So earlier today I stated that my store (RC Willey) was set to put our Nexus 7 out in the morning but since then we did in fact receive an email stating we can not sell them until further notice. So there you have it.

[Nexus 7 General] blahblahyoutoo:
i don't know what's more agonizing... waiting for the N7 to ship, or my GN to get the JB update, lol.
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Why does Google suck at shipping so much >_> they can ship to stores but not to individual people. That's why the stores get it a month later! What company delays sale and doesn't even give a reason...damn you google! You win this time
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Waiting for the N7 to ship.
[Nexus 7 General] lovenokia:
Both lol
[Nexus 7 General] drpfenderson:
No, I don't think there's any problem except the odd sense of entitlement a lot of people have in this thread. It's one thing to be excited, talk about silly hypotheticals ("Let's raid the UPS hub to get our preorders! LOL"), and act like the typical geeks that we are. It's another to publicly harass a company because you're impatient.

No promises were made to you that were broken. There are many products that are shipped to stores and held long before they are sold. Rental stores typically receive movies 2 weeks before they come out. 2-3 weeks ends on the 18th - you have one week left. If it goes past the end of that window, then you at least have reason to complain if you preordered. But to act out in public like this and harass some poor Google employee with this sort of self-absorbed drivel is just poor taste.

Let's get excited, anticipate, and go back to speculating wildly about building our Android-powered time-machine to leap forward, steal the N7s from ourselves in the future, and bring them back to our awesomely-surprised selves in the present. I think it can be done. We just need 1.21 jiggawatts! :cool:
[Nexus 7 General] Scottatron:
I spit in the general direction of your common sense!
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
This thread really has almost 4000 posts...aw yeah.

It really sucks that we have another week before the real window is closed. I feel like even if they come next week I'll be annoyed and feel like they should have come earlier. Damn you, instant gratification!
[Nexus 7 General] feelinfroggy23:
All i know is that if yin pre ordered before July 1st you better get it before the stores. If that doesnt happen then ill start talking smack about Google. Right now their fine. They havent broken any promises. Yet......
[Nexus 7 General] P06o:
All of that should be read with an outrageous accent (you silly king)

Just called google:

Rep: hello, how may I help you?

Me: why don't I have my tablet yet?!

Rep: because you touch yourself at night *click*

So, I called again:

Rep: hello, how may I help you?

Me: are you the rep that just hung up on me?

Rep: I'm not sure. Did it sound like this? *click*
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
What promises have they given you other than "2-3 weeks" and "mid-July"?
[Nexus 7 General] TedT100:
I was told my june 30th would ship out tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
I don't think stuff will ship tomorrow. I hope so but I think we will have to wait until next week.
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
You should sue them.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
LOL how
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Lmfao please tell me that really happened...
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Now that is a worthy rumor.

Google is intentionally delaying release of the Nexus 7 to step all over the buzz surrounding Amazon's announcement of the Fire 2.

For the life of me, I don't see how Amazon can top the Nexus 7 unless they announce a 10".
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
it didnt he ripped off from some other story
[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
When You Assume...

You are receiving something worth the additional price... Assurance that you will receive the Nexus 7. I'm sure there are going to be a lot of people that try to show up to buy it, that will be told, "SORRY, BUT WE'RE SOLD OUT!" We may not have it, in hand, but we OWN a Nexus 7, the second our credit cards show a completed transaction.

And when did Google ever say the $25 credit is ONLY for those who order it from the play store. And if they did, SO WHAT. I'm glad everyone is getting the credit. How selfish is everyone? That 14 extra dollars guarantee's that likely within days we'll be enjoying our new tablet. I ordered it the second they announced it, because I wanted the tablet, not because I wanted to get it first... Everyone is starting to sound like 10 year olds!
[Nexus 7 General] MMcCraryNJ:
Even if that ended up happening, they wouldn't have broken their promise, because they made no such promise to you.

People....the point of a pre-order isn't to get something early or before anyone else. Often times that DOES happen, like with Verizon. Sometimes you will get it a day or two earlier. But that's not promised or guaranteed anywhere.

The point of a pre-order is to reserve your spot for it. It's meant as a placeholder so that whenever you go to get it, they can't tell you "I'm sorry we are sold out." It's a reserve and nothing more. This is why pre-orders are also referred to as "reserves". By doing it through Google Play, you claimed a device from Google in the first batch that they are getting from Asus. Nothing more, nothing less.

It's not called a "get it early" order. Please understand the difference.
[Nexus 7 General] Kitten Mittens:
So if they are at our local distribution centers does that mean that when it ships, it will be "out for delivery" a.k.a. delivered the same day?
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
The Fire is doomed, at least among those with common sense that won't tolerate a closed ecosystem. And the Fire isn't going to ditch that custom bloatware anytime soon.

Would be a shame if Google is doing that. Seems kind of counter-intuitive, as well.
[Nexus 7 General] mlandau33:
I meant that Google will get hurt the later they deliver the Nexus 7. You have to realize what a behemoth Amazon has become for distribution of anything.
[Nexus 7 General] Tiredad:
If this thread keeps up, and the works of Shakespeare will be re-written for sure.
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Eh, I don't even know if we can call it a pre-order. Yeah we're guaranteed a device, but pre-orders like that are usually for just a few bucks down. We paid for the device in full, and for 2 day shipping to have it ASAP (or as soon as its released). I wouldn't really call it a preorder, more of an express order. I dunno.

Not your typical "pre-order."
[Nexus 7 General] killerbicycle:
unfortunately there are a whole lot of sheep that like to be pinned in a closed eco-system...
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
According to your logic, no one "pre-ordered" through Google Play because no one has been charged yet :eek:

Conversely, I have fully paid off my N7 from Gamestop so does that mean I can have it ASAP? LOL
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Yup, and amazon has great marketing and they really are king of the shipping world...
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Precisely, we kind of just ordered...sucks!
[Nexus 7 General] Psipherious:
But the question is... will you be refunded shipping costs as well?
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
I know, I'm just messing with ya bro

We're all on the same boat. We all just want to get it ASAP, regardless of where we all ordered it from.

I just feel that the sense of entitlement from people because they ordered it directly from Google is outrageous. :D
[Nexus 7 General] platinumandroid:
I don't know why everyone is tripping out,We all agreed to a 2-3 week ship date along with the $199-$249 price tag,Shipping fees & taxes.I personally was told it would ship this week(Only called because my street is being resealed all week in different stages) and I didn't find out until a few days ago. Either way,The week isn't up yet & neither is the 3 week mark,Also to my knowledge no one has been able to walk into a store and buy one so what's the problem?!?! The N7 will ship once Google tells us and freaking out about it isn't going to get it to any of us any sooner
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Semantics are great...

If I write you a check for a television, and you take a month to cash it - would you say I paid or not?

I would certainly think I had.

An authorized charge, that I can't cancel, constitutes paid to me.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Under what stipulation, though?

Unless Google said under the terms that the $14 shipping charge ensures that you get it before anyone else can get their hands on it, no one really has a right to say anything.

The $14 shipping charge is exactly that...the cost to ship it to you. It does not ensure that you get it before anyone else.

I don't get why people are so hung up over this

PS. I LOVE your avatar :D

edit:

completely misunderstood your post. My apologies!
[Nexus 7 General] patalo:
I feel like they are giving us our orders free because its supposed to be here soon. They are just making the non play store people pay. Muahahaha :P
[Nexus 7 General] Psipherious:
I didn't say anything about getting it before or after anyone else. Just curious if you follow those instructions but calling UPS with the tracking no. and telling them to send it back before you even receive it (or if you refuse it at the door, either way) are you refunded this shipping cost.

Wondering if anyone knows. Some places will refund shipping costs, some will not.

If I could walk into a store on Monday and buy a Nexus 7 before mine arrives and I have the option of refusing it for a refund, if I get the refund of everything (including shipping) then I'd probably just do that.

If not then I suppose I would just wait for it to arrive.

[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
TL;DR of this thread: Bunch of geeks preorder new gadget. No release date set. Rumors set in about it shipping in a week. Rumors are probably false, but geeks hold it as truth. Rumors turn out to be false, geeks blame maker of said gadget.
[Nexus 7 General] nicatronTg:
Some of us are here just to see what everyone's on about next. The funny part is the amount of people who are relatively new to XDA that're posting speculation as to when it's coming out and people are treating that as gospel.
[Nexus 7 General] satek:
ha ha I know, I was joking xD No offence taken at all!

