We preordered July 5th from Gamestop, the told us we were second wave and no way would we get the device before august...then got a text this morning...I think someone seriously f*d up but hey, it's on them at that point.

Thank so much for posting this! I JUST bought one! I hadn't even heard there was one out there, and this is similar to the folio that we had for our ipad (which was traded for the nexus 7).
[Nexus 7 General] Ayenn13:
Thread winner for the afternoon! :highfive:

Look at you being all clever -n- ****. :D
[Nexus 7 General] liquiddawn:
Well, I preordered mine from Gamestop on 7/11. I didn't get a text to come pick it up this morning but I went there at 10AM when they opened up and bought my Nexus 7!!!

I just told her that I had received the text and gave her my receipt. They only had 2 in stock for the two preorders before mine and I wasn't supposed to get mine until their next shipment. I do feel kinda bad that someone today isn't going to get theirs for a little while. LOL

Here's my Nexus 7!!!!

Had the weekend all planned, me and my Nexus 7 were going to go the store, jog through the park, read under a tree.. I'm hearing "so happy togetherrrrrrrrrrrrrrr."

But no. No, Google says NO NEXUS 7 FOR YOU early pre-orderer. :D

(I guess Friday is setting in.)

I pre-ordered June 27th, btw.

GAMESTOP Hiram, Georgia

Ok this is funny, I called the local Gamestop here in Hiram, GA (it is west of Atlanta in Paulding County GA) and the guy answered the phone "Thank you for calling Gamestop where you can now pre-order the new Google Nexus 7" to which I responded "I am sorry did you say Pre-Order?, you do not have any in stock right now?" and he said no, if you order from Gamestop now you will get them around August 17. So at least here Gamestop has none, and if there is even one person that reads this and is less than a 3 hour drive from Hiram, or Dallas, GA I would be SHOCKED! But I will take a Thanks if it helps.

Calling to the local Sams club's now.
[Nexus 7 General] ShadyShane31:
yeah, that's true lol
[Nexus 7 General] iridium21:
Yeah, got it in one!
[Nexus 7 General] fatimusprime:
So that I understand this correctly, Google is charging cards for orders of 8GB models or orders that include an 8GB model? I ordered a 16GB on the 28th and no change yet.
[Nexus 7 General] feelinfroggy23:

[Nexus 7 General] hawleyncsu:
just called my local sams club, they have 3 in stock. She said she would hold one for me.

I preordered from Google on July 2nd, which means im not on the first way of shipments. So lets see, I can pick one up today for $246 plus tax with no shipping, or I can wait until next wednesday or thursday and keep the one I paid $280 for from google.

I think its an easy decision, especially since google said they would NOT be refuning the shipping cost.

no one really knows at this point.....rumor currently is they are going to ship the 8GB versions first and then work on the orders of 16GB. not sure why they chose this method.....but oh well, i wouldn't expect a charge or Email until Monday and that would mean delivery on Wednesday...

750 pages!

Somewhere along the line (around page 200 or so?) someone made the comment speculating whether or not we'd make it to 750 before google shipment notifications start being sent out.

Im now actually happy that i wont be getting mine today and i'm also happy that some people where able to get them in B&M stores today. Reason being, rooting and unlocking methods will be put to the test today and this weekend. so by the time i get mine it will be easier to figure out what the best method is.

Also i'm getting a new Headphone Amp today and now i have time to play with that this weekend. :D

I ordered my 16gb in the 29th. no charge or anything yet.

Also i dont view this as a major failure for google. It clearly stated on the GP store that it would ship in 1 to 2 weeks when i ordered it.
[Nexus 7 General] Dradien:
Got a charged notification on my card, but no shipping emails or anything, and nothing on My UPS.

Ordered 6/30, 8GB model around 12 EST.
[Nexus 7 General] Ayenn13:
I called both GS in my town. They only have them available if you preorderd them. If I had known bla bla bla bla...

I won't even bother calling Sam's. I am willing to just wait for the dang UPS delivery instead of given Wal-Mart any of my money.

