I just called my local GameStop that I used to work at. As of yesterday, the items had their individual stock numbers, with a price of $9999.99. As of this morning, the individual stock numbers were removed. So the stock still shows when they check inventory, but now the items have been removed from the POS machines.

Sounds confusing, I know, but that means that employees cannot sell the item until its re-listed in their POS machines. So as of now, GameStop will not be selling the item until further notice. The manager said that they are instructed to tell customers "July 31st".

Hope this helps!
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Yup. Now be quiet while I whine and cry a bit more before Google deliver the little plastic b***ard tomorrow - then we all give you permission to get your one on Saturday from a store. :)
[Nexus 7 General] Shamushand:
Every time I feel bad for getting crazy over the ship date, I look at this thread and feel normal. Then sad again.
[Nexus 7 General] impulse630:
So here's my worry - i ordered DURING the I/O presentation, got my e-mail confirmation and my Google Wallet shows my purchase. However, i also purchased a cover with it, and since the covers now show as "coming soon", i'm afraid that they'll hold my entire order until both are available. Anyone have any words or reassurance?

"I ordered directly from Google and they said 2 - 3 weeks! It's been two weeks and still nothing! I can't count!"
[Nexus 7 General] jskahan846:
I wish these would ship already, this is killing my reddit habit :p
[Nexus 7 General] kiswa:
If Google is making others hold onto their shipments so that Play Store customers get theirs first (or at least at the same time), then they're doing the right thing.

I know I would have been upset if pre-ordering from the source meant I got mine later than third party pre-orders.
[Nexus 7 General] panman86:
Yeah at this point I'm just trolling.

I would be complaining too.
[Nexus 7 General] flub:
I pre-ordered from Ebuyer on the 07/07 they said 19th now its coming tomorrow the 13th

Rotten buggers should I complain ??????

​
[Nexus 7 General] kiswa:
My productivity was bad enough with just reddit... now this has killed it completely. I need my Nexus 7 so I can get back to doing some work!
[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
"I pre-ordered from Gamestop with no definitive date, now I am butt-hurt that I have to wait until those who ordered it from the company get theirs first."
[Nexus 7 General] Sizeth3:
I was pretty certain I would wake up with a credit card charge and a tracking number today, with a possible Friday delivery day. Bummer :(
[Nexus 7 General] got556:
Ordered from play store on June 28th. Nothing yet.
[Nexus 7 General] adamskub:
Yes, DEMAND that they ship out the 26th or you will sue :p
[Nexus 7 General] damayor521:
You know what's funny? Reading the tags in this thread. Hilarious.
[Nexus 7 General] TahrirSquare:
just came back from gamestop, rep said they have the pre-orders in the back, but can't sell them until google's ok. Said the tablets are in the system now for $25,000 each to make sure they're not sold.
[Nexus 7 General] adamskub:
Ill take one...errr better make that two
[Nexus 7 General] Jiggavolt:
Seeing some of the people in this thread, I wouldn't be so sure...
[Nexus 7 General] rdubbs007:
so buy one and then get a price adjustment in a week......
[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
i think what most people are upset about is knowing they could have saved $14 and gotten it the same day as if they had preordered it....now if that doesnt happen i think a lot of people will be fine with that.
[Nexus 7 General] jskahan846:
I wish I were obscenely wealthy so I could buy one at that price, then tell everyone here that it was just delivered from GP :D
[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:
I call bulll**** until i see it postsd 99 more times
[Nexus 7 General] th3drow:
alright someone needs to call GameStops bluff and buy one of them for that price. Any rich people here?
[Nexus 7 General] calvin4001:
Just broke into a store to get my nexus 7. Unfortunately, I ran into 2 problems. It was during business hours and it was an apple store...
[Nexus 7 General] panman86:
What's pretty interesting is that I've already paid for mine and only need to present a photo ID....veeeeeery interesting indeed!
[Nexus 7 General] vossitch:
There's every chance the Nexus 7's are at local delivery centers and as such could be delivered tomorrow, might explain the lack of information from Google while they get confirmation that pre-orders are in place all to end up in our hands on the same day.

