As far as I can tell those people ordered cases.

I think Google just forgot the 5th existed.

I can't believe nobody has made a "Hitler reacts to the release of the N7" yet.
[Nexus 7 General] anuraj1:
Pre-ordered on the 27th during the keynote, UPS tracking says it had an origin scan in KY this morning at 10:10 AM, but my fiancee just texted me that she signed for a package from Google just now... I can't wait to get home!

EDIT: AGH, false alarm, she ordered some book or something. :(
[Nexus 7 General] srh.pres.usx:
Same here... :good:

Hahah now that's an awesome idea lol
[Nexus 7 General] Logan_M:
Anyone in Canada get theirs yet?

I had an attempted delivery today, but I don't know who from
[Nexus 7 General] jeepinmike:
I guess that is the one thing that makes me feel a little better about any delay, and that is if there really was an issue with some of the units, and google/Asus did swap them out, that at least I will be getting a unit without known issues. Which it appears is what is happening to the folks who ran out an bought units at B&M stores that may or may not have been released against google's direction.
[Nexus 7 General] Stromos:
What app is that?
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
Agh! Don't get my hopes up!
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
You know, if you zoom in far enough on Flight Tracker you can actually see the plane moving. I bet they get their feed from the FAA.

" I don't like it when they leave packages just sitting at my doorstep."

You think that's bad, my doorstep is a NYC sidewalk.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
No worries here, it's rural and has hardly any crime. If I lived in a big city though I would not want it to be left either.
[Nexus 7 General] c4v3man:
If anything, early Pre-orders would get the screwed up devices, considering Google's actions thus far. That being said, it's unlikely that there's an issue with production units.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Wait a minute.

Are you the guy from dslreports lol just realized now?
[Nexus 7 General] SSK_:
Yeah, people who bought it from retail stores.

[Nexus 7 General] c4v3man:
If you have an old Android phone lying around, just install IP Webcam on it from the market, forward a port on your router/firewall, and watch your doorstep from your phone/web browser. That way you know exactly when they show up...
[Nexus 7 General] 18t:
my original order is shipping out of Louisville, Kentucky. set to arrive at my doorstep on tuesday afternoon.

16gb 6/28/12
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
No, other than a few from NCIX and Canada Computers.

Several Canadians have reported CC charges, and a "move to the top" (?) in Google Wallet, but no shipping emails, AFAICT.

I have nothing, but can't see CC charges before July 12.

8 GB, no accessories, ordered July 27 6:30 PM EDT. They ignore my 2 emails July 9 and 12.

Someone said they may appear in some Canadian stores tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] munimisu:
Which retail store is selling it? All I can find are for preorder. Thanks in advance. I will probably go and buy tonight.
[Nexus 7 General] mygoogletablet:
Nothing here, ordered 4th July, UK via the Play store, no email or anything as yet. Shame their isn't google stores like apple stores so that we could all go and camp out and dress up and such. Actually its a good thing in hindsight.
[Nexus 7 General] kirbfucius:
I bought mine at Sam's Club. If you don't have a membership they have a 10% upcharge for the purchase which is about the same as what you paid for shipping. Alternatively, your Sam's Club may offer trial memberships for cheap or free.
[Nexus 7 General] bigfatron:
Dear god, no. No chance you'd ever get me queueing up outside a shop for a product launch unless those that did got it for free or something.
[Nexus 7 General] cornelious2:
I was going to attempt it earlier actually, but determined it to be a real PITA to make all the text fit coherently in a way that expressed the whole situation properly.
[Nexus 7 General] Dirtbound:
I ordered on Jun 27th...

16GB W/ Cover...

Just checked my account on Google Wallet and they show Jul 16th as the order date for both the Nexus 7 and the Cover... There is also a $300+ pending charge on my credit card.

