[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Regarding play store orders,

How can UK customers buy an official nexus 7 case?

Accessories seem to be U.S only .

Can't even find them on Amazon UK :/
[Nexus 7 General] Gigalabz:
It looks as-if Ebuyer UK have caused an outrage as i just tried to call the Google Play line for devices and the automated service refused to even put me on hold due to the high number of calls.

You're welcome! :good:
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
We don't have them in the us currently either
[Nexus 7 General] Darth Pooh:
They weren't real ninjas... if they were... you wouldn't have seen them.
[Nexus 7 General] lfeuln:
Exactly. I have vivid memories of what seemed like a reputable Amazon reseller (OnSale?) offering firesale HP Touchpads. I think only a tiny minority of orders weren't ultimately canceled and never filled.

I say wait until people truly have their Nexus in hand (or you can actually walk into a store to buy - I have my doubts about stock) before getting ticked at Google. Unless I missed something overnight that hasn't happened yet.
[Nexus 7 General] ande_uk:
keep trying and let us know what they say :)

thanks
[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
well played sir..
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
I got through pretty quickly (2 minutes on hold) and they proceeded to cancel my order from the 27th immediately. I have received an email confirmation from GP stating that I will receive confirmation of the cancellation within 48 hours.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
No getting it at gamestop. They had the email this morning saying they couldn't sell them yet. He couldn't even look up exactly how much I owed because they made the system to where they can't even sell them.

[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:
It can be really funny if Ebuyer suddenly announce that there was a problem on the site, and Nexus 7 not in the stock, and all orders are cancelled :)
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Originally you did, maybe they went out-of-stock.

When I tried to order a case on the 27th June, it said accessories are currently U.S only and wouldn't let me order one.

Since then, ASUS are supposed to be releasing their multi-coloured cases for launch including in the UK, but I don't see them anywhere. :/
[Nexus 7 General] big-hol:
you want to get that pouch cancelled, i bought what looks like exactly the same 1 from ebay last night for £1.75 delivered, heres the link,

I'm surprised there aren't more Gamestop reports yet. They opened at 10:00 EST.

:silly: :silly:
[Nexus 7 General] ketdizzle:
they are too busy booting and setting their N7's :silly:
[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:
Soon you will see reports that Gamestop has burned, because refused selling Nexus 7 to customers.
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
Why? The thing isnt even released yet? What are you whining about?
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Mine is going to receive their shipment in about an hour. They said I could go pick it up then. I pretty much know for sure my GameStop hasn't received an email, but I don't think that will matter if they have it blocked in the system. Oh, well. I'm trying to be optimistic about getting it today.
[Nexus 7 General] cubfan80:
Ugh, I just got my backordered email from J&R. I knew it was coming but I was holding out hope.
[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
or reports that an employer has been sacked for selling one to a customer..

Well now I believe you...

[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
They made the price in the system ridiculous to keep anyone from being able to buy it. He showed me the screen and it showed I owed hundreds of thousands of dollars.
[Nexus 7 General] edgie13:
Yep, I saw your post. I was wondering why there weren't

MORE

posts like it.
[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
Called Gamestop and the sales person confirmed that they intended to sell them today and had extras, but google stopped the sale. I would have loved to be able to pick one up for a friend, that's having a hard time right now.

If just one of the people complaining would point us to a Google video, article, email... something that verifies that we were promised one thing and being handed another... I would agree with the plethora of whining and bi*ching going on.

But as it's stands, everyone complaining needs to grow up. I ordered a 16GB the second they said I could from the play store.

As a parent, I've seen the way those of you are acting when my son was 9, 10 years old. Thankfully I didn't give in to his tantrums, which is what Google did and shouldn't have. I've seen little girls, whine less than you people.

Sorry, but no one promised us we'd get it first. No one guaranteed us a specific delivery date or even the best price.

I feel so much disgust for you cheap azz, selfish whiners!
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
There are in the gamestop threads.
[Nexus 7 General] txaggies07:
I had been following this thread pretty closely. Then I found out I have to go to Saudi Arabia today. It is a shame I won't have any new toy to play with. At least it should be waiting for me when I come home.
[Nexus 7 General] KrisTheRock:
google play store change

Ok, somewone probably already posted this. Sorry I can't keep up with this thread.

Anyways, the google play store changed their shipping estimate for new orders to "1-2 weeks" instead of 2-3. This is a good sign!!
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Mine is completely paid for, so maybe they won't even have to scan it? Or if they do scan it, maybe they'll scan it differently or something? I don't know. I'm just trying to hope for the best, but I know I should expect the worst.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Yeah. They changed that like a week ago.
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
We need t-shirts and signs printed up and go protest at Gamestop...

[Nexus 7 General] edgie13:
Yep, but I posted in this one. :p
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
The price on the Nexus was made to read hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep them from being able to sell them. He showed me the screen.
[Nexus 7 General] cornelious2:
ask for a price match ;)
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
It's perfectly reasonable to expect that when you pre-order something, you'll get it on the first day that it's released. Here's a quote from the wikipedia article on "Pre-order": "Pre-orders allow consumers to guarantee immediate delivery on release."