That's my theory at least until about 6pm tomorrow, though we often get delivery's on a Saturday here so all may not be lost :-)
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:
Wait Sh!t you mean this isnt the 1% waiting for the nexus 7 club? Damn I must have gotten my links crossed again. 25k sounds like a cheap lunch to me:D
[Nexus 7 General] 18t:
got really excited for a millisecond when i saw an email from google in my inbox. ****ing google offers bs
[Nexus 7 General] pillowtablet:
Some guy on Reddit is claiming that the Play store has begun shipping. I can't post links because of my post count, but here's what he said:

"I just got off the phone with the play store. They said they have started shipping today. If you pre-ordered from the play store then you will eventually get an email with a ups tracking code. Who else is psyched?"
[Nexus 7 General] qoncept:
No one's credit cards have been charged. They aren't going to do anything till they get their money. Haven't you ever worked a drive-thru?
[Nexus 7 General] TahrirSquare:
Here is the phone# to the game stop I was at call and ask yourself.(540) 891-8340
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
Lots of people got charged after their Galaxy Nexus' were delivered. See earlier in this thread for evidence.
[Nexus 7 General] MSigler:
It's gotten me twice today for google offers, since I'm subscribed for two cities, grrrr
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:

[Nexus 7 General] th3drow:
hahahah i actually always read what responses people get from google employees, keep badgering them till we get out tracking info!!
[Nexus 7 General] jamesbra:
It is taking me forever to write my final paper for this class because I keep coming back to the browser to refresh this thread, gmail and google wallet. I should have finished it last night. FUUUU my inability to wait patiently.
[Nexus 7 General] calvin4001:
Ok guys I just did the sacred ritual! I went to the google hq, licked all of the android statues, and finally, spun around until I collapsed. While I was laying on the ground in a daze, I saw the great android robot. He told me that our devices will be shipping soon! He said soon guys!

On a completely unrelated note, I am now in an insane asylum and this counts as my phone call. Someone please help me!
[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
That is very true, also because this is an online purchase, Google very well may charge your card and put you into the negative. This may not be like a normal in-person charge where if you don't have overdraft the purchase is declined.
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
Just called, and asked when it would be shipped.

Will said it depends on when i placed my order. I told him the 29th, and he said it was "in processing" and will ship "any day".

So nothing new, but at least processing looks promising.
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
That $13 shipping charge from Google is looking pretty sweet right about now.:p
[Nexus 7 General] lin013190:
Not sure.. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Yes its the first wave
[Nexus 7 General] thatguych4rlie:
I just spoke on the phone to a representative at Google support and he was extremely helpful in shedding some light on the shipping date.

He, like me, ordered his Nexus 7 almost immediately after it went up in the Play store. He informed me that the tablets were over-nighted to shipping warehouses all over the US and, if I understood correctly, other countries as well.At this moment, he said that he believes all the tablets are ready to be shipped and they are just waiting for Australia to give the green light on before Google pulls the trigger and everyone is shipped their tablets at once.

This should be taken with a grain of salt, but orders should start shipping next week and could begin to arrive around the week of the 15th.
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
I don't think so.
[Nexus 7 General] thekillingtree:

[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
Seems not, their sites and logo look similar and both are based in New York. I guess they are just old companies that developed together in the same location. You know corporate spying and all. lol
[Nexus 7 General] nicolasavru:
Nope. Other than both of them being in NYC, J&R and B&H have nothing in common. B&H is a professional photo/video store that also sells other electronics/computer equipment, and J&R is a general (and rather ****ty) electronics store.
[Nexus 7 General] BrianDigital:
Not sure if this is Google s normal way if shipping and billing. But my gfs gnex came today and the amount was charged today as well. The reserve hold came off on July 3
[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
I hate to use this colloquialism, but "Pics or it didn't happen" lol

Nvm I misread.
[Nexus 7 General] loug002:
Thanks to one and all for these posts.

Like you, I was worried about that 'charge' but reading these posts and some friends from G+ I have nothing to worry about.