I hope this means it's shipping today/this week.
[Nexus 7 General] kupuguy:
I just checked my credit card account and it's showing a £208.99 pending transaction that wasn't there earlier today. It looks like Google in the UK are finally about to ship the Nexus 7 I ordered back on the 27th June.
[Nexus 7 General] Vidfreek:
Has anyone had any luck removing their credit card from the store? I can remove the card they will use to charge the tablet and then they wont be able to, since I'm getting one at Sams tonight. Anyone know if that will work as it looks like I wont be getting through to customer service, their message says now that more will be shipped in the next 3 days and I'm guessing they wont let me cancel anyways, just thought removing the card could be an option....
[Nexus 7 General] svzurich:
Has anyone who preordered with a case seen a shipping notice yet? There is still no change on my June 27th order.
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Dam ..my order its scheduled for delivery tomorrow :( lol ahhhhhh
[Nexus 7 General] casbar12:
Still waiting on my pre-order w/case. Ordered on the 27th.
[Nexus 7 General] clintonroche:
Me three.... looks like it is on a plane to FL!!
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
Poster is in Canada and I don't think we have Sam's Club here. We have Costco though, but I haven't heard about N7s there.

Personally, I'm not going to "pre-order" at any B&M anymore than I would pre-order at Google again.

I'll wait for real stock to be in real stores. Maybe tomorrow or later this week.
[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
im in an apartment building. i always see packages just left in the hallway at doorstep. If you not home, the delivery people just ring doorbell and leave package at door step. I have also seen them leave a message on my door saying delivery attempted and left the package at the rent office. they hold packages for people there. Im hoping the latter will occur since i will be at work if it arrives earlier in the day. ill still come home on lunch break and check. plus continue to check status updates through this evening and tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] vidanay:
Same here.
[Nexus 7 General] clintonroche:
I doubt that will work, I think they have the info from the authorization charge. I bet they will just charge it again.

Is that a bad thing, at least we know now.
[Nexus 7 General] zookeeperme:
NCIX apparently has them available. Ditto Staples. Possibly London Drugs now, too. That's all I've heard so far.
[Nexus 7 General] elias0441:
I got charged this morning for a 16 gb and a cover ordered on the 27th but still no tracking number..
[Nexus 7 General] Big_Ted:
Count yourself lucky, Yodel delivery are known for daft things, people have had deliveries thrown over garden fences and left in rubbish bins......

I myself had delivery failed as the post code on the package was for less than a mile from the rest of the address. They said a different driver would have to deliver it even though delivery had not been tried at that time and the post code didn't match the delivery address........:eek:

I had to wait 2 days for the sender to contact then with the correct post code before they would deliver.....:cowboy:

Moved to the top of this list and account charged again

No shipping info yet
[Nexus 7 General] EVO DL:
Caught a glimpse of my shipment going over my house as I was having a beer in the backyard.
[Nexus 7 General] danlo:
6/27, 16 gig, case. Just sat through another 30 minute wait. The rep repeated the "item sent to delivery" by Wednesday message. I think these reps are getting coached on what to say to the early pre-order customers, because she also told the story of how she ordered it on the 27th and did not receive any information as well. After multiple instances of people on this board hearing the same story, either it is one huge coincidence and called into the same rep, or this is a concerted effort from Google. If it's a concerted effort, I think it's pretty slimy. Why not just be transparent about what's going on????
[Nexus 7 General] Zyght:
Departure scan 5:16 pm!
[Nexus 7 General] nickmv:
Update 4:47 Departure Scan Louisville, KY.

And we're off....
[Nexus 7 General] 808Nexus:
I am trying to change the delivery location with UPS. I signed up for the UPS mychoice account, but when I click on the delivery options button, I get this message:

If you're the receiver...

Track with your UPS InfoNotice® Number (found above the barcode) and choose from up to four delivery change options:

Return to Sender

Deliver to a New Address

Reschedule Delivery -

Hold for Customer Pickup

Note: Prior to the first delivery attempt, contact the sender to request a change in delivery instructions or to correct your delivery address.

There's nowhere to enter a new address and I don't have any other number above a barcode like it's asking. Anyone know how to change the address?
[Nexus 7 General] TaintedByte:
Departed here too.

I really wish I could sign up for UPS My Choice to have more info available but it keeps giving me error 1013 =\ I moved, but that was like in March. Weird.
[Nexus 7 General] Havocx23:
:good: Nice! Hopefully I will get mine soon.

I ordered a 16gb July 4th still no charge and no email. I actually hope it ships tomorrow rather then today because I'm not working Thursday.
[Nexus 7 General] Warbs816:
"Deliver to a New Address" maybe?
[Nexus 7 General] speekeazy:
Me 2
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
Its good to hear you US guys are starting to see things moving and awaiting delivery, you can all share your unoxing on youtube for us lol... us Brits am afraid (well as far as I have read... long, long thread :eek:) aint seen any movement as yet..

Actually, I assume UPS is the main courier for Google, so I am assuming they will be the courier in the UK?? I hope so, in my experience they are one of the "better" UK couriers....
[Nexus 7 General] bigfatron:
Not that it helps but i'm sure I heard TNT were handling the UK distribution.
[Nexus 7 General] Bielinsk:
One thing google did tell me, is if you get the Nexus 7 from google, you get support from google. If you have a problem, they send you a new unit and include shipping the bad unit back to them.

If you buy from anywhere but Google, you have to deal with ASUS.

I know, but I am reaching for any shed of good news here.....
[Nexus 7 General] Zyght:
I had a pending on my card but it disappeared when my order got shipped ._. I have my money back and the shipment is coming...:rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] cell128:
Mine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow by the end of the day coming from Louisville KY to los angeles CA
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Mine is on it's way in the UK. Can't be arsed with it now though, bored.

When it arrives I am going to drop it in boiling oil, burn it with cigarettes and chuck it in the canal.

That will teach Google a lesson!
[Nexus 7 General] gobbo:
Nope, TNT are handling the UK distribution, though they are pretty good compared to Parcel Farce and Yodeath
[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
Maybe we also get a little bag of Jellybeans in the box, .
[Nexus 7 General] dadoc04:
still nothing for me.... :-(

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Nexus 7 General] Vidfreek:
It says as you try to remove it that it will affect your order, guess its worth a shot, I got the money in there if it still goes ;)
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
lol.. I know kinda strange isnt it...? I dont know how Google are doing the charging of cards etc...

But I know when I got an iDevice from Apple last year I actually had the device for 2 days before I was actually charged..
[Nexus 7 General] Jonnyn93:
Have you had any shipping info as of yet!
[Nexus 7 General] kharnage:
I'm waiting for just my device ordered 7/8 and still no charge on my account and there's already tracking info international already. I live in NY jesus christ.
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
:laugh::highfive: nah, just stick it on ebay and make a fortune... lol ..
[Nexus 7 General] gavinfabl:
Getting so bored of this Google non event in the UK. Going to hibernate until Wednesday or Thursday as that's when we will hear something.

Can't Google just say UK release date is 19th July.
[Nexus 7 General] 808Nexus:
None of those options are clickable.

I attached a pic of the screen:

Can't figure out how make any changes to the address...
[Nexus 7 General] Zico 10:
After the 8gb models were all shipped in Australia yesterday, me thinks today is the day for the 16gb models.

Just got charged for it this morning :)

No email as yet but I'm sure I'll get one a little later today.

.
[Nexus 7 General] Beamer9408:
Same thing here date is the same and everything.
[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
Parcel Force I haven't had any trouble with but getting an email and seeing that a delivery will be by Yodel/HDNL is usually enough to make me die a little inside.
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
Official theme song of tomorrow.