Heck, I'm not even wishing for anything with this anymore. I won't blame anyone but I will say the lack of reactive communication from G is miffing but not a daal beaker for me. I just won't get my hopes up in any way when ordering physical merchandise from them.

On the plus side, the UPS station where I live is the regional hub. There is a butt hair's width of a chance I will actually end up getting it today.

Just spoke to Google Play customer service

the guy basically said the same thing as above. They started processing orders this morning and shipping would be happening today. They're shipping in the order they received the preorders. I ordered July 10th and he said mine would go out most likely monday or tuesday.
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
has anyone's 16gb order shipped?

i'm not in a rush since i have my I/O version still but one was supposed to be a gift for my sister's birthday, and the idea that i could have gone to gamestop and sweet talked an employee into giving me one early kind of irks me.

My card just got charged (well, it's in the pending transactions list, and it wasn't there before). I ordered from the 8 GB version from the play store on the 6th. No e-mail though. I actually called Google yesterday to cancel, and Steven told me they would try and intercept the delivery but otherwise I should refuse delivery if I want a refund. I also went to Gamestop yesterday and pre-ordered one there yesterday after reading from here some of them had it in stock.

Only issue is, I think I bought a $250 piece of cardboard.

[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
Why does it seem like Google is unable to process both the 8GB and 16GB orders at the same time?! There seems like no reason why all orders, regardless of item could be processed at the same time. I am beginning to think it is just one guy in the shipping department and Bill has been sick all week...

I tried to call my local Sam's at lunch but when I asked for the Nexus 7 the lady sounded beyond confused.
[Nexus 7 General] sqs1shu:
what a drama it is that is going on here.

I am a bit disappointed that my play store order (16G ordered on June 27 midnight) has not been shipped. Don't mind others have theirs from B&M, but $14 shipping is a bit too much if I can get one in B&M before preorder.

Just called Samsclub here locally and was transferred a couple times. Bottom line is they say YES they have them in stock.....BUT Google has put a hold on them until the 15th or 16th. Is this true? It is a 15-20 minute drive for me, and I will do the drive is someone here can guide me on what to say or if it is at least possible that by talking to the manager they may sell me one.

Quite rude, but very true.

If that chap who took the pic in his BMW at 30+ mph crashed and smashed up his legs, he would probably successfully sue Google for damages.

Just needs to say that Google forced him to drive to game stop as they could not get his pre order to him on time, the stress and euphoria caused by his new tablet forced him to make a reckless decision to take a pic as soon as possible and he probably spilt a hot cup of coffee on his baby maker too - reckon $15m damages.

Well I'm an ITP'er here in metro Atlanta so I'm certainly within a 3hr drive of Hiram. Something tells me if any local store does have stock they are willing to sell it'll be gone fast. At this point I'm content to wait for my GP order I placed on 6/28 to ship even though I won't be able to get it until 7/21 at the earliest since I'll have to get it delivered to my leasing office due to my having to go out of state early monday and not return until late friday :(

I apologize but I wasn't rude in any way. I was just excited to receive my Nexus 7. It's not my fault that gamestop failed to have a set in stone way of handling preorders.

[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
possible, also, why not just refuse delivery of the google store device?

Only thing stopping me for running to Sam's now is the idea that maybe, just maybe Google thinks they handled this in a lesss than desirable fashion and gives something for it (which i doubt happens, since it's still not 7/18, which is really the deadline date)

BLASPHEMY

nut's... hard to believe your order was processed before mine, even though you ordered 8 days later than me....really questioning that extra $50 I spent for the 16gb
[Nexus 7 General] drpfenderson:
Just wait. A couple days won't matter - seriously.

Everyone (not necessarily you) seems to think that pre-order = pre-delivery. As if it's "I ordered first, I get it first". It's a reservation. You reserved a unit in case they ran out. You were promised a unit, and it will be shipped to you. You're taking a gamble by going third-party, because you cannot guarantee that they will have a unit, or sell it to you.
[Nexus 7 General] 18t:
In what state did Sam's say they will sell tomorrow?
[Nexus 7 General] bsquared397:
But it's worth a try if it costs less. If anything, he can either refuse delivery or sell the GP one on ebay for face value. That's what I'm doing at least.
