It should, although you have a different Google distribution centre, we have Singapore.

Let me make it clear: Over the last 6 hours, they processed the payment. It still doesn't appear in my statement; it usually takes 1-2 days, but my available funds are exactly that amount less. Also, it is still not in Wallet and i have not received any tracking number.

This means that they "just" processed the payment and they are shipping it now. I expect by the end of the day to have a tracking number and an email, while my credit card will have a mention tomorrow.

It is coming!! (in Australia with Fedex)

Yet, don't know if i would like to give the Play Store another after this..
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Has anybodies UPS tracking updated with anything?
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Google warned the buyers during their purchase in PS that this might delay your order. I remember it very well.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Well if Canada is supported out of Singapore, and not Kentucky, that could explain why Canada has heard nothing yet.
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
And to add, after August you'll still be able to find the Flash APK somewhere and sideload it. But as you say, how long and well it works is another question.
[Nexus 7 General] misanthropic777:
No. If you have a UPS number but nothing in there, then it means that UPS doesn't actually HAVE your package yet. Meaning it won't start its journey until Monday and you should have it on Wednesday. Which for an order within 2 hours of announcement, seems extra lame.

ETA: And how come Apple can manage to get this right but Google can't.....
[Nexus 7 General] Bobb_o:
Mine has not. I figure it will overnight.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Love to hear how good the Apple community is at stashing things Apple does not want you to have for later sideloading...
[Nexus 7 General] impulse630:
Really? I don't recall that. I suppose then that i should have spent more time reading the fine-print and less time whooping about how cool my new toy was going to be! My bad. Still, i wish that there was an option now to say "i'll pay the extra shipping, just get the tablet to me ASAP, and ship the cover later". If they warned us at the time of purchase and i missed it, then it's my bad and i should have placed 2 separate orders, i guess...

[Nexus 7 General] Kitten Mittens:
So for those of us who got our tracking number, when do we expect delivery: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or later? I'm assuming they're getting shipped out on Monday, but where are the packages shipping from? Are they at our local distribution center, or at Google HQ?
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
Sure. But it's easier to ask others to calm down, when yours has shipped already. :)
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Come back tomorrow and ask that... None of us know, and UPS tracking numbers should go valid tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] EVIL JIMMY:
Hopefully the same happens for the UK in 10 hours or so!
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
No need to rush though. APKs last forever.
[Nexus 7 General] estelgrace:
Oh joy!

Nexus 7 ordered on the 3rd is shipped! It's ridiculous how happy I am, considering I didn't even buy it for me but as a late birthday gift to my two little brothers. :laugh: I'm setting it up special for them though, so I'm shipping it to me first. Can't wait to get my grubby hands on it!!!

I'm not even upset about the UPS page not updating since it's a weekend after all. It's always like that, I mean c'mon give these people a break ;)

...or maybe I'm too high on the shipped notice
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes and the sad part is that they said they would ship the whole order i.e. when both these items are available to ship. I understand your pain and i myself originally ordered with cover during the keynote but that order was cancelled by google because of my credit card. I had to order couple of days later and only then I realize that there is a note about delay of order. So i didnt order the cover second time around.
[Nexus 7 General] staplebox:
Is this the place to go to be pissed that I ordered early straight from Google and now have to hear about schmoes waltzing into freakin Sams Club and picking up BNIB Nexus 7s in the same isle as 48 packs of toilet paper without being forced to pay for crappy shipping while I wait for mine? Cause that is the place I am looking for right now. Google sucks balls at selling hardware.

Here is me being pissed.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm pissed. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I could be wrong, but I think a tiny advantage to downloading it yourself by August will be that Google keeps a copy for you in your corner of the cloud. I know all of my current (downloaded) Android apps are there, but not the sideloads.

That way if you replace (or brick) your device, all your downloaded media is still available.
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
I don't recall seeing that at all... Anyone else see this?
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
The thing which is kind of strange to me that why Google is updating the status being shipped everywhere in wallet and emails etc. however in reality the tracking on shows the label creation date and expected delivery date based on that label.
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
I recall seeing the message when I ordered, yes. Said something along the lines of your order well be shipped when everything is available and that multiple pieces may cause delays. Wasn't hidden or anything. It was in your face as you ordered.
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
Only if you agree to be chastised by the vocal minority of Google apologists. :)
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
It might be the case that it was not there on day one and they put it later on as I myself didn't see it the first time I order during the keynote. I saw it the second time I order couple of days later.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
As far as I can tell, people are seeing the label creation date and expected delivery date from third party websites like packagetrackr. No idea how they get the data, but it is not useful Wait for the real UPS site to show scheduled delivery.
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
I saw it when I ordered it the day of.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes, you are right. I am talking about this notification.
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
I saw no such thing when I checked out. Not to say it wasn't there.

