I have been pretty much been checking this thread everyday this week. I was catching up on the recent posts from the early hours this morning and holy crap this is hilarious.

We truly do live in a age where everyone is to damn spoiled. I find it extremely hilarious that people are rushing to buy it from other retailers because theirs hasn't shipped from GP yet and then freaking out that they cant cancel their original GP order.

anyway I ordered mine on the 29th with the thought that it probably wont ship for 3 weeks and if i got it earlier. sweet. It would be nice to get it sooner, i sure could have used it last night and this morning for a few things. But i have my gnex to satisfy that. Besides I dont think i'm going to be happy with JB until the AOKP version is out anyway. I'm still running b40 on my Gnex do to the simple fact that I cant customize my navigation bar. At least i havent seen any of the custom JB roms that have that feature yet. I like to have menu, home, back, and search on the bottom of my screen.

I'll continue to watch this thread for 2 reasons. 1. to see if anyone starts getting their ship notice from GP. 2. i hate to say, but to continue to see the drama queens freak out.

Being shipped via Parcel Force as I'm typing this post. Card charged, order status changed from "order placed" to "pick in progress" and will be here pretty soon.

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot! :victory:
[Nexus 7 General] IncredibleMango:
Anything I should know about happen since page 300?
[Nexus 7 General] DBJohnston0104:
Well I can confirm that GS is not releasing them today. I just left the store and the rep told me that Google sent them an email and said that they will be released "at a later date."

The wait continues...
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
Yeah it looks like Ebuyer have pipped GP to the post with shipping!!! :crying:
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Us Americans know all about that.
[Nexus 7 General] iucidium:
*golf clap*
[Nexus 7 General] ande_uk:
there must be some punishment cos the US distributors seem to be obeying orders and not selling even though they have stock..
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
wait for the order dispatched... it might stay at the dock for a while... hope not, but

They just started collecting tax in Texas a week ago.... Sad day...

Edit: By they, I mean Amazon
[Nexus 7 General] adomanico01:
Yeah, but since Google's not really a hardware company, do stores really care that much that they break Google's rules?
[Nexus 7 General] rdubbs007:
No we dont... we dont even pay duty on items ordered internationally...
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Not to the extent we have,

We actually fly over to America, spend our money and fly back to save hundreds of pounds at christmas etc. :-)

Tax is 20% and this is on top of taxes that have already been added to the RRP price.

Our RRP prices are usually already higher than prices in the states that include tax - then we add a further 20% just to kick you in the nuts. :-)
[Nexus 7 General] jaroslavj:
Well this is bull**** if those who ordered through ebuyer will get their nexus 7 before those who pre-ordered on google play :(
[Nexus 7 General] joelszs:
I just called Google Play as well, and the rep told me that they are shipping today. HOWEVER, he wouldn't give me any details about waves, or connections between pre-order dates and shipping date. Heck, he wouldn't even look at my stupid order #...

So it really is totally up in the air...
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
I was referring to history...revolutionary war....taxes...ahh nevermind.
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
I believe when he said the Americans know about the tax in England, he was referring to the war we fought - you know, the one about taxation without representation. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
Just bought a second one from Ebuyer!

The GP one can be a present to someone, when it arrives....in December! ;)
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
everyone's is shipping today :good:
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Yep, Americans were buying from UK company clove for the HTC ONE X.

they were paying £380, whilst UK users paid £490

Even though its a UK company, located in the UK - international customers actually saved a lot of money over UK customers buying from them.

That's just how it is here - rip-off-britain!
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Well somebody got it.
[Nexus 7 General] Defiant81:
I think the Google Reps have betrayed us

I'm wondering if we get t he shipping notification tomorrow morning at like 4am.
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
ebuyers stock is still up and down? Presumably people are adding to cart and then not purchasing?

This happened to me when I purchased a Sat Nav from them a while back, purchased with 300 in stock and got a mail that evening stating that it could not be dispatched due to stock availability?

I bet Google will be none too pleased with ebuyer if they have jumped the gun. ebuyer probably wont care - they get some great sales and the kudos of being the first UK seller.

They were probably looking at these forums, taking hundreds of phone calls and getting just as frustrated that Google wouldn't let them sell.

First time in a while that the UK hasn't done what America has told us to do ;)
[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
I find it hard to believe i will be charged, receive a shipping notice and a nexus 7, before tomorrow....hope i am wrong.
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
:D Don't worry, I got your back buddy.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
we are prob just waiting for Eric Schmidt to get up in CA and give the go ahead for GP worldwide to be able to ship, he better have remembered to set his alarm early for today!!! lol :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Yep, didnt get it - no idea what this taxation war is.
[Nexus 7 General] rdubbs007:
FIFY
[Nexus 7 General] hyperdude111:
Ebuyer website just showed 400 available to be ordered and delivered by tomorrow the 13th. I kept the page open in a new tab and refreshed to keep an eye on stock numbers. Every minute about 50 were being sold. I tried to get one but by the time I'd entered my card details and created an account ALL 400 had been sold out. Ebuyer now lists 500 available to pre-order by next Thursday which is when my PC World order should ship anyway.