No need to be hostile (most of this thread is joking, except for the few crazies) and no, none of the gamestops will be selling them today. They have networked POS and sale has been blocked in their system.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Yeah, but if they don't have to scan it, they shouldn't even see the price I would think. Even then, there's no way my GameStop has any clue what's going on, so maybe they'll call their manager or something if that happens. I don't know. Was yours paid in full when you went to pick it up?
[Nexus 7 General] ACCUSED24:
Lol.
[Nexus 7 General] wetfeet:
My question, why haven't we seen any photos of the Nexus 7 stock in the backrooms of GS or other retailers?
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
I contacted Google today about my order status (16 GB) and got this-

"Hi again M,

Thanks for writing back again. I do have great news for you. As of the

12th of July devices will begin shipping out. I suggest keeping an eye out

on your email for an order confirmation email. In this email it will have

your tracking number.

If you have additional questions or concerns please let me know.

Regards,

M

The Google Play Team"
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
I think we have, unless I'm crazy I remember people telling other people to run it through google image search to confirm that it's real and there were no matches found.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
We've seen a ton of pictures from the backrooms of GameStops. I don't know where they are (somewhere in this mass of a thread), but they do exist and are real. Plus, I've called like 4 of them and they have all said without any hesitation that they have them.
[Nexus 7 General] feynman.jr:
Seriously? If it is true, we should get one any minutes. Still no charge on my CC :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] ASSMO:
Just talked to google help!!!! Shipping today!!!!! 100 percent!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
Finally a solid answer from Google support.....
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Yep. That's exactly what happened.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
No, but I can bet that yours will have a new gigantic price. And the guy I dealt with was the manager.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Similar to what Google told me, they told me early orders are being shipped out 12th/13th and to just wait for the email.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Probably. But here's to hoping that they don't even ring it up and are just like "Here ya go." That would be perfect. But I doubt that will happen and I'm pretty positive that I'm screwed.

staples pre-orders delayed

had a conversation with staples concerning my pre-order because the pre auth charge hadn't come back to my bank yet and was worried my unit wouldn't ship today from insufficient funds, I was told not to worry, they aren't shipping today google has stopped them from shipping. but I was told they could be shipping as early as tomorrow and that I might still have mine by the 17th as I am in the first wave of staples pre-order shipments. it will give the bank an extra day to give me my money back so staples can take it again. google is apparently halting everyone's orders till play store pre-orders ship first or at least that is what I gather from what I have been told

[Nexus 7 General] TonyHoyle:
It'll ship when it ships - even retailers are guessing.. Until google give the green light none are going anywhere.

I'd like it to be this week, but not really that hopeful... 2 day shipping on a Friday doesn't sound likely.
[Nexus 7 General] j1mmyg88:
Nothing yet, when I ordered my Galaxy Nexus I did get a tracking number at 6:30pm so I'm waiting for around that time, if not hoping for sometime tomorrow and then hope to get it next week

[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
I just came out of my local Gamestop with my briefcase full of cash and they still wouldn't sell me the Nexus 7 when I showed them my $100,000 in hundreds and the pistol velcro'd to one side. Bastards. I think they thought I was trying to rob them or something, but I was just trying to buy the Nexus 7. I should've left the gun at home, but it was in a pretty shady neighborhood.

i know i'm sorry. it was one day shipping though, upgraded for free by amazon because of similiar launch craziness. the att preorder thread is still up in the sgs3 forums. preordering is a nightmare of delayed gratification
[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
It's reasonable for them all to have been shipped at the same time, not that they reach every party at the exact same time. Who said that would happen? Even Apple couldn't pull that off. I can't imagine someone at Google said, "Hmm, we have a lot of individual preorders. Let's screw them and send them to retail stores first." Most of the time retail stores send their own trucks to pick them up... The only time they stop is at their own sorting center for distribution.

I revised my post to say "intended" to sell them today. I should have made it more clear then "were" as in, they "were coming, but now they're not..."
[Nexus 7 General] smojica:
just talked to a rep. they send this in a email

Thank you for contacting Google. It was my pleasure assisting you today.

Preorders will begin shipping in mid-July, though at this time I’m unable to provide a specific date for your individual order.

Once your order has shipped, you’ll receive a shipping confirmation email and tracking number that will assist you in determining your package's estimated delivery date.
[Nexus 7 General] soldeus:
Nexus 7's for first wave are probably already sitting at UPS hubs waiting for the green light. So if they do send out shipping orders today, there's no reason they won't be on your door step by end of business Friday.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
6K is more likely.
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
If i get in line at a store before someone else, i get to check out first.

If i order something first, i should get it first. It's how business works- first come, first served.

That's why we expect to get it first. We ordered it in June. It's not a sense of elitism because we purchased from the play store, its following good business practice and common sense of "first come, first serve".

If that does not happen, we will be upset. Simple as that.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
I bet Costco starts selling them soon too.