Guess I've got myself to blame, then. Going back to my van down by the river. :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Don't do anything rash. It is just a tablet. A very very good tablet...
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
To be fair, as prominent as it was, I'm sure we were all just excited to get it ordered. That made it easy to miss. I don't recall the exact wording.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
The official UPS android mobile app is also showing me expected delievery date of 16th july. This is from where I got it and I have not checked any third party website. Strangeky though UPS website does not show anywhere any expected delivery date.
[Nexus 7 General] impulse630:
I'm going to chose to believe that it wasn't there when i placed my order just so i don't beat myself up for delaying my own order. Of course, i know it's probably my fault for missing it, but i'd rather blame someone else! :P

Hopefully they're right that the cases were in stock when we placed our orders so the delay is only a day or two. I can live with that.

-d
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
hahahaha ... join the queue man, I ordered two on the 27th ...overall disappointment with first experience with Google Play Store - but hey we will get em real soon... :)
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
That one sounds accurate. A bunch of folks were reporting label printed 9 July, expected delivery 11 July. Not too useful...
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
:laugh: yes its better to blame Google as whatever is the case their level of communication and delay in communication is too much to digest.
[Nexus 7 General] crankcaller:
^^^^ That. Come on the Nexus.

I hoping it's like what they say about child birth...

Once it's actually delivered and you have it, all the pain goes away :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes but I am not very hopeful about this delivery date as the same app is telling me that my package is ready for UPS and there is no change of status since Friday (the day I got my tracking number)
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
:laugh: I hoping this is the case....
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Prediction: Sometime tomorrow (Monday) you will be able to see the full tracking history. I would expect it to show up tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] impulse630:
Hmmm... I'll ask my friend who recently had a baby. I'll hand her my Nexus 7 (when it arrives) and ask her if the pain of childbirth magically went away... :P

-d
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Lolz, :laugh: i hope and wish that this would the case and there are no hardware and software issues when I receive it.

---------- Post added at 02:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 AM ----------

Yes, you are right. I am also expecting the same.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
So here is what I am seeing. I have a ups account and when I log in it says info recieved, but UPS not some 3rd parts says that it will be delivered tomorrow. Hopefully this is accurate.
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
Its not even showing that date with my tracking number
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I am sorry - that one is definitely iffy. UPS may not have the item yet based on that. You should have better data available tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
Do you have a UPS account. If i just check the tracking number I get a lot less info.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes, it is also showing but on the other hand it is still saying that we would tell you about the delivery once we receive package which is kind of weired and this is why my hopes are not high. It is also showing me same screen as it is showing to you.
[Nexus 7 General] juanzr1:
Are you in California?
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes it would show you more if you have myups account.
[Nexus 7 General] tdrussell:
Yeah weird that it would say "not received" yet show an expected delivery date. May be region based? Mine shows the same "label created 7/09" with no other information.

ha mine is also 1.7lbs??? :eek:
[Nexus 7 General] drpfenderson:
Oh, snap! Did I say that all stores everywhere in the world were sold out? *double-checks posts* Nope. Said it was out in all stores around me, which is a city with a population of 2 million people. I'm sure in Nowhereville, Texas (population 127) you can still get one.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
All any of us can really say is that you won't get it today.

Hopefully tomorrow brings more shipping information, and a bunch of tablets.
[Nexus 7 General] vmtcom:
Nope, it doesn't mean UPS thinks it'll be delivered tomorrow. It means that Google when created the label thought it would be delivered Monday. In my case ( also with a UPS account) the label was created on 07/09/2012 and it claims it was to be delivered LAST WEDNESDAY: 07/11/2012. Until label is scanned by UPS all the dates mean nothing.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Another strange thing is that mine shows 2lbs whereas your is 1.6lbs. :laugh: why so? :D i didn't order the case

I just realized the difference in weight and i thought all boxes are same.

---------- Post added at 03:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 AM ----------

Yes, i am thinking on the same lines. :(
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
I dont really care either way, I would be really excited for it to show up tomorrow, but i am not banking on it. I just wanted to see if other people had similar information or what.

Edit: I just got an email from UPS confirming delivery for tomorrow, it seems like a good sign to me

"This notice alerts you that the shipment listed below is scheduled for delivery tomorrow.

Scheduled Delivery Date: Monday, 07/16/2012

If the scheduled delivery needs to be changed, select the Tracking Number below or log on to ups.com to request a delivery change from the tracking detail.

Shipment 1

Tracking Number: (Removed)

Shipper: GOOGLE ANDROID CO UPS-SCS

Delivery Commitment: by End of Day

UPS Service: UPS 2nd Day Air"
[Nexus 7 General] brizey:
I think you were a bit too subtle for the folks around these parts, lol.

