Same. Australian, 16GB, ordered 30th June 5:12pm AEST :laugh:

Was charged over night, but still waiting on Google Wallet to change and an e-mail to come through.
[Nexus 7 General] zaclimon:
Oh I totally forgot for NCIX :D. I don't even try furtureshop, bestbuy or staples (It's suicide!!! :eek:) Thanks though.
[Nexus 7 General] Creoden:
If your order was like mine, your payment went to a Canadian company for their product and you paid the provincial and federal taxes, there should be no brokerage fees, and if so, they should be covered by Google Canada.
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
As long as you don't open the box you can have UPS pick up the Google box or go to a UPS store and return it within 5 days.

Finally
[Nexus 7 General] munimisu:
Im from Canada. Ordered 8GB on 27th during I/O.

Just got email from google about shipment. UPS tracking have no info, just that label is created. And they used UPS standard service. I will request for refund. I hope i get it soon :D

Feel like they didnt forgot about us at the end.. :D
[Nexus 7 General] Montaberne:
Well, some guy at the Atwater Futureshop told me they should have some in store friday. Good luck pal!
[Nexus 7 General] chrisbd1:
No store had 8GB so I wasn't going store to store. Didn't want to deal with driving around.

Ordered 6July and this unicorn machine is on it's way! Had it shipped to work so I can show this sexy beast to the Apple peeps :D Tomorrow I shall be a happy camper.
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
I think they are working in reverse order. The earlier you ordered the later you are getting your shipping info. 11:32cst June 27 and I haven't heard squat yet. No case ordered. I think my card has been charged but I can't tell if it is a charge or a preauth since my stupid citi account has not updated since 7/11.
[Nexus 7 General] l0ngxnguyen:
Glad to see our neighbors up north finally getting some updates.
[Nexus 7 General] Beta Max:
How did you know what plane and all the info to track it???
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
There's an Atwater here in California too, in the San Joaquin Valley, anyway, just an FYI to break up the drama :D LOL
[Nexus 7 General] IIIPowerIII:
Yup ups won't charge us.

Mine is shipped from Toronto, Ontario. To Québec. The 20$ shipping price is all you'll pay. It's not coming from the US
[Nexus 7 General] Montaberne:
How do you know they used standard service?

And why would you get a refund? I wanna know too if I can get some money from Google! :D
[Nexus 7 General] rwb2073:
For those Canadians who have little /spotty / no info...

I ordered an 8GB (just the device) from Google Play Canada on Jun 27, 2012 7:05 PM NDT

I got the confirmation email straight away

Nothing happened until today...

First, early today my cc was charged (watching available credit, not the actual transaction)

Then, this morning the order / transaction went to the top at the Play Store (Account > My Orders)

Next, just now, email from Google saying it shipped with a UPS tracking number (which doesn't work as yet)

In the extreme east of Canada, we have no UPS trucks - the stuff is handled by Purolator.

Here's the funny bit. If there's nothing due to collect on the package, and there's no one home / no answer, they'll leave it outside!

Trying to use the UPS site to indicate that you want packages to your address held at the depot is an exercise in frustration.

So I'm hoping there ARE additional fees. :) If not, forget about Friday... I may never see it!
[Nexus 7 General] Montaberne:
Ahahah, sorry. Atwater in Montreal ^_^
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
Lol I know, just making conversation, I'm punchy after all this drama :D
[Nexus 7 General] needshelp101:
This is what pisses me off. I ordered mine June 29th. My dad ordered his on July 12th. He got his shipping confirmation yesterday. And i still didn't get mine! And we live in the same f'en house! Wtf is up with that? Stupid google!
[Nexus 7 General] ten_fold:
My account appears to have bee charged, and order updated to 17th July on the My devices page. Ordered on the 3rd July Google Play UK. No further info as of yet.
[Nexus 7 General] zaclimon:
I imagine the lineup. :crying:
[Nexus 7 General] mihirdshah1:
I highly doubt they would let anyone claim their package at a hub location versus a local UPS store .. anyway its probably not worth it with all the rain and traffic today..
[Nexus 7 General] Redth:
I'm guessing it got charged today as I still don't see the charge...
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
Your elders get theirs first, I'm 40 and I ordered on the 9th and mine is coming tomorrow, us old people get some goodies now and then too :D lol
[Nexus 7 General] mtfsandlin:
Mine went from Louisville to Lexington, and it will probably go to Corbin tonight, and I will have it in my hands tomorrow. :D funny how I live three hours away from Louisville, but it takes two days to reach my house. xD oh well, I'm excited.
[Nexus 7 General] skadude66:
Sadly.. I guess it's still a really good sign that people from Canada are getting emails! I'm hoping to get mine soon. I just want news!! :mad:
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
I've gone into our local UPS and FedEx locations (Ukiah, CA) and picked up packages. This is a rural area too, maybe it's the bigger cities that don't like doing that. No rain here, it's clear and 64 degrees, puuuuuufect :D

