Ignorance is bliss, which is probably why you don't have an issue with Google. Well, that and you already have your tablet. So, being that you aren't affected by the foul up, it's hard to agree with your perspective. By the way, I don't believe you know jack about how any of those corporations operate (some of which I've worked for), logistics or how to manage your time, since you keep firing back. Reality check - unless you work for Google, you don't understand their intricate internal distribution system. Quit playing doctor.Personally, I don't care how their broken system works, I just don't like spending more money than the next guy to get my product delayed. You clearly don't appreciate that they screwed the Google Play Store pre-order customers. So, if you're not affected, move on.

You will get what you paid for. A 7" Tablet.
[Nexus 7 General] baggy247:
Man I hope this is right, it would be strange since none of us have had any confirmation but awesome too!
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Ppl u realize it can take up to 24 hours for ups to update right?? Stop worrying about your tracking ...its being shipped so relax. Lol
[Nexus 7 General] mirror image:
Nope, nothing. I only ordered on July 12th, however, so I didn't expect anything until next week. Money has left my account but that happened immediately after placing the order so it must be the pre-auth. It has yet to go back in.

No emails or anything else, however.

Tea and crumpets? Its a British thing. I think a crumpet is like an English muffin???

[Nexus 7 General] twobikes:
When the difference in shipping air to New Zealand and if the idiots at Goolge send in a stupid size box it can be an extra $100 for shipping. So what you are telling me is I should not be *****ing about a possible extra $100???????
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Why would you buy a tablet made by idiots at "Goolge"?
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
+1 hahaha
[Nexus 7 General] mtfsandlin:
I could understand more play credit, or shipping refunded, or something like that but are some of you guys really expecting a full refund? That is quite ridiculous. Sure Google may not have done what you expected, but are they really that evil? Do you really want to see them have to lose profit over a week of difference of a tablet? If we do this, there won't be a nexus 10 for barely over production cost, and there will be some repercussions. I know this has been said before, and I was upset when people said this at first, but now I'm really starting to understand:

It isn't mid July yet, and *most* of the tablets are shipped. That's earlier than they promised.

And think about what you will be receiving, and how much you paid. 200-250 for a tablet that is much better than most $300+ tablets. It's a hell of a deal, and I am happy for that. No, thrilled!

I still love Google, and all of the products and things they do. Even though they are a giant corp, they still mess up at times, and we still aren't completely sure this is all their fault either in the first place.

HOWEVER, if Google is indeed reading (who am i kidding, they see everything. ;D), communication is something that was quite poor in this release. If there was a mistake, be up front. Don't try to hide it. Think about how hiding things works for politicians... it doesn't.
[Nexus 7 General] towelieee22:
Now that people people have started receiving info this thread has actually slowed down and become more relevant but more hateful. Someone bring back some of that ridiculousness from a couple hundred pages ago and entertain us while we wait for our N7s to come next week

I am not saying google make idiot products, I am saying the shipping box size can be idiosyncratic i.e they will ship a product that is 8x5x2 inches in a shipping box that is 20 feet x 10 feet x 2 feet (I exaggerate) but you get my meaning.

And when I have my freight forwarder re ship to me I just like to know if Google Play has or are shipping in a sensible sized box so I will only have to pay $50 for shipping instead of $150 air freight to New Zealand. If I know it is to large I can get my re shipper to re box.

Instead of having a go at me can anyone help me?

Crumpets and Muffins are different things:-

Crumpets are flat on the top and bottom and are full of holes - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crumpet

Muffins are more rounded, made of a different sort of dough and are coated in some kind of flour or something - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muffin_(English)

On the Nexus 7 front, haven't heard anything yet but hoping to receive my tracking number from TNT on Monday :D

N7 Order via PS

Okay guys. I can see here's a lot of *****ing speculation going on.

My Device: GN7 8G via PS

Ordered: 7/7

Pre Auth Immediately: $1 + $230.03

Pre Auth Dropped: 7/12

nothing nothing nothing

Shipping Confirmation Mail with Tracking: 7/13 (11:11 PM)

Debit Card Not Charged (Remember the pre-auth. already dropped from account, so google do not get the money till now)

Can not Track the number. It's not in UPS system as of yet.

My thought:

The package is ready to be shipped. A shipping tag is assigned to it (by Google or any other party who is assigned for handling it to UPS) but it is yet to be picked up by UPS. To calm down the customers for the time being, google send the shipping tag (tracking #) early. Most probably UPS will pick it up sometimes on monday (may be later too, can't tell) and the card will be charged then. And depending on where I live and where the package is now, I will get it sometimes late in next week.

[Nexus 7 General] haloimplant:
OK fine :p
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Honestly they shipped the tablets on time...the 2-3 week window isn't even over yet. You all are *****ing over some bull****....most tabs shipped anyway...and for those that didn't ...2-3 week window ain't over so until then ..stop *****ing !!!! I do understand they shipped ass backwards ..like me I ordered on 27th and just got tracking at 2am so I won't get it till probably wed and people who ordered a week after me had thiers shipped Friday morn and evening!!..but doesn't matter as long as it ships in that window I'm happy .

So chill out and stop crying to google .you all sound like spoiled lil kids

(This is not for UK ppl just U.S )
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
However, just because SOME tablets have been shipped, doesn't make it right for the majority who received nothing. For the individual customer who didn't got it, Google broke its promise. And unfortunately, this is not a 1% glitch. This is the majority of the pre-orders.

Full refund? of course not. But not getting charged for the promised delivery that failed? well, that is not just fair, but possibly legally sound

For Australian customers, the promise of 2-3 weeks is to be broken on Tuesday morning. and it will be, as no one has received any charge or tracking number. The delivery i paid was not for "sometime around July" or "soon" or "around 3 weeks" or " in 2012". It was for 2-3 weeks, which means last week. From Tuesday, we will be on the 4th week... Fail..
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
haha .. then again I take back what I said, this ould become a lifestyle...:D
[Nexus 7 General] MaxCarnage:
No you!
[Nexus 7 General] elias0441:
I gotta admit, even though if i didn't receive no email or charge, im still not mad because this thread just got more awesome and funnier since google announced they're shipping the tab.
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
Another indication that something did went wrong is that 4.1 is out there. You roll on the new OS with the new device and keep it with it for a week or so, so people will buy it. You don't release it for the old devices and then start selling the new. one of the selling point for the new tablet is gone
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I have to admit, that is one of the more contorted explanations I have seen.
[Nexus 7 General] Jonnyn93:
anyone??

Anyone in the UK got any dispatch info or tracking numbers yet? has anyone's bank been charged yet either?
[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
I really want to believe this. I imagine there could a fault with the TNT dispatch references not applying automatically against the PS orders, this means they don't update, we get no reference and payment is delayed too. Maybe there is a team of Google techs working on it right now spinning it out to pocket extra overtime pay. But more importantly I want to believe the tab is on a truck somewhere on its way to me.

The voices in my head though are whispering "Bull****". Should I believe this or the voices.
[Nexus 7 General] eyesparky:
Pleased Google have started shipping exactly when they said they would i.e. the middle of July. Feels like the middle of July to me. Don't recall them mentioning delivering them all globally within a nanosecond of each other. That bit of the announcement I must have missed. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
thank you. i can do better if you wish. Any logical arguments from your way why my position is not logical?
[Nexus 7 General] timmytim:
Cool story bro
[Nexus 7 General] woundedworld:
Agreed.

I ordered on 7/6 and I am currently awaiting my final authorization, shipping notification, email from google stating my device has shipped, and the change in date to my purchase in Play Store (Others said their devices purchase dates changed from the original date when shipped). It's like I never even ordered it, except the Play Store has it as completed on July, 6th.

Oh well, next week will be boring for me as I have about a month left till I go back to school. Until then I will be anxiously waiting for the 16gb Nex7 I ordered, and the free case, and 100 Google Dollars, and free puppy I should receive for having to wait any length of time.

I do agree waiting sucks, but I do come from a background of having to wait to either get something used or not at all. I think what adds insult to injury is that SOME people actually have them. I remember what is was like to show up to school and lil' Billy has got a new Ninja Turtle! I would then cry to my mom for the 7 dollar piece of Taiwanese plastic, she would in turn tell me to stop crying like a baby and earn it. The point is, after all the 1100 pages of *****ing about a piece glass with 16gb flash memory and a plastic back, what do you think will happen? While I agree living in the "Drive-thru" age of society sucks when you actually have to end up waiting. And if having to wait is this traumatic in your life, then you should be thankful nothing actually traumatic has happened in your life.