My bank (PNC Bank) must be weird though. See, I used my mother's bank account as I don't have one of my own, and I ordered my Nexus 7 on June 28, 2012. It took the money out--as an authorization as you'd all note--but after that day it never showed up in the account as an addition or a subtraction.

My only thought is that holds are held separately by PNC bank and doesn't show up on the account so as to not confuse people.

Oh well, either way..please let the shipping date come soon eh? I sold my iPad to come join the Android Rebellion instead of staying with the Evil Empire. Though I may not have a tablet at the moment, I am happy to have done so!
[Nexus 7 General] SupaDupaFly24:
When I ordered my Galaxy Nexus from the Play Store my account was charged the same day it was shipped!
[Nexus 7 General] IncredibleMango:
The 15th is a Sunday, so...
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
That's what I thought.... Good to know I'm not crazy
[Nexus 7 General] torontobc:
You know what, there is some joy in waiting that is not there in receiving the product. I bet you get tired of the tablet same day because it's the same Android system. It might be useful later on but really waiting is some joyful suspense in itself. SO, CHERISH IT :p
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
This will be my first Android experience (other than a few minutes with my cousin's G2) so it'll take me at least 2-3 days to get tired of it :D
[Nexus 7 General] Dirtbound:
I don't completely disagree with you, but for myself I haven't used an Android device since my Galaxy Epic (original sprint slider) which was given to my wife before it went Gingerbread... so I have a feeling this is going to be a bit more exciting for some of us. :p

Having my Lumia 900 for my phone has been "almost" perfect for my day to day functionality (edit: I had the HTC Arrive Windows Phone prior to moving to AT&T for the Lumia 900.), but I miss some of the Google experience and that is what I am looking forward to the Nexus 7 for. Already shopping for vehicle mounts to get my Google navigation on while it is tethered via my Lumia 900's Internet Sharing.

Give me my Nexus 7... I need something to get me through to Surface RT! ;)
[Nexus 7 General] Patr1ck.:
I wanted to buy a nexus 7 for my brother who leaves the country on the 21st. If I were to order the nexus 7 now, do any of you think it will be here before the 21st?

I know none of you know the exact answer, but i'm just looking for some advice.
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
I really hope it comes quickly! I had an 8GB order on the 27th, then cancelled it and reordered on the 2nd... T_T

End of next week wouldn't be so bad though!
[Nexus 7 General] Dirtbound:
I don't think there is any certainty, but if I were in your position I would probably do it through the Google Play store to stand the best chance.

All a guessing game though.
[Nexus 7 General] ketdizzle:
Called 4 local Office Depot's and all said they are only available for presale (even though they have them in store) they received a message this morning stating to postpone any sale in stores until further notice :eek: :confused:

You can preorder in store and I guess they will call you when you are "clear" to pick it up. :confused: :eek:
[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
My biggest concern is my credit card blocking the transaction due to suspicious charge again, which is what they did the day i ordered it, i called them and told them to release it and it went through fine and google wallet was happy. I can just see them trying to charge it again today and it not going through thus delaying my shipment.....i do not want that to happen :D
[Nexus 7 General] rowanparker:
Well, finally caught up with this thread. Should be a requirement for posting in my opinion!

I'll be slightly disgruntled if EBuyer's get theirs tomorrow (although, I am sceptical!). But, I'm on holiday from the 17th for a week and I'm not overly bothered if it's before or after just don't really want it whilst I'm not here. Couriers have been known to leave things outside and for a week would be very bad! Nothing's change on my Wallet or my online banking and as it's almost close of business here I can safely assume it isn't coming this week :(

I'm afraid of this happening as well. I had charged it on my Amex and fraud prevention blocked it till I responded back. Luck have it I'll be in the middle of a meeting and Amex will be calling for me to authorize the charge. :eek:
[Nexus 7 General] txaggies07:
420 is lame. The idea to stay off the thread is not.
[Nexus 7 General] movieaddict:
LOL!! arent u in the room next to me....:laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] blank264:
I don't think I will pre-order anything again. I understand they said 2-3 weeks but I wouldn't have been upset if I just waited for gamestop to release them and picked one up in the store. I'm guessing the same people that answer the phone and email for google are also preparing the tablets for shipping.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
I just popped the loo, what did I miss, are they shipping yet??? :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
People, its not happening this week and this mid july thing means that they would ship on Monday. I hate to says this. I also want it now but its not happening.