Are you going to any events? Renting your house out to foreigners for a fortune?
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
GMAFB. No, to stir the pot, you posted an old news story from Friday afternoon, that BTW was also reposted on just about every tech site 2 days ago, like it was breaking news that stores were sold out and not getting any new N7's anytime soon. Meanwhile since that article was posted, countless people have walked into stores and bought N7's. Why the hell do you think this thread is 1,100 pages long? It's full of thousands of posts from people that pre-ordered and are angry because other people have been walking into stores for the last 3 days buying N7's. I'm sorry that big metropolis you live in doesn't have a Sam's Club and only 2 Staples (as per you) in the area. I have 20 Staples and 4 Sam's Club's within 20 miles of me, and I could have walked out with an N7 as of 2PM est today if I wanted one.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
My tracking still has ZERO updates. Not even label created. Hope for the best tho.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Good for you and hopefully i would also be getting this email shortly as my account also shows the same delivery date. I hope and wish that tomorrow brings something good i.e. Nexus 7 without any flaws :D
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Now that is a really good sign! You will have yours tomorrow!
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
I think a lot of people will, they must be at many hubs if I am going to get it tomorrow without any acknowledgement of receipt.
[Nexus 7 General] iamgeef:
Monday morning (8:30) in Sydney and I've still not been charged and no change in Google Wallet either. I'm hoping it'll kick off today now everyone's back at work.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Which version is yours? 8 or 16GB?
[Nexus 7 General] darkamikaze:
Anyword on 27th, 16GB with case at California?
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
16
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Mine is also 16 so this means that the news of 16GB are being shipped tomorrow was wrong and infact our tablets were shipped on Friday along with some 8GBs.

---------- Post added at 03:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 AM ----------

Anyways great news and I am also getting excited now.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Well - we know at least one was.
[Nexus 7 General] KnoxBNYC:
I received my tracking number via email Friday evening, but it still it not showing in UPS's system. :( I am in NYC. I ordered the 16gb on 27June.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Why your package is only 1.6lbs whereas mine is 2lbs.

Seems like google is compensating me with a gift :D probably a case for Nexus 7 :laugh: just joking.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Same situation I am in. I don't expect any updates until tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
I think they would update the status tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
If you call and complain enough, they put a little something extra in your package.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
I never called them and never complained. Frankly I don't have anything against google on this and I am only interested in getting my Tablet safe and without any defects. I don't care about shipping fee and the retail store availability of the tablets unlike many people complaining here.

Just want to receive what I ordered in perfect shape and everything working.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
I just called UPS and they said they cant find the tracking number at all.

Hopefully it's updated tomorrow. I'm going to laugh if i get it tomorrow and the tracking is till broken.

How much of a fail would that be if Google handed out wrong tracking numbers? lol
[Nexus 7 General] jwiskowski:
That warning was not there on the 27th. Only when you went to order the second time. I'm sorry but that's the truth. You just assume everything was the same the second time as it was the first.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
Yeah but would you want that "little something extra" though????
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Absolutely not referring to you. Just a joke on why weights might be different.
[Nexus 7 General] jwiskowski:
Wrong. That message appeared later. If you ordered during the keynote or shortly after there was NO message about a delay. I have three coworkers that ordered on launch and non of us saw the message. The message was spotted in the following days. Don't assume just because you saw it, that it was always there.
[Nexus 7 General] reeza:
Good news!! Still no activity to report myself, but it's starting to look promising :good:
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
I just have a recent incident with USPS where they were giving updates about one of my packages untill 1st of July and it was suppose to deliver on 2nd. I never got the shipment until 7th and even at that stage there was no updates since July 1. Who knows even now their status is still the same but I never bothered to check it again. If it is still the same in their system then I think I should raise a claim about undelivered item lolz. :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
If you really mean USPS, their tracking is a joke. UPS actually does a very good job.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Ok but there is nothing that you can do about it irrespective of who's fault was that.
[Nexus 7 General] jptech:
USPS said a package was 'undeliverable as addressed' and they delivered it the next day.

UPS says my nexus order is "Order Processed: Ready for UPS"

and yes, UPS is better at tracking.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes, I meant USPS. Yes their tracking is joke and they would register a miss attempt of delivery for no reason when someone is availale to collect the item all the time of day.
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
They are coming from Singapore for us Aussies. So, 2 hours behind Sydney.

Interestingly Google are charging Sales Tax despite these being an import, I am hoping they will issue the legal Tax Invoice with ABN to prove they are supposed to charge that extra $30.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Yes way better than USPS

---------- Post added at 04:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

I know :) but don't know why the wait is different :)
[Nexus 7 General] :
Its 9am in Australia now.

A few different sources reporting CC being charged for Australia customers.

This is good news for us in the UK as well as Canada and other places.

I going to bed now but will hopefully wake up to a shipping confirmation from Google.

Can any Aussies post a screen grab of any email or confirmation?

YAY! :)
[Nexus 7 General] trbloomer:
After reading all the whining in this thread over the last two days. Awesome you are simply an awesome brother. Hope they appreciate you later in life.:angel:
[Nexus 7 General] rickytenzer:
If I don't get my shipping confirmation by noon EST, I'm not getting off the phone with Google until they know exactly where MY package is. ****ERS...
[Nexus 7 General] jptech:
It's not a package until you get a tracking number.

Until then, it's an order. And maybe your bank has regulations about auth holds which won't let them charge right away.
[Nexus 7 General] refx:
Lucky guys. I'm in Australia, ordered on the 28/06 and have no credit card charge or shipping notification. Had a hold charge for ~5 days after ordering and nothing since. I'm thankful we were one of the few countries that actually got on the list for Play Store orders but it looks pretty pointless now seeing as people are able to buy it in stores in the US and online from other sources before us.
[Nexus 7 General] jamesbra:
In this thread North Americans realize that Australians live in the future :mindblown:
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
Aussies won't see any movement until 11am Sydney time I would think, the tablets are in Singapore if that bit at the bottom of our orders can be trusted.
[Nexus 7 General] antikryst:
Should update in an hour and a half then. Its 730 am in Singapore.
[Nexus 7 General] DarkRyoushii:
Australian here:

It's getting bad, I was walking to the train station and saw a star track express van. Felt like asking if they had my tablet. :( I firmly believe that I will get a shipping number today though since that's what the guy on the phone said.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S III
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
When you stop him, ask if he has mine too. And I am not even in Australia...
[Nexus 7 General] Flying180:
They better ship it out today, just so that i can stop refreshing everything and actually do some work!

I ordered a 16GB on the 30th, but nothing is showing up yet.
[Nexus 7 General] rickytenzer:
1) I've spoken with them on 3 occasions so far and they've all assured me that my order has been shipped.

2) I'm in Canada which is why I'm getting shafted.
[Nexus 7 General] Pondy:
I am in the exact same boat mate. Same order day, same bank activity....Eagerly waiting for an update....
[Nexus 7 General] Dest1ny85:
Melbourne Australia here.

My order updated to 15/7. Bank charged.

Ordered on the 29/6
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
15/7 was yesterday though?
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Expect delivery Monday .if shipped Friday :)

Sometimes with ups my tracking wouldn't update till the day I get my package..

Most orders I make is on a Friday and ups delivers it Monday so ..its getta clooossssseeeeeee
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
Wrong. You want to be an asshole about it, I can too. I was also at work. I watched the keynote with two other co-workers who were all anticipating the sale of the Nexus 7 because the details leaked out a couple of hours before it. We ordered them as they were announced, during the keynote, when one person pointed out that the case wasn't available yet and didn't have a date. That's when my other co-worker Marc pointed out the message.

So I'm not sure why you're telling me not to "assume" anything. I told you that we saw the message on the day of. I didn't lie about that. I had a conversation about it at the time, which was why I was able to recall that with such confidence. Try again.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I actually think things are looking up if all we have left to argue about is the fine print on the Google Play order form.
[Nexus 7 General] mynameisfyl:
Finally...

Ordered from Play Store 6/27 and finally got the tracking number Friday. It's not showing squat though on UPS's end. I'm hoping that doesn't mean that they created a shipping label and are just waiting till Monday to really ship it.

Dammit..I'm impatient.
[Nexus 7 General] Dest1ny85:
Yes, my Nexus 7 8GB moved up the top of google play order and print 15 July 2012.

Still no update from google wallet and email
[Nexus 7 General] JimmyHACK:
Lot of us in this situation.. odds are won't go til Monday.. but hey we can dream it will update tomorrow with "Out For Delivery"
[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
That's exactly what it means
[Nexus 7 General] teamloks:
i think they post all preorder tablet already just not update to all customer...
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Read my post above :) with ups it can be anything

I always order on Fridays ...lol and they get here on Mondays .half the time the package is here before tracking even updated .and I'm sure its the same way with this .so hopefully we get it delivered tomorrow ..on time :)

So did AUSTRALIAn get tracking yet???
[Nexus 7 General] TalB123:

[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
Not yet, still only 8am in Singapore. Another hour and a little I am hoping we will see some movement.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Best case Australia seems to be charge and ship Monday, delivery whatever Australia usually is...