But just think, this time next week, we all will be posting in different threads going our separate ways. Kind of like the Breakfast Club :D

[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
I ordered my nexus day one, I'm in the same boat as you, but I agree that mistakes can be made. Everyone at Google are humans, just like us. And obviously from this thread, we're all imperfect. None of knows what happened.

You've never arrived a work late? Made a calculation error on a test? Miscommunicated with your parents, children, friends, coworkers? Tried something and failed, but learned from the mistake?

We've all spent money on a product only to find out when it's too late, we could have gotten it cheaper.

These are everyday occurrences in life. Are you really the person that let's a $14 loss effect your life, your peace of mind and joy in living, this much?

For the sake of human kindness to another, my email address is Lef2myowndevices@yahoo.com. Send me your address and I'll send you $14 personally (Just him guys, I'm unemployed and living on my 401k right now).

Device: GN7 16GB

Location: TN, USA

Ordered: 7/7 via Play Store using my PayPal Debit Card

Auth/Temp Hold: 7/7

Auth Expired/Returned: 7/12 (funds returned to my PayPal balance)

No shipping email / No update in Google Wallet / No charge

Anxiousness Level: Very High

I guess my only issue is the apparent inconsistency in the order units are being shipped. I've seen people in this thread who ordered the same day I did that have received their shipping emails and others who ordered in June that have not.. just seems at least 'a little botched' to me. I'm very anxious, but I'm not gonna go crazy and demand compensation or anything.. As a Nexus One user, I know Google won't do anything but publicly state how things went perfectly. Pre-ordering doesn't guarantee I'll get my unit first, it just means I'm guaranteed a unit.

Since you asked, Android 4.1.1 was rolled out to AOSP 10 July and is available for the Samsung Nexus and the Asus Nexus 7 now.

The source is available to all Android distributors now. If you don't have it - speak to your cell phone or tablet provider.

Google is not cutting anyone out of new releases here.

are there people getting tracking numbers show up at the ups site yet? hopefully its moving during the weekend so everyone who got tracking numbers will get it monday.
[Nexus 7 General] DrHenley:
Sam's still has them...

My tracking info says the tablet was shipped on the 9th. I guess it'll be here Monday???

I finally gave in and picked up one at Sam's. They still have seven left...:cool:
[Nexus 7 General] rrkelley:
Went to Sam's club here in Mcdonough, GA and scored one. They had two left. Cheaper, and on time. I'll be refusing the google shipment. Amazing tablet.
[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:
It wont move until monday. Reason ups hasnt updated their info is because they havent received at tbeir hub yet. We got tracking numbers as soon as labels were put on the packages. However ups cant update until they are picked up and scanned in with UPS.

Quoting Wikipedia:

"A limited-slip differential (LSD) is a type of automotive differential gear arrangement that allows for some difference in angular velocity of the output shafts, but imposes a mechanical bound on the disparity. In an automobile, such limited slip differentials are sometimes used in place of a standard differential, where they convey certain dynamic advantages, at the expense of greater complexity. The common slang term for a Limited Slip Differential is Posi, named after GM's "Posi-Traction" unit which was built by Eaton"

Refraction of the sun's light through water drops in the atmosphere causing a prismatic effect perceived by a person looking towards that light.

Rotation of the planet on it's axis causing the sun to be occluded as the viewer is moves out of line-of-sight.

With a mechanism that applies a torque internal to the differential that resists the relative motion of the output shafts.

[Nexus 7 General] Goobz:
When I ordered (29th June) the play store said 3-4 weeks, not 2-3 so unfortunately they still have a week and a half up their sleeves. (18th - 25th). This has since changed to 1-2 and stuck there...

