Sooo, i can order it from the UK and let it send to a colleague who will forward the package to NL.. jeej.

I wanna buy at Ebuyer.. it sayes 47 in stock and delivery tomorrow...... all sounds like a wet dream to me! :)
[Nexus 7 General] Stromos:
Meanwhile, Google announces, releases, and ships out the Nexus 7.1 running Android 5. Google kindly reminds you that you can not cancel your Nexus 7 order because they are "ready" to ship. :p
[Nexus 7 General] raycpe:
I just spoke with google phone support. the charges for the nexus 7 have dropped from my account I wanted to make sure that my order was okay. He informed me that that was a good thing and i can expect the shipping notice later today
[Nexus 7 General] carlpalmer:
Did you get a number with HMV selling monday i wanna speak to a UK customer service person!!!
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
LOL
[Nexus 7 General] dtblair24:
The charge for the full amount that was processing in my Bank of America checking account dissapeared as of this morning. My available funds shot up $227. Guess that can't be a good sign
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
Ebuyer.co.uk says 609 in stock with free next working day delivery - Looks like these are about to drop, at last.

...And 3 minutes later is now says 23 in stock! These things are FLYING off the shelves :)

Edit 2 - and another 10 seconds later and they have all gone.
[Nexus 7 General] raycpe:

What really sucks about shipping today is its not 2 day shipping , its 4 day because of the weekend. Unless you are close enough to get it tomorrow (my experience is 2 day shipping is strictly 2 day no matter how close you are), its going to be Monday. Had they shipped yesterday we would have had them this week. That blows.
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
call the store (0843 221 0289)
[Nexus 7 General] jskahan846:
The charges on your cards don't indicate much.

I got a GN two weeks ago and they didn't charge my card until after the UPS tracking number was trackable - the day AFTER I got my shipping notice.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
My card has been charged already. I'm anxiously awaiting the shipping notice in my email box. Does anyone know who Google uses to ship their items? Is it FedEx or UPS?
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
Well you must not live within a day's shipping from anything you've bought then lol. They aren't gonna hold on to a package at a hub for an extra day just because you had 2 day shipping if your within 1 day's ground shipping. I work in shipping and we ship over 500 packages a day with UPS.
[Nexus 7 General] jskahan846:
UPS in the USA.
[Nexus 7 General] johnzm:
i dunno about any of you, but im getting a kick out of the tags at the bottom of this thread.

i am also PATIENTLY waiting, no complaints from me here. ill still be the first person i know with one. and ill still have my galaxy nexus to play with in the meantime.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Anybody spoken to ebuyer and confirmed there actually being sent today? seems odd that there the only shop selling them now.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
In the US it's UPS. It should say on the play store website.
[Nexus 7 General] davehasninjas:
What about the horrible reality of waking up to realize that your tracking number was just part of a dream... damn psyche
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
TNT in the UK - it states 1-2 days, so maybe tomorrow!

see here
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
Even worse
[Nexus 7 General] Timbermill:
Sweet - just got an email confirmation from ebuyer that mine is on the way. I wasn't expecting it until the 19th!
[Nexus 7 General] bradsh1:
The thing probably won't ship until next week anyway.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
Thanks for the replies. HOPEFULLY it ships tomorrow and it arrives Monday since i'm off on Mondays. The UPS store that it comes from is like 35 minutes away compared to 10 for FedEx.
[Nexus 7 General] anikeeet:
inb4 crapstorm
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
I did have it happen before, I don't remember if it was UPS or Fedex but it was specifically 2 day shipping and it was held up at one of the hubs where it would have coasted through on regular shipping. Maybe it was an isolated incident.
[Nexus 7 General] garyart1:
I have been folowing this thread for all 3K+ posts. I have read the complaints and the complaints about complainers. I have to say I can see both sides of the fence here. When I ordered on the 27th it said 2-3 weeks to ship. Did I hope sooner, yes. Most companies give themselves some wiggle room, few use it. But I can't "hold Google accountable" if it ships before 7/18. Will I refuse my N7 then delivered, no way. Did I hope by ordering through Google Play I would get the item before I could walk into a store and buy it, yes, especiailly paying extra for shipping but once again, GP did not promise me that. Will I be happy when I felt I supported GP and got screwed, nope but I won't be joining you guys who are rioting.

What I will say is that I beleive Goggle is shooting themselves in the foot with this launch. Google play is trying to challenge the big boys, Amazon and Apple. These two companies know how to launch a product and get it into the consumers hands. GP not so much. Keep in mind you can order both he iPAD and Knidle Fire and neither company charges shipping, Google $14. So willl I call GP and demand a refund of shipping costs, no. As long as they meet there obligations, I don't deserve anything. Would it be nice if GP realized they dropped the ball and offered something extra, yeah. Most of the masses will not realize this item was suppose to be launched on the 12th and is late. They will see they got it within the 2-3 weeks and be happy. It is the techies and develeopment community that Google caters to and it is this community that follows the news and blogs about this launch.

So if I do not receive it before 7/18, I will complain. Until that point I will wait patiently. If people pick them up from Gamestop, I will seeth but I will not call up a GP customer rep and harass them. Am I happy and impressed with GP so far, no. I would question ordering any devices through them in the future unless they get themselves together a little more. My 2 cents.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
I'll go ahead and say it for the other folks...

Pics or it didn't happen.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
I second this. However, maybe he really did get a notification. Everyone will probably jump on him and call him a liar and such since they don't have their shipping notification yet. Patience is a virtue, maybe Google is like.."We'll send the shipping notifications once the N7 is sitting at their door". Unlikely but I could see them doing something like that.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
I hate you!!!! (oh and pics or it never happened) :p
[Nexus 7 General] Mist17:
Here is Australia it's Fedex, US UPS, UK TNT. Whats Canada using?

Pff, my order @ ebuyer just got canceled cause i used a non secure paypal address.. ****ers.
[Nexus 7 General] danielsf:
Just joking :) or am I... :eek:
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
I see they still haven't fixed it, I'm getting a bad feeling about this especially since ebuyer are starting to ship them :(
[Nexus 7 General] carlpalmer:
Ebuyer has free next day delivery and 58 left in stock
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
Thats not good at all, I feel for you, maybe with your's being cancelled and the other guy saying he's got a shipping email really does me Ebuyer are the first ones processing and shipping these!!! :(
[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
I just spoke with "Keith" at Google Play and he stated that the earliest pre-orders, mine was ordered at around 1:00 pm CDT on the 27th, are to be shipped today or tomorrow. He stated I should be seeing shipping information "real soon". He seemed very knowledgeable, but who knows.
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
EBuyer website is tripping.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
ebuyer have 487 in stock with delivery tomorrow (friday) not happy :mad:
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
So who ordered the case with the tablet? You guys think it will be with the tablet shipment?

I can't believe they sold out of them so quickly.
[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
ebuyer.co.uk had 609 in stock at 8:04, now down to 438....20 minutes later...
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
oh so not happy with what Ebuyer is showing on their site!!

http://www.ebuyer.com/388913-asus-nexus-7-tablet-pc-90ok0mi1100550u
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
EBuyer has 0 in stock 2 minutes ago. Now 600 again. ASUS must be running on steam power.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Ebuyer has 450 in stock now

Good chance everyone is going to get them tomorrow or Monday seems more plausible now :highfive:
[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
In the ultimate mind f***, I get off the phone with Google and an email hits my inbox from Google Play Device Store... it was just a generic follow-up email from Google Play, good customer service but it made my heart jump lol. :(

[Nexus 7 General] Jean_Baptiste:
Impatience got to me :eek:, I ordered one of the eBuyer ones (still waiting on 2 GS orders), will report back with progress.

[Nexus 7 General] anikeeet:
On their site it does say delivery by Friday the 13th =/
[Nexus 7 General] spences10:
Promising, I have no idea whats going on with my card company as it's a complete pain in the arse to get through to them so I'm just going to sit tight and F5 on my Google Wallet

No I got a number for Google Play 0800 328 6081 I was holding for ~45 minutes before being connected

I'll beleive it when I see it

^^ as above ^^

I hope it does come for you though and eBuyer don't give you some flannel that it's been delayed and your money is the tied up waiting for it to be refunded

Who knows indeed :)

I must say I'm totally getting caught up in all this thread :D

I noticed that, started asking people in my office if they want to buy my one from GP off me for cost price (minus shipping) and just order one from Ebuyer, none of the miserable little gits will take me up on it!! :crying:
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Pobly bull**** until otherwise. Hasn't everything from cs been bull**** so far?
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
ebuyer website still has the side banner that states stock expected 19th July.

I stopped using ebuyer after a few items I purchased, showing massive stock, got delayed due to "no stock"

They may have changed since and the HMV UK date of the 16th does suggest that they probably have got stock.

Will be pee'd if they get them before the Google pre-orders, but at least we will know that they are out.

Good luck, grrrrrrrr
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
buy it off ebuyer and refuse shipment from GP when it comes :good:
[Nexus 7 General] thekillingtree:
There's a GameStop near me that opened at 830am. Curious if they got any (it's a mall store). Most other GameStop's seem to be opening by 10.

Waiting for people to start reporting purchases.
[Nexus 7 General] Nexus Phreak:
Just got the confirmation mail from Ebuyer UK. Horraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:

[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Call them and say, "Hey, I preordered a Nexus 7 from you guys. I was wondering if I could come in and pick it up right now"

report back!

Even if you didn't order it from them, I want to know what they have to say
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:

[Nexus 7 General] Jean_Baptiste:
Is this ebuyer?
[Nexus 7 General] KARNAG3:
Been stalking quietly for days now at this thread. Every morning this is the first thing I do. Every hour of the day at work this also what I'm doing...So many people like me are waiting for the Nexus 7 to arrive...everywhere on the internet, almost every hours you can get "news and rumors" about the release of the Google tablet. This isnt going to be like the XOOM, the community is going to be BIG! I just can't wait to see what the ROM developpers are gonna come up with! :victory: AWESOME!
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
Tax on a $250 order that you will likely pay from a local store is about $20. Cheaper than the shipping.

Also Google is NOT shooting themselves in the foot. These crybabies on this forum represent a tiny tiny tiny fraction of expected sales. Normal people just pick it up at some store when it catches their eye or hear about it somewhere. 13 year old internet whiners are not the target audience.

furthermore, a preorder does NOT mean you get it early. It simply means you WILL get one when it comes out. Local stores sometimes only get asmall shipment. A preorder secures the product after the launch day.

BTW the 12th is NOT the launch date. They should not and will not offer anything because "they dropped the ball". No ball was dropped. also they are giving away $25 of credit and a movie.

These kiddies need to STFU and open the box WHEN it gets here and simply be happy.
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
Yes, Ebuyer.
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
I could be doing the conversion wrong, but isn't ebuyer charging over $309 US dollars? That is more than GP. Or do Brits have to pay more for our toy?
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
I would but it's being shipped to my mates office, cos there's always security there to take delivery, I doubt they would refuse delivery for me!!
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
Cost me £199 from Ebuyer (next day delivery)
[Nexus 7 General] MSigler:
Yeah, it annoys me that they didn't send them on Wednesday if they're going to charge us for 2 day. They could have shipped them regular ground on a thursday and still had them arrive Monday. Oh well though.
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
looks like their format - full screen shot or digital pic so we can check the meta data please :-)
[Nexus 7 General] Nexus Phreak:
Ebuyer UK is showing

tomorrow

as the shipping date. Forget the banner :)

"Order within 10 hours for delivery on Friday, 13th July"
[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:
It sucks, Google wake up, we want our Nexus 7 NOW
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
Err no! That stock went from 609 down to 23 in 3 minutes then to 0 in another 10 seconds. Then the site wouldn't permit any more orders for a few minutes, then this second wave of stock appeared.
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
I hope since I order a case with mine it won't hold anything up. I was wondering if the cases were ready to go since they would be shipped together.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
last try, but you could try calling UPS once you receive the tracking number and tell them that you want to return to sender. Not sure if they'll let you, but if you're super desperate, you could look around on the UPS website. I'm sure they have info on that sort of thing
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
What is that in USD?
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Ask Google Now.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
We pay more, ebuyer is the same price as GP, just with free shipping.

10 hours would make it almost 12am, can't see how they can ship then for next day delivery.
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
I will, tomorrow!
[Nexus 7 General] adomanico01:
Yeah, that doesn't smell 10 kinds of fishy at all.
[Nexus 7 General] freesoul27:

[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
Sucks UK has to pay more, but that is what you get for making your international phones so expensive :p lol
[Nexus 7 General] DBJohnston0104:
Ebuyer now shows 472 in stock and fast delivery.
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
A friend I know bought theirs for $280 with tax and delivery. So just an extra $20/30. Sucks though.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Well I wonder what the hold up is from GP? They obviously have the product.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
Nah it's fine, I've waited this long, I can wait a few more days, moving house soon so really should spend the weekend sorting through my wardrobes\cupboards etc and get stuff packed, having my Nexus 7 will only distract me!!

Ebuyer stock goes up and down every second
[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
Probably Because its still 5am in California Well closer to 6 actually but still they cant do anything until they get to work. Its 2pm in the UK so it pretty much a time zone thing every one just needs to calm down. lol
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
Tempted to order another one through Ebuyer.co.uk to get one tomorrow, although I'm not really buying that 'free delivery tomorrow' line quite yet. I can see another email going out later to the effect of a retracting that!

Still no movement on my GP order from the 27th - slightly miffed that I would have paid an extra £10 for delivery directly from Google Play when Ebuyer's looking like they will deliver ahead of Google Play AND for free.

Google - sort your junk out.
[Nexus 7 General] Brac20:
I'd like mine to come by Monday being a teacher. My 7 week summer holiday starts on Monday so it'd be nice to have a new toy to keep me busy. Nothing as yet from GP, but I didn't place my order until the 4th so we'll see how soon I get mine.
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
Yes, that's my point with ebuyer, nice web site but sometimes the dynamic features are a bit screwy.

When I had my issues with them they stated that the online stock display was not dynamically linked to the warehouse and was for indication only!

I am sure it is better now.

One thing that does concern me though - why not put up 2000 units (or whatever they have) and then count down to zero? Is the constant addition of another few hundred when empty a standard web site model?
[Nexus 7 General] garyart1:
------------------------------

Boy, someone has his panties in a knot. Seems like you have more anger over the "13 year old whiners" that they have over this launch. You should calm down and ease off on the name calling. I doubt any of the people who you are insulting called you anything.

BTW I paid tax and shipping. Amazon, Apple and all the B&Ms charges tax but guess what, no shipping.

And yes you are correct that July 12 was never a official launch day but it has been suggested that it was a previously planned launch day. Saying that, why can't a company as big as Google give an actual launch date when we are probably days away. Something is wrong here with their system.
[Nexus 7 General] DagsJT:
Maybe the stock is being scanned in manually?
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
I wouldn't completely trust the ebuyer website, its all automated, including stock & emails.

As for Google, they said they are shipping early orders (such as mine) out today & tomorrow and I should receive tracking information soon. :-)
[Nexus 7 General] charlesky:
$249 = £161.68 + 20% VAT = £194.03

So we pay about £5 more, which is probably swallowed up by the customs duty on electronics, which is around 5%.
[Nexus 7 General] chronicle:
Ebuyer.co.uk looks legit - look at their Twitter feed:

https://twitter.com/Ebuyer

Very limited free stock on nexus 7 today only!! buy yours today for free next day delivery at ebuyer. http://bit.ly/LiH1Im

Retweeted by Ebuyer.com
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Yeah, ebuyer charge £199 whilst Google charge £208.99 because of delivery charge.

However, I'd rather buy directly from Google for the direct support / replacement policy
[Nexus 7 General] JonnyFoxtrot:
Just put my order in with Ebuyer, fingers crossed their Friday delivery time is true!!!
[Nexus 7 General] Roachie:
Arrg.. my mom's creditcard wasnt accepted either.. "Not a UK CC" .... what an asses!

Any1 got an idea what now ? im out of options... :(
[Nexus 7 General] theoneofgod:
Since it's a Google device, it doesn't matter where you buy it, you will get the above support.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
You think so?

You still have to deal through ebuyer, and they ain't the easiest company to deal with.

Took me over a month to get a replacement on a DVD drive I received that arrived dented.

But if no defects, they are cheap.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjm00:
There are so many people blowing this thread up, I wonder how much work is actually getting done. I can't say anything, I'm just as guilty as everyone else. In all seriousness though, complaining and calling everyone names is not going to make your N7 get to your door any faster. Keep your blood pressure down, have a glass of water, and cherish the last few days you will have to see the sun. As soon as your device gets to your door, you know you'll be a hermit. :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] ande_uk:
i hope ebuyer have been given permission from google to start selling because they are going to be shipping today for delivery tomorrow too..
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Doesn't sound like they have,

12th was the original date that a lot of companies have stated has been pushed back by Google.

Seems ebuyer are sending them out anyway.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
I don't see Google being much better, they'll probably just fob you off to ASUS,

In what world does Amazon charge tax?
[Nexus 7 General] vxv831:
Why wood ebuyer listen to google? if they sell in advance, will google ban them from selling a device in the future?

If Ebuyer are asses, I can try Google, then ASUS, so it should be ok.