It looks like all the retailers have been told to hold stock so that Google can get their pre-orders shipped and avoid a massive ****storm of unhappy fans who purchased directly from Google Play.
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
I just love the tags of this thread, down at the bottom of the screen. From "1and this is crazy..so ship it maybe?" to all the other ones that avoided censorship. halarioussssss.:laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
I'm just looking forward to the PR nightmare some GameStop stores are bound to cause today. Maybe a mini riot from Play store pre-orderers about it will cause google to get their ass in gear.

As far as I'm concerned, if they have enough to ship to 3rd Parties, then they should have shipped to their own pre-orders instead (And I pre-ordered from a 3rd party)
[Nexus 7 General] acidflush:
Frankly I was a little annoyed to read about Staples offering it too. Free shipping, plus I would get 5% back in the form of rewards (due to partner program between my credit card and Staples). But then I noticed they weren't taking any orders, so I don't feel so bad.
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Its going by u.s California. Well today is apparently the big day......well see....
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
This actually makes since..lol....they shipped to retailers so why not us :p dammmittttttt
[Nexus 7 General] jmbillings:
Still nothing here in the UK (no bank charge, no update in Wallet).

Oh, to those that say "stop moaning, it's barely mid-July", that's very true, however if retailers are now receiving stock surely pre-orders should have gone out, irrespective of whether the retailers are actually allowed to sell it? If they hadn't arrived at shops then I don't think everyone would be getting so edgy... :)
[Nexus 7 General] fauxrillz:
Google is such a tease. I received a pending charge on my checking account earlier in the day only to have it removed an hour ago. PORRRRR QUEEEE??? I was anxiously awaiting a tracking number in my email too. *sigh*
[Nexus 7 General] bewA:
same here!

As long as pre-orders are fulfilled prior to retailers releasing i can cope with that!

If retailers sell before pre-orders are fulfilled (certainly those of us that pre-ordered on the day of annoucement) then i'll be raging!
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
I got my galaxy nexus from a vodafone shop on the same day as online delivery. Only that it was Saturday morning at 9am!!

And it was first in Australia than anywhere else in the world.. Maybe New Zealand .. or samoa... :p

So we'll get it first, you'll see. While you all will still be in bed... We get NYE first, we get nexus 7 first... yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa

[Nexus 7 General] jfd107:
That was mine Hahaha
[Nexus 7 General] hyperdude111:
I pre-ordered from PC World because of the free shipping. They initially charged me the full £199 from my debit card and a bank statement said that this was from their "online" branch. I checked again and they had refunded all the money and given me a second charge and this one was from their "Hemel Hempstead" branch quite close to where I live. Again this is only speculation but my guess is they've moved my nexus nearby ready to ship soon.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
You guys have the strangest sense of logic. I hate to refer to the iPad, but...

For everyone that preordered the iPad through Apple, do you expect Apple to fulfill every Apple preorder before they ever send shipment out to B&H, adrorama, J&R, Amazon, etc?

No.

Apple fulfills their first wave of preorders, while at the same time, allows other retailers to fulfill their preorders. With such a high demand for the ipad (probably the same amount for the N7), it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for any retailer to obtain any inventory. Do you know how long it took for ipads to consistently be in stock for purchase at any random time? MONTHS. If that were the case, why even bother having ANY retail stores allow preordering? It doesn't matter from what channel you bought your device from, nor does it matter what you paid. A preorder is a preorder and they should all be treated equally.

Why is everyone complaining about the $14 shipping charge? If that's how much it costs Google to ship the device do you, that's what they'll change. Nowhere did Google stipulate that you are paying this $14 shipping fee to ensure that you are the first ones to get this tablet

You guys are so upset over such trivial things, lol

This sense of elitism because you ordered directly from Google Play vs others that preordered through a retailer is insane
[Nexus 7 General] bewA:
you're right it is trivial how could i be so stupid! i bow to your superior rationale! ;-)
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Can you still access the order on PC Worlds website? Currys hasn't been working for the last few days, if they've cancelled and re-charged it would explain why.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Sorry, I unquoted you because I didn't want to make it seem like it was directed to you <3

it's actually directed to everyone because the sense of elitism is so ridiculous

No offense to any XDA'ers :good:

I just can't understand the sense of entitlement because you ordered from the source vs retailer

I don't think Google ever claimed that if you ordered through them that you are guaranteed to get it before anyone else