I read in an article on Gizmodo Australia that they spoke to all of the usual retailers here and they all gave a launch date between 25th and 28th so if the US launch is anything to go by, they are going to use all of that and then some and we should have down here them some time around then if not after. Im still quietly optimistic they will send out the pre-orders sooner but I dont think its going to happen... :crying:
[Nexus 7 General] nusairh:
exactly, that's what i think too:good:
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Sounds Right

is this thread dying? I don't see the same kind of activity lol

Did UK and Canada orders ship?
[Nexus 7 General] antikryst:
so we basically get it tuesday latest? since its 2 day shipping?

really? no one is confident enough that the packages started in UPS in the first place? so google gets all the nexus tablets and stores them in their warehouse (do they even have one)... then UPS picks it up from there. from china or wherever the tablets have been made.

argh. i just want to be optimistic that UPS had them all along and google just gave the go signal.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
I believe google has boxed them and labeled them. They are awaiting shipment on Monday. I could be wrong but it seems like this.

Saturday and Sunday do not count on shipping. Only days that count are M-F

Expect Wednesday - Thursday delivery
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Check back Tuesday and we will see who has it - and when they got it.
[Nexus 7 General] Zico 10:
It was definitely "2-3 weeks" when I ordered on the 28th.

Just for kicks I thought I'd call them up yesterday and try to cancel the order (knowing they wouldn't let me). The operator insisted that we'll [in Australia] get our tracking numbers on Monday or Tuesday.

Not to take anything he said as gospel, because he was an absolute clown.

I hope we'll get them next week, however the disappointing thing for me is the realisation of how amateurish Google is with customer service. I guess before I ever had to deal with them, I just assumed they'd be of high standards.
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
Shipping from ASUS Taiwan would have been by an international freight company into a third party logistics store, it would have needed to go through customs and various other departments. From there the logistics company would have been given a list of people, the labels would be printed and affixed to the package. At the time the label is printed the number is emailed to you.

UPS are told to come and pick up, they take them to the distribution centre and finally, eventually, the label is scanned and it enters the computer.

The number can be trusted. It is a sign that UPS have been requested to pick up the box from the logistics company, which they will/have done ready for the label to be scanned sometime Monday.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Sounds good but not right. We know tracking numbers printed on 9 July were not sent to customers as Shipped until 12 July.

[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
True to a point. I've seen movement during the weekends before when going from one hub to another without paying for Saturday service. But yes, Wednesday probably at the earliest for anyone who hasn't received any info yet (like me).
[Nexus 7 General] pupsin:
Nothing for me. Ordered on the 2nd.
[Nexus 7 General] NonovUrbizniz:
So you're safe, 19th is 3 weeks, they ship it on Tuesday and they've fulfilled their projected estimate...

Keep in mind "estimated" shipping times are EXACTLY that, estimated and in no way shape or form guaranteed.
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
By the way, did someone say that when you refuse the package they won't refund the shipping? Would make sense. Be aware if that is your plan. Again, this is hearsay so take with a grain of... well, a grain of whatever you want.
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
Americans without an email?

:( Am I the last of the American June 27th orders that did not receive a shipping email? Please let me know if there is someone still out there? My Google Wallet receipt still looks ok like it did when I placed the order, so I have no indication that this order has been cancelled but this Forum seems to be about RoW (Canada, Australia, UK, etc.).

Maybe Ill call Google if I don't have an email by Monday and see why I have been excluded. I would have expected something telling me my order didn't go through shouldn't I? Not granted I did the double delay of ordering the 16G version + Case but shouldn't I have at least received a shipping email with the rest of the people last night and this morning.

Depression is slowly overcoming me, I am the last American picked. The kid that nobody wants on their team. I don't really mind, I like hanging out with the Brits and Aussies lots of great people! I always say they are the only ones that can tell someone to eat $hit and Die then have the person thank them for it. Just a wonderful way with words, tone and rhythm. I should have married a Brit....dated one once oh memories, such great memories.

Back to reality, wheres my EMAIL!

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------

Actually I heard that a Google rep advised someone that if they reject the package they will receive a full refund, shipping and all. Sure it is hearsay but I think if you return to sender pretty safe to say you will receive 100% of your monies back, may take a bit but you should get it.

All the best.
[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
Dunno if anybody has already mentioned this since I haven't been really following the thread but I called UPS and they said that the label has been purchased but the pickup hasn't happened yet for mine (my tracking number results in no results). It'll probably be picked up Monday and will ship then.
[Nexus 7 General] chocoyo00:
