good thing is we have a weekend to wait and see who gets their beloved shipped email on Monday. I know for a fact we still have the RoW outside of the US mostly waiting for that beloved email and most of the Globe who ordered accessories with their Nexus 7 still awaiting that Shipped email. Me, I got nothing on email yet but I am just waiting for my secondary device at this point as I was one of the lucky 4 people that went to the Hiram, GA Samsclub location (only Sams in a 15-20 mile radius) and the first to walk out of Sams with one yesterday as I informed them that they were late to the game and the rest of Sams Club all over the US were already selling.

[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Quick question on reported defects:

One is that the glue on the left edge of the case is lifting up.

What the heck is that about - we know from the IFixit teardown glue is not used, just clips.

It is the IPad that uses glue...
[Nexus 7 General] findmike:
Yeah, it's like there's this fundamental difference in perspective that exists between us - my plan was built on the information available when I pre-ordered - the item will ship with 2 day shipping two to three weeks after I ordered it. There was nothing about retail partners getting it sooner or later. Nothing about me getting it first. Nothing about compensation for them doing exactly what they promised to do.

It just seems a bit weird to be talking compensation and apologizes for a company doing exactly what they said they would since there are plenty that don't.
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
Someone said they applied a lot of force to get the screen to "clip" back on with a loud snap. He said that it also fixed the light bleed after that. But this could have just been him breaking something so be careful if you want to try it.
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
Not only RoW, US here and I have no communication at all!

Don't forget there are still us in the US that ordered accessories that have no communication whatsoever from Google. I am in Dallas, GA and ordered as seen below with NOTHING yet. This device has cost me SOOOO much $$ so far, I know you will all think I am an idiot but I am admittedly a Techy Addict.

SPENT: $302.08 on Preorder Nexus 7 + Case, $40 on My Choice UPS membership, $40 to renew my Sams Club membership, $249 Nexus 7 at Sams, $20.00 for the 2 year warranty, and $40 on 2 XO skins screen protectors TOTAL: $690 on a $249 device and I LOVE it. I am not being irresponsible as I make a good living and do not spend frivolously as this except on device launches (new Apple iPhone/iPad, new Google Nexus phone/tablet, new Windows Surface tablet, etc etc).

Only thing I would quibble on is I really see no benefit to the $40 My Choice membership. The free My UPS gives everything you need.

Well two screen protectors only if you keep both tablets, and then it is $690 for $498 in tablets

Bad picture as taken with Apple Photobooth on Macbook pro but no lift or separation for me at all. Probably just a defect on that one device.

Mmm.. So UPS doesn't have an Origin Scan yet. How can they give you a scheduled delivery date when they don't have an Origin Scan??? Something isn't right there.
[Nexus 7 General] Balthazar B:
It may have been picked up by UPS already, but (as many have noted) they're extremely slow getting information into their system (until the item is on a truck for delivery).

[Nexus 7 General] heat361:
For those of you COMPLAINING about Google it was not their fault that retail stores started selling the n7. Asus is the one who was responsible for shipping out the n7, they shipped to Google for the play store orders and wrongfully shipped to retailers. While Asus was shipping to retailers Google was working to ship all play store orders at the same time. Google tried to take control of the problem by stopping the retailers from selling, but apparently they had a mind of their own and decided to sell them.

Funny you say that, I have been wondering what to do with the spare. Do I keep it in case I need one or to have one for the car and one for the house? Do I sell it and make my money back (thats boring and a lot of trouble for no profit)? Do I give it away as a gift?

Dilema, hmmmmm......
[Nexus 7 General] Land Master:
For what it's worth .....Sam's Club seems to be the best option for those of you that want one over the weekend. After reading of many people getting one there I decided to give it a shot. That was after going to GameStop, Office Depot, Office Max and Staples yesterday.

I was lucky and if you are in the Denver area, the Highlands Ranch store seems to have at least one left. The guy told me their stock showed 4 but he only saw one one left on the rack after retrieving mine. There is no product display but if you go to the area where the tablets are you might see a stack of pick-tickets laying on the table. Take one to the register and keep your fingers crossed.This was my experience and I wish anyone trying good luck.

PS. I posted last night that I did in fact receive a shipping email from Google. Tracking information has still not updated and my credit card is still not showing a charge. 16GB version, No Case, Ordered 7/2/12, Colorado US.
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
Yes it was not my best moment of clarity. The thought was that many were saying with My Choice UPS membership you need no tracking number. You sign up and provide name, address, etc and if any package is registered to be sent to you it will show up before the tracking email is sent. SO I thought maybe as soon as they entered my info it may pop up there before they emailed me??? Nope not so much as I have seen NOTHING!!! Craziness, I almost wonder if they lost my order or something went wrong with it. But it still shows as complete on my Google Wallet which I assume would be rejected, or incomplete if something went wrong?!?!?!?! If no email by Wednesday next week Ill call and verify.
[Nexus 7 General] jsgiv:

[Nexus 7 General] noneabove:

[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
Honestly I have received my package via UPS before it ever left the Originating City. Their tracking is good for 2 things, confirming you have a package being shipped and the guesstimate delivery date they provide. Logistics my arse.
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Ouch. Hope it comes in soon for you. I've heard that the case may have something to do with it, but I'm not sure. I've heard of people that ordered on the 2nd that got confirmation emails..seems a little strange haha.
[Nexus 7 General] chisaki:
My status update

Ordered 16GB on 28 June

My location San Diego CA

eMail received today at 2:18AM Shipped

Google Wallet updated

CC charge still pending

UPS tracking "UPS cannot locate your shipment...."

I believe my tablet has been prepared for shipment and tracking # was assigned by Google but has not been picked up by UPS. I believe it will be picked up by UPS Monday and with 2 day shipping I should receive it on Wednesday.
[Nexus 7 General] andTab:
Got the shipping email early Saturday morning.

Shipping to Los Angeles. Ordered on July 2nd, 16GB version with no accessories.

mmmmh. To accept or return to teach Google a lesson?
[Nexus 7 General] HOLLA575:
Google made it seem that it would ONLY be available at Google Play. Then they go ahead and ship to third party retailers before even fulfilling their own orders. You can try and justify Googles behavior any way you like, but the fact of the matter is that they ****ed up royally and better do something for their customers to make it up.
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
LOL my bad, thats cool. Some of my friends who are rolling in the $60k cars and $500k houses say DINK is how they get the things they do, Dual Income No Kids.....lol. Never thought of it that way before 2 x $60k is $120k and some serious $$ to spend! I am jealous as hell.

Now back to your regularly scheduled program, GIVE ME MY NEXUS 7 SHIPMENT EMAIL!!!!

USA GA Nexus 16G plus case ordered June 27 and no email yet? C'mon at least acknowledge my existence with an email Google!

Uhhh UPS My Choice is free... At least to get tracking numbers early.
[Nexus 7 General] scooter217:
12 hours later after getting my tracking number and it is still saying "UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request.". Oh well, I guess give it until Sunday. Is everyone elses tracking numbers in the system?
[Nexus 7 General] rlh445:
God, you 'mid-July' people are freakin' nuts. MID-JULY ISN'T A DATE, IT'S A BROAD SPECTRUM OF DATES. They NEVER gave a specific street date like every other hot device ever released. I never had to 'guesstimate' when I'd be able to pick up my 360. I never had to 'guesstimate' when my Wii would be available. I KNEW, BECAUSE THE COMPANY THAT RELEASED THEM TOLD US IN ADVANCE. You guys can be happy getting shafted all you want, but at least be honest with yourselves and this thread about the way Google went about letting us know what was going on. Just because your plumber gives you the awkward time frame of, 'Between the hours of 1pm and 6pm' and then shows up right at 6pm doesn't mean I should be happy about it. You ask me to clear my schedule for an entire five hours and waste the ENTIRE FIVE HOURS..nobody is gonna be happy about that. This is the same. Hey though, if you're happy about it good for you! You're probably the same people who bought Bethesda's horse armor.
[Nexus 7 General] chisaki:
Mine does not. I don't think tracking will be updated until UPS actually picks up package from Google, which will likely happen Monday.
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
Same thing. Ordered 8GB on 7/7/12, received a tracking number at 2am PST, still no charge on credit card, and order has moved up in Google Play / Wallet. Tracking is still "UPS could not locate the shipment details..."
[Nexus 7 General] Hero_Guy:
So I ordered my 16GB nexus 7 yesterday around 12:30 PST. An hour later I was charged and received an email that said I won't be charged until it has shipped, yeti was already charged and haven't gotten another email with my tracking number. Is that normal?
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
I think this is actually incorrect but I could be wrong. My Hypothesis is this (based on this massive Forum):

Google intended a July 9 ship of Pre-Orders and July 11 receipt of pre-order DATA SOURCE: Multiple reports here of UPS shipment email stating the same Packing slip printed on July 9 expected delivery July 11 and they received their shipping email yesterday or today :-)

Google authorized ASUS to ship Nexus 7's to Retail establishments for receipt on July 12 (the day after we received our Pre-Ordered Nexus 7) DATA SOURCE: Most B&M received shipments on the 12th then were told by Corporate not to display or sell, reported both here and at various Android Blogs across the web

Something happened and Google BLOCKED all shipments on July 9, then on July 12 informed B&M DO NOT DISPLAY or SELL. But ignorant B&M employees and those that just didn't care sold anyway and the B&M ban was lifted mid-day yesterday when Google finally started shipping our Pre-Orders. Result is a black eye for Google.
[Nexus 7 General] Random Select:
Ordered not too long after the keynote was done and I still haven't received any shipping confirmation. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] Exino:
I might as well add to the largest thread of all time: Ordered on the 29th, no shipping, or charge, or any other information. Looks like I'll be waiting awhile yet.
[Nexus 7 General] wchen45:
my UPS site also says "UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later." Maybe UPS really isnt going to start shipping until Monday?
[Nexus 7 General] neonghost:
How did they make it seem like that? I never got that impression.

I got my shipping notice at about 1am mountain. I'm excited to get my hands on it, but I don't feel cheated that I could have spent all day driving around trying to find one in stock in a brick and mortar. You know there are people in those places right? /shudder
[Nexus 7 General] kboxvegas:
Yes this whole fiasco was Googles fault, Asus was only responsible for making and delivering the product which they did on time. It was Googles launch and they absolutely failed the preorder people , poor planning, poor communication, and a poor response to the issue. I ordered a 16gb (US no case) 15 mins into the preorder on the first day. I didn't get an update until 2am this morning. To bad I picked up my tablet at Sam's club yesterday at 4pm. Love the tablet but the launch was an epic failure.
[Nexus 7 General] Sandman2749:
I have a VERY bad feeling that Canada is getting the shaft somehow. When I called Google Canada over a week ago ( took a few tries as nobody was answering) the guy told me to call the generic US Play store #. If Google Canada is supposed to be the "supplier", why wouldn't they field the calls?

My bet is that pre order stock will be shipped in bulk to Canada and then reshipped across the country. That's at least a 1 week process folks. Just a guess and I hope I'm wrong.