So by this time tomorrow 400 people will have received their Ebuyer Nexus 7's. Shame I'm not one of them but at least it means I wont have to haggle with PC World to get a refund.

Retract that 97 are now in stock again for TOMORROW,
[Nexus 7 General] contradude:
This has got to be the most ridiculous preorder I've ever seen. Next time, I'm just going to preorder through a local business and not sell my tablets for the funds.
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
The british school system....is terrifying...
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
Used to work at a video store. For each copy of a movie rented out before the street date there was something like a $5,000 fine. Per copy. I imagine the same system exists for things other than movies.
[Nexus 7 General] :
Nah, ebuyer is showing 216 in stock for next day delivery. I dunno what they are playing at. Maybe lying about stock to get orders and then they won't actually ship until the 19th.

Either way, the way their stock levels are bouncing up and down I wouldn't trust it. Never have been keen on them tbh.

Edit: 2 mins later, 90 in stock. LOL.
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Just put one in my basket on another PC and it is showing 96 in stock and next day delivery?
[Nexus 7 General] Jean_Baptiste:
Just been charged by ebuyer (£200 hole in my bank account confirms it), ship date says today. I must say this is looking like it might actually happen... Thanks for nothing Google, it would appear that you have some catching up to do...
[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
Ironic
[Nexus 7 General] jamaroufi:
So disappointed... I ordered a couple of hours after the keynote for nothing...
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
I was thinking that after the payment was processed, now I'm not too sure. I keep refreshing my Ebuyer status page. Damn it!
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Maybe you should ask why the rich pay to study in England....before making such a statement.
[Nexus 7 General] :
Nah, the ebuyer stock is vapourware until it actually ships. I have my doubts.
[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
For the fancy accent, Duh!
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
LOL - if only the British thought it was 'fancy'
[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:
From now on i will buy only in stock products and not pre ordering them.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
I wouldn't say you ordered right after the keynote for nothing. You would have been kicking yourself if you decided against it and then they were sold out everywhere. I just don't understand the apparent hatred towards Google right now for the tablet release. Was there anything written in stone about a release date that they missed? I feel like I'm following the GNex release all over again a little bit. People were up in arms about "delays" when there really wasn't a delay.
[Nexus 7 General] :
So ebuyer just went down to 81 then back up to 190 in stock. Either they are screwing with everyone, or they have a bug on their site and the image on the background is correct which says stock expected on the 19th.

It wouldn't be the first time someone has ****ed up and put something on sale when it shouldn't be or set the price at 1/10th what it should be...
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
Humans make mistakes? Since when?!
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Hopefully people will get them, and hopefully Google will send them out too and everyone will be happy with their new gadget over the weekend. :-)
[Nexus 7 General] jamaroufi:
I don't feel hate just disappointment, and really, you're right, so promises were made so no promises broken...
[Nexus 7 General] adamskub:
hehe while it wasn't 1/10th, I got my 40" LED Smart TV for less than 1/3rd of the price :P
[Nexus 7 General] danielsf:
I was born in Britain and I am at college now. I have to admit that British education absolutely abysmal in a lot of areas, especially when catering to different people's types of learning. Furthermore, a lot of the GCSE's are a joke, ICT you could get a Merritt for showing (with screen shots) you could drag and drop folders. You are talking about the minority there, sure the rich get a good education, there is no surprise their. As for the rest of us, there is a lot to be desired.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
Consider yourself fortunate you have a pre-order in place. Once the masses realize how awesome and how much better than the iP** this tablet is, you won't be able to get one until after Christmas. :D
[Nexus 7 General] Nexus Phreak:
The 19th of July date is on a pre-made site image/banner. The correct date is the one you can see at the product page ("Order within 9 hours for delivery on Friday, 13th July")
[Nexus 7 General] rapperjk:
i cant sleep... i really want my N7. last week the guys at GS told me i can pick it up on tomorrow. i went to GS yesterday again to pay the rest and told me as of now they won't be selling or releasing N7... been really bummed out about it but if anyone manages to get them, may be i can push them to give me mines.
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
They seem to have 4 warehouses for the stock to come from - the colour key in the order confirmation page. My order is coming from warehouse 1 - the orange. Maybe the stock levels reflect different stock levels in the distribution network?

Who knows, we'll all find out tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
I've just ordered some screen protectors and a neoprene pouch for my Nexus 7 from Amazon, just giving myself some hope!!!
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
I noticed the mistake, left it in on purpose.
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
Ummm. Perspective.

Each countries' citizens learn more about the founding of their own country.

Yeah, just about every "US'ian" knows "taxation without representation". And many Canucks too; hard not to hear.

Brits learn more about their own nations' founding. And everyone else about theirs.

---------

Now about this Ebuyer thing. Their in stock counter is a joke. Who knows what it means or when anyone might get their order.

And maybe Ebuyer doesn't care about getting "sanctioned" by Google. Lawsuits are rare for such things.

And to anyone complaining about whiners etc. in this thread: Read the thread or don't. It's full of baloney and lots of things. It's entertainment and an occasional bit of mostly unverifiable info.

So what.

Someone COULD create a page listing the latest info and even rumors that have been heard a few times. But I guess nobody wants to. Whatever.

The thread is what it is. Enjoy it or GTFO. :)
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
since we invented computers to make it easier for us to make much faster, costlier and global ones.

Still at least in the UK we are honest enough to apologise to those affected and with the great British colonial spirit - blame the chaps in India.

Hoooorrahh!
[Nexus 7 General] :
Yes, I *did* notice that, however that could be an error though, as I stated.

It also says 'Pre-order today' on their front page. We shall see, if anyone gets one from ebuyer tomorrow I will be surprised.

Nexus 7 available from Saas club shipped from 19th july..

Just got a mail from sams club saying Nexus 7 is available for preorder and available from 19th july...
[Nexus 7 General] Valerianus:
Has anyone had their order from the Play Store ship yet?
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Not yet....

Wonder if ebuyer have actually shipped any of theirs yet.
[Nexus 7 General] Defiant81:
Nope
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
Credit card has been charged. Does not appear to be a hold or authorization.
[Nexus 7 General] ACCUSED24:
So excited :D hope it is. I was just charged this morning.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
Normally when a company pre authorizes they just pull a dollar or two to make sure the card is valid. My statement shows charge for the full amount. It may be wishful thinking but I would love to see it go out by next friday.
[Nexus 7 General] Crazypinoy9:
Most companies that only charge a dollar to your card for verification are gas stations. You won't see your gas charge for the full amount immediately. It will first post as one dollar while you're pumping gas and then later in the day it switches over to the full amount. That might not be the case for everyone but that's what happens to me.

I had the full amount as pending in account yesterday and now the pending charge is gone and no other charge for the same amount shows up so I think it really depends on your banking institution.
[Nexus 7 General] Patsfan123:
I ordered earlier today and there is a $279 charge pending on my credit card right now.
[Nexus 7 General] MaxCarnage:
Don't take it personally; they're only going to see what they want to see. Pre-orders always cause a lot of speculation and drama, with people freaking out about crazy things. It's hilarious; just go with the flow. :cool:
[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
I hope it doesn't start shipping for a while. Tomorrow night I leave for a two week vacation and that would suck if it came right in the middle of it or something.
[Nexus 7 General] edscholl:
i'm going to get your hopes up even more.. :D

http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2506344&topic=2451685&ctx=topic

Mine has been charged according to that page. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] pttymcgee:
Funny, I had a $1 charge and a $212.99 charge...not sure what that means.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
This is what I was talking about before, an authorization is not typically for the price of the item, but merely to check that the card is valid. Just wondering if you go to google play and check the status of the order does it say "Complete"?
[Nexus 7 General] ky0nkyon:
I have a full charge of $283.84 on mine.

My life for Aiur
[Nexus 7 General] edscholl:
same link as above:

so they did an authorization request to make sure your card was valid, then billed.
[Nexus 7 General] Lootes:
Mine charge is listed as temporary authorization. Waiting patiently.
[Nexus 7 General] Nxxx:
Mine was charged. Waiting impatiently.
[Nexus 7 General] ACCUSED24:
I was charged $1 and then full charge and now my order says complete. I really hope it comes today :D
[Nexus 7 General] DamienChaos:
I'm very skeptical of the device shipping (this) early; but, if folks' orders start showing up as Complete in Google Wallet, that would be an interesting development.
[Nexus 7 General] Atmazzz:
Mine says complete under My Account in the store where all the rest of the apps are listed. Under the order info for the Nexus 7 its just the same info since I ordered it 2 days ago.
[Nexus 7 General] blaine.hale:
In my case, they charged me a dollar twice THEN charged the full amount. I can only hope they ship early, but yeah, that's my case.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
Im wondering if anyone's account says something other than complete. I have now had the full price charge on my card for two days without it being removed. Does anyone have a status of something like "in progress" or something or does it automatically go to complete?
[Nexus 7 General] ACCUSED24:
+1

That would be nice to know.
[Nexus 7 General] clintonroche:
I had the exact same experience except I canceled an 8GB to order the 16GB. Kind of silly that they have to send it to a specialist to cancel the orders.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
It should and it would.
[Nexus 7 General] cypher21:
the camera hole is on the wrong spot. top of landscape, pics of N7 show it's on top
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
I ordered mine on 1st which is close to 2nd and my current situation is that the authorization charge was gone and there is no new authorization charge.

I have sent an email to google today about the order status and let see what is their reply on that.

---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------

This cover is not made for Nexus 7 and many seller are trying to sell such covers to potential Nexus 7 owners because the tablets, for whom those covers were meant for, didn't sell well so they have lot of stock with such nasty covers. Currently, there are not many covers (except by Asus cover) available in the market which are made specifically for Nexus 7.

I would probably buy a sleeve until some nice cover comes up. The one in play store is already sold out.
[Nexus 7 General] woundedworld:
Do you think, as far as getting one ASAP, ordering through the Play Store would be the best best?
[Nexus 7 General] Sdobron:
Sorry if repost:

Google did a preauthorization hold on my credit card the day I ordered (6/28) which lasts for 2 days or so...yesterday another authorization hold has been applied...looks like this one will be the payment and possibly ship in the coming few days..
[Nexus 7 General] Xi2wiked:
Just called google and the guy I spoke with said the nexus 7's are gonna be sent out in waves . Starting with those that ordered before the first. Who should get their early next week. And those that ordered between the 1st and 5th should get theirs either at the end of next week or the beginning of the following week.
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
I was told it wasn't in waves... or seperate ..

I hope your right as I order on 27th lol
[Nexus 7 General] Xi2wiked:
Originally wasn't supposed to be in waves. Google was not expecting as many pre orders as they got, so went to shipping in waves.

Yet again this is just what I was told.

He also said staples would be lucky if they get their tablets for the people who ordered from them, to be able to ship within the time frame they gave.
[Nexus 7 General] MSigler:
I was told by a google employee that it will be sent in waves in order of when your order was places.
[Nexus 7 General] MaxCarnage:
I was told that they would be sent in literal waves, encased in little boats that would float to your doorstep.
[Nexus 7 General] MSigler:
That would be fantastic, it's super hot, I'd love a swim.
[Nexus 7 General] adamskub:
This needs to happen :victory:
[Nexus 7 General] heat361:
Do you know from which dates?
[Nexus 7 General] IncredibleMango:
Oh joy! I ordered an 8GB on the 28th, have not cancelled anything, and now I am always checking my email right when I hear the sound to see if my Nexus has shipped, but nope, not from Google, ever...
[Nexus 7 General] popupbliocker:
If you ordered on July 1st, when should it come. Is your range (1st - 5th) inclusive?

damn me and hesitating before buying! I happened to order it at 8PM PST onthe 27th, which came out to 28th according to google's time.
[Nexus 7 General] lin013190:
.... wouldn't that be part of 1st wave?

Just called google. They told me that if I call one more time, they're calling the police...
[Nexus 7 General] JonnyFoxtrot:
Status of mine at Ebuyer has also changed to Pick In Progress! Things are looking good, though I'm not holding my breath till it says shipped lol
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
Do it... You know you want to.
[Nexus 7 General] danielsf:
I got great grades in history and have not long come out of secondary school and all we learn't was a bit about world war 2, Romans and Francis Ferdinand. I can honestly say that I have no idea how Britain came to be. :D I know more about the American Founding Fathers and the declaration of Independence than I know about British history. Maybe it was just my schools was sh** although technically I did a lot better in my GCSE's than what is considered average especially in science and ICT, so it can't have been that bad :)
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
Mine has been like that for about 30 minutes.
[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:
Just don't hurt them when they will tell you that they can't sell it to you today :)
[Nexus 7 General] jmbillings:
"Like"

I've not called them, but I do check my bank every hour or two. No charges yet... No change in the "Wallet" site.

I'm still holding out hope it'll be shipped tonight to arrive tomorrow (in the UK, 1-day is usual for couriers even though they said 2) but I'm not holding my breath...
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
this pouch - http://www.amazon.co.uk/GOOGLE-NEXU...4KMQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342101301&sr=8-1

and these protectors - http://www.amazon.co.uk/MOFRED®-Scr...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1342101352&sr=1-1

They will do for now, I actually want a full case\cover for it but want one which is hard backed\clips on and doesn't cover the bezel so will wait until one comes out.

Right I'm off my lunch, there better be some shipping info for me when I get back!! :good:

Ok is 11:53 am here in oz 7 mins till the 13th

These secrecy by google is turning silly

I remember when I got the first iPad there was at least a day for wait

I preordered from the apple store TNT delivered and it came at around 5pm but at least we had a date

But google is not playing the game correctly I prefer if they said it will ship on the 2nd of aug instead of keeping us waiting ..

Off to bed hoping I am proven wrong night night ;-)