[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
Google are going to stay quiet until August when they will be hailing the release of the N7 a complete success and to thank the loyal Play Store customers they will give a 10% discount code for the next nexus device ordered via the play store.
[Nexus 7 General] ijeff:
If you do in fact have a store selling the Nexus 7 locally and are disappointed with Google's handling of the shipments, you can always get a full refund from the Play Store by refusing shipment to the courrier at your door, or returning it to the shipping outlet unopened.

Many others have been told, and I've called the Google support line myself, that full refunds including shipping ($20 here in Canada) are issued if you refuse the delivery this way. You do not need to notify Google before hand, just refuse the shipment.

Ignore speculation concerning returns; they're mostly bull. The brick and mortar stores are often more than willing to return your device in store without having to ship it back to Google, for all defects. Purchasing from the Play Store means they may ship a device to you while you ship yours in for diagnostics (after which if they deem the issue not a defect, you will be charged a fee). From your average store, so long as there is stock you will get a swift exchange.

All hardware warranties **are** handled by ASUS. Whether through Google as a retailer, or Staples, Sam's Club, Gamestop, etc.

All retail purchases **do** include the $25 Play Store credit and come from the same manufactured batch (Play Store orders are not free from the defects experienced by some customers).

**TL;DR** You can just go pick up a device from a local store and refuse shipment on your Play Store order. You will get the same warranties and the $25 credit. Google will refund your full order including shipping after the package returns to them.
[Nexus 7 General] Rueben_:
I feel like saying this right now :(
[Nexus 7 General] TepidMarinara:
I hope to hell the Nexii are actually being delivered by TNT or at the very least someone other than HDNL.

I'm quite sure they just kick parcels to their destination rather than loading them into a van.
[Nexus 7 General] TPizzle:
Just came home expecting there to be an update on my order. Same thing as many here 16GB on the 27th with a case. We were all really foolish to think that the case was a smart choice.... $20 + tax and extra wait time. Just great! :laugh:.................... :(
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
I used the UPS app to divert mine to a UPS Store.
[Nexus 7 General] Nordendorf:
for the people that say they were "charged", does it also have a $1 charge listed with the the $200+ dollar charge?

I've had the amount show up and drop off my account status 3 times now since the 11th.

thanks
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Made my post sound a little too positive didn't I?

When I say it's on it's way, I meant that it is now top of my list, with today's date and my account has been charged.

Think that is the most positive info us UK buyers have at the moment.

Sorry for raising possible hope.

**Engage pessimism mode**.....................................................**pessimism mode engaged**

We ain't never getting them! Google hate us and it is all a massive scam.

Hugo Barra has cleared his desk and hasn't been seen for a week, His colleagues thought they saw bundles of used notes falling from his case as he hastily exited the building last week.

A friend of mine, who lies a lot, said that Google in California had been shredding evidence of sales to UK customers and pushing the pulp into the San Andreas Fault.

Some of the above may not be true.
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
What about me? I ordered a 16GB without a case and haven't heard **** since i ordered it June 27.
[Nexus 7 General] rocchioo:
Click on "My UPS" at the top. Then click on your tracking number (mine was in the "recently tracked'' box). You will then see a menu with a "Change Delivery" option.

It's $5 to have it delivered to another address if you are using the free My UPS account. The only free option is to change the delivery from your home to the UPS facility.
[Nexus 7 General] TPizzle:
Yeah I really don't know what to say to that. I was expecting to get something last Fri, was expecting something today but I'll just end my expectations right now. I have a final exam to worry about and last thing I need is anxiety for a tablet that I believe I should have gotten a while ago. Google definitely lost a lot of credibility in my book. I don't care how little experience they have in logistics, a multi-billion dollar company has no excuse in anything they are doing, even if its new to them. That includes shipping a few tablets.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
See the above unboxing vid. very funny! It's a compilation.
[Nexus 7 General] tmh900:
27th, 16gb, case. When I finally get my order I'm going to shove that case so far up my cat's a$$ then send it back to Google for a full refund...then demand a free Nexus 10.
[Nexus 7 General] mgymnop:
I am in the same boat. The credit card hold disappeared today too. So nothing for me. Ordered on the 27th.
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
hahahaha .... guys if you havent seen this, its a MUST!! :laugh::laugh: (thanks man for sharing...)

Atleast we know its well packaged....
[Nexus 7 General] vkapadia:
I ordered a 16gb, no case, on July 6th. Haven't heard a peep from Google. No emails, no credit card charge, not even a credit card hold.
[Nexus 7 General] nandihno:
Yes so this is the day of the 16Gb for Australia got my cc authorization

THE NEXUS HAS LANDED!!!

Nexus is 18 miles away from me now... :cyclops:
[Nexus 7 General] woundedworld:
I ordered on 7/6 and also Jack ****. I think they're just pulling names from a hat or throwing darts at the list of people who preordered. Wouldn't be so bad if I knew I could have gone to Sam's or Staples or Gamestop or ordered it someplace else. I don't have enough free funds to have a $300 hold for 2+ weeks. So here I wait.

You guys/gals that ordered before July, I feel bad for you guys. I wish I wasn't so impatient, you deserve to be as pissed off as you want. I do hope Google does 'hook you up', the lack of communication is the most unsettling part of this ordeal.
[Nexus 7 General] vkapadia:
Exactly! I don't care about the whole "I got it first!" thing. I don't care if people get theirs before me. What does bug me is that I could have had it in my hands now and for $14 cheaper (no shipping) if I had ordered it from GameStop, but I went directly to the source, Google, and I have to wait days with no communication. At least the GameStop people can call in and ask about their status.
[Nexus 7 General] kharnage:
I sent them like 4 emails already and not one got a response. I was planning to use it this weekend because ill be going on a trip but I don't see that happening.
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
Yeah this is the biggest bugbear with everyone (me included..) I couldn't give jack**** if somemone got the unit before me (no matter when they ordered) but it kinda bugs me that their maybe a probability I could of bought in store without paying a delivery.. ah well, live n learn, next time around Google won't be gettin my cash direct, I'll use a retailer next time..
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Classic video, genius.

That explains why you guys in the States have had such a big delay.

Google used the same tape on the pallets that they sent to UPS, it took over a week to break into them for onwards distribution.

:silly:
[Nexus 7 General] audioxbliss:
ZOMG Mine should be arriving in the area within the next couple of hours... I might even be able to pick it up today :D
[Nexus 7 General] MMcCraryNJ:
So it looks like 7/5 and 7/6 people are out of luck so far. I'm a 7/5. I *think* I saw someone who ordered on the 4th say that they got their tracking number already. But nothing for me so far.
[Nexus 7 General] 808Nexus:
How did you do that from the app? I only see 'track' 'ship' 'locations' 'quote' and 'feedback' along the bottom. Clicking on locations only gives location addresses and phone numbers...
[Nexus 7 General] jfd107:
Hi guys. Havnt posted in a couple of days because nothing has happened. But it's 6.15am here in Perth, Australia and have been charged again for my nexus, and on my order page for play the nexus has moved to the top with the date of the 16th. I ordered the 16gb with no case.
[Nexus 7 General] brizey:

An Aussie here, I ordered a 16gb, no accessories on the 28th. I have finally been charged after the initial authorisation charge. No emails yet though.
[Nexus 7 General] refx:
Ordered a 16GB on June 28 and have finally had my CC charged again. Tentatively hoping that something's actually going to happen soon. No other communication or detail on Play Store order or Google Wallet.

EPIC!

I will be laughing for another week!
[Nexus 7 General] Tommyzors:
Looks like our Nexus are siting next to each other playing some cards.

Ordered a 8GB with no accessories on the 7th around 1AM. The surprising thing is there is no pending charges on my card yet.

Can't wait till they deliver it tomorrow