DEAD PIXELS!!!! why did you have to mention that, I bet mine has loads now, esp I've never had any on a device I've bought with an LCD display, our old Samsung plasma did though, just one, drove me insane!!!
[Nexus 7 General] jwiskowski:
"With little in the way of fanfare, Google has made good on its mid-July availability estimate for the Nexus 7: the Asus-manufactured tablet is now on sale at a variety of retailers. Ebuyer was the first to officially launch the device earlier today with some delivery dates scheduled for as early as tomorrow. For those in the US, Adorama has also altered its listing for the 16GB Nexus 7 to reflect imminent availability — the original pre-order text is now gone and a sales representative we spoke with confirmed the Android 4.1 tablet will be arriving at the company's warehouse at some point today.

Be sure to check back! We'll be updating this page as more retailers make the Nexus 7 available for purchase."

Why would goolge choose to ship the tablet on Thursday for 2 day shipping. This dies not make sence.

[Nexus 7 General] wetfeet:
That's only a pre-authorization charge.
[Nexus 7 General] jsebol80:
Don't freak out when the charge falls off. Its just a "pre-auth" payment.
[Nexus 7 General] neilrl79:
Also Gamestop has pulled the preorder page from their website, if you search "nexus 7" the only thing it brings up is a $30 screen protector. Which brings up another point..... $30 for a ****ing screen protector!

[Nexus 7 General] deaffob:
Man... I understand the fact that some of us will be getting the tablet later than people who placed their orders near the release but I really can't understand how could we be getting the tablets later than local stores. :(
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Tolling.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
I guess I underestimated my local GameStop. They got their orders in today and they also received the email from Google stating not to sell them. Well, back to waiting.
[Nexus 7 General] youareme7:
Here's hoping the do ship out today even if we don't see tracking info until later tonight. Google Wallet is notoriously slow for updating order status; almost every time I order from a retailer and use Google Wallet to check out I get shipping confirmation from the retailer and sometimes don't see confirmation by Google Wallet until after it's already been delivered.
[Nexus 7 General] Sqwirtle:
I pre-ordered mine on July 4th. My cc got the pre-approval crap then that fell off like it is supposed to.

If someone wants to post that pic to make it easier to see, be my guest.
[Nexus 7 General] Shamushand:
Agreed 100%. Better to just to wait until I can walk in and out of a store with it than to order it and anxiously wait on a vague release date.
[Nexus 7 General] thevaristy:
Lol, no they are not.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
It also says:

Update: Unfortunately, it appears the Nexus 7 has reverted to "pre-order" status over at Ebuyer. The site now indicates that the Nexus 7 will be available on July 19th. What isn't clear yet is what will happen to those orders that appeared to have shipped. We're reaching out and will let you know if we find out any more information.

So, maybe some lucky users will get it tomorrow by mistake, only time will tell, but the majority of customers won't.

You're not. The only company that is even doing anything with them now is Ebuyer and that's only in the UK. Every other company is locked down on the Nexus right now. I doubt there will even be any "accidents" today at this point.

[Nexus 7 General] JimmyHACK:
It's just a retail product and as much as people think they are buying from the maker.. The Play store is just another online store. Retail product launches should and usually are.. all markets/stores same time. Pre-ordering from the Play store and thinking you would get earlier than some retail store is just a bad assumption when history of all retail products says otherwise. Now yes, you should get it on or right around same time, but not entitled to some special shipment.

Ebuyer is moving in and out of pre-order and I assume that's as people are checking out the delivery on them and making sure they can order them and then abandoning the sales and the hold on the stock to allow you place the order gets released. It's quite entertaining watching it bounce about :D