Edit-We have staffed UPS and FedEx locations in Ukiah, but no UPS Stores, we do have authorized shipping centers though, like Staples.
[Nexus 7 General] Metallice:
I can't believe that if I had waited 9 days (9!!!) to order, I would have shipping info by now. Unfortunately, because I ordered 7/5 (USA, no accessories, 16GB) and Google seems to hate that date, I'm stuck waiting with no movement or activity.

Google play is officially a joke. How they cannot understand chronological order is beyond me. And no, there is nobody to blame but Google. I don't think I'll be buying any music, books, magazines, or devices from their store in the near future. Hopefully Google will get it together.

Dissapointing considering this is Google.
[Nexus 7 General] marcellus7:
:eek: I think this confirms that Google is shipping them using a random number generator

[Nexus 7 General] Metallice:
Yesterday? You ordered yesterday. I can't take this anymore.
[Nexus 7 General] mentalcase:
That is a good idea. I'm sure google would refund the charges minus shipping right?
[Nexus 7 General] kalipedia:
Honestly, I've been following this thread (aka this madness) for days. I'm a patient, understanding woman. But this nonsense about shipping orders for people who bought within the past few days before early purchasers is irritating. I ordered July 4th and have no charge and heard nothing. Others who ordered on IO day with no info are rightly more pissed. I simply cannot fathom that a company full of so called geniuses can screw something like this up so badly. Worst of all is there will be no apology, no refund of shipping, no placating those who are devoted to this os. Google's mantra of don't be evil is grossly failing. And I say that as an ethics professor. Sorry... had to finally let out my own little rant. Enjoy the little beast when you lucky people get it!

I believe they are saying shipping is refunded on a refusal but I don't know for certain.
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
That pretty much confirms that they caught up on the 8GBs.

[Nexus 7 General] Montaberne:
And they want us to order a Nexus Q after all that...
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
If you want to get on a watch list... :D
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
That would be the case if they handed the shipping guy a stack of orders, oldest and supposed to ship first on top and he started picking them placing them at the bottom of the pile, passing his work to the next guy with the newest orders now on top and the oldest orders at the bottom of the pile.

ROFL.
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
The Q will fail on its own. Way too overpriced.
[Nexus 7 General] Eeescape5:
Both Google and UPS are going to get an earful tomorrow if I don't see a Nexus 7 at my doorstep. I've had the same "A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated." message since 6:40 A.M and still no green bar, delivery date, or any type of indication that my Nexus 7 even hit Kentucky. Nice 2 day shipping.
[Nexus 7 General] kalipedia:
Worst of all is there will be no apology, no refund of shipping, no placating those who are devoted to this os.

I truly hope your optimism is well-founded! It would go a long way if Google ate the shipping costs for dissatisfied pre-orderers, but they are a public company, beholden to their shareholders above their customers and as such I doubt there will be any customer apology or other such love.

You are wrong as the speed is based on the real positions of the plane based on GPS coordinates and the time between measurements. Wind has nothing to do with that.

[Nexus 7 General] Beta Max:

[Nexus 7 General] fast1fred:
I ordered June 27th at 2.29 pm, during IO. 16gb, no accessories. Toronto, Canada.

Have not received a charge or notice at all. Nothing. So disappointing after seeing someone who just placed an order yesterday already get shipping notice.
[Nexus 7 General] hashibahoohaa:
Its OK mate, relax. Its more like they are quickly fixing as many tabs as they can while still trying to hit their 2-3 weeks date after launch. They lost significant time fixing N7 tabs for our US buddies, after all it would look too bad if the country of launch got as many lemons. Now they are fixing our Canadian tabs, mine was pre-ordered on 28th, I suspect the screen flicker issue would have resolved by now, now they are checking yellow spots, dead pixels, adding support for OTG out of the box etc ;)
[Nexus 7 General] Beta Max:
I wouldnt be surprised a ton of people aren't triggering Homeland Security sirens with all the flight tracking going on. Haha
[Nexus 7 General] brangalm:
Wahoooooo!!!! Got my shipping email today!

Pre ordered right after the keynote. Edmonton, AB, Canada. 8 GB.

So damn excited !
[Nexus 7 General] ddialogue:
Welcome to the club! You, me, dockinj, and bleclair are gunning to be last to get our N7's shipped! (6/28 for me; 16gb + case)
[Nexus 7 General] Plexicle:
He ordered the 8GB. A (lot) less people ordered 8GB. They simply caught up on them first, that's all. Not out to shaft you, I would expect yours to ship definitely by EOD tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] smirkis:
good luck. my shipping lab was created on Thursday. just updated today that it was finally scanned. delivery tomorrow. until its scanned, its not on its way
[Nexus 7 General] leebo:
So I only ordered ONE Nexus 7, and received ONE shipping notice.

However, when I check the UPS site, it shows TWO shipments, BOTH coming from Louisville Kentucky. One is 1.6 lbs, the other is 1.7 lbs.

Lucky for me I picked up a two day job so I guess I'll get four delivery attempt notices instead of a tablet!
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
We should think of something for the "winner." :D
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
When I lived in NJ, I lived close to one of the main UPS facilities in the entire area. If I called there with a tracking number, they'd take the package off the truck and you could pick it up at a certain time that evening.
[Nexus 7 General] klyang88:
all i gotta say is this is the last device im ordering straight from google when its a new release. F google and its lame shipment. i ordered the 16 gb on the 28th of june and still havent heard sh!t i also live in the damn u.s!. i have the right to be this F-en pissed.
[Nexus 7 General] rwb2073:
How were others in Canada able to order during IO? I seem to remember it giving an error for a few hours when trying to add the item to the cart. Or was it working > not working > working again? sheesh.

Besides the alleged "Monday shipping starts" story, there seems to be notable real leaks/rumors.

[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Fedex delivers on Saturday. Its going to be so much worse when the shipping emails come. Then its watching the tracking "Mine is in Atlanta, its been there for 3 hours" "How long does it take to drive from Nashville to Atlanta".

I think USPS has to be the worst. The last few times, the delivered status has updated 4 hours after it gets delivered. They must not have the constant communication the UPS/FedEx trucks have or something.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
From what I've read on Play Store, their 2 day shipping is through UPS. Although I bought mine through Gamestop, so hopefully they'll have them at the same time people start receiving them.

Although, Around here UPS turns their packages over to USPS, so even if I did order through play store and it came UPS, I would still get it Saturday.

EDIT: Although I'm speaking for the US Play Store, I don't know about other parts of the world.
[Nexus 7 General] brokentoaster24:
Something tells me they'll ship Wednesday, just so they'll arrive on Friday the 13th... Because google seems like they'd do that
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Ok yeah I see that on the website. Yeah Thursday shipping would be cruel. I am leaning towards today (to meet Staple's 12th estimate) or Wednesday being exactly 2 weeks from the I/O keynote.
[Nexus 7 General] P1 Wookie:
I'm still stressed by the Play Store right now though, because I also bought a Galaxy Nexus, and the charge is just sitting there pending for days now, teasing me. Everytime I get an e-mail I get my hopes crushed -.- haha

[Nexus 7 General] PridgNYC:
Considering that is about the only way to refuse delivery from ups when it is not 'signature required', that's probably a good idea. My UPS guys never ring the doorbell, and just drop the package on the front stoop, although I have managed to train a couple of them to leave it on the back porch where it won't grow legs, more often than not, it is the drop and run on the front stoop (where it will grow legs and walk away).

[Nexus 7 General] BigArea:
I agree this has gotten out of hand but let's consider the possibility that Google was prepared for this and just had a server crash or got hacked. (Disclaimer: this is purely speculation on the side of reason. I have no affiliation with or interest in any of the involved companies or their afilliates/rivals). They've demonstrated time and again that they can handle large scale projects and relatively speaking this isn't their idea of unwieldy. The only difference this time is they gave themselves a public deadline. It would take a very simple slip up to crash a customer facing server and loose a few hundred orders. It would then take a few more days to recover that data and put it into the pipeline. Something like this could explain the seemingly random delays that we have seen.

There has also been speculation that the this was a last ditch effort for quality control or that the oem had something to do with the delay.

Bottom line: Google has done a poor job of communicating but will,ultimately , deliver the product you ordered. So, somebody walked into a store and bought it before one was shipped to you. Congratulations, you have payed a price for being an early adopter. In the grand scheme of things, it is not that high of a price.

I'm not trying to fan the flames here or point a finger at either side of this argument or even be an apologist for Google. I only wish to present another perspective.

Who knows, they could be laughing all the way to the bank on us this time. I doubt it, but its possible.

Some advice for life: pick your battles. If you think something like this is worth a class action lawsuit or a complete refund or as much then you are part of the problem, not the solution.
[Nexus 7 General] PridgNYC:
