Other Canadians know better but I pretty much guarantee 2 day air can't apply when it involves multiple carriers, border crossing, and customs.

Does your UPS tracking form actually say the service is two day air?
[Nexus 7 General] Sandman2749:
Mother frakkers! You're right. It says "UPS standard"! Cork soakers! Now, that's just dishonest business! If the Play store says 2 day then I expect 2 day. Son of a...

[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
Yep, one thing you can't accuse Google on is being short of high priced lawyers.
[Nexus 7 General] fishingfon:
WTF,

the play store is showing 2 to 3 weeks for pre orders again :/

does that only apply to new orders placed today?

or will that effect my pre order i placed a few weeks back?

see attached screen

It wouldn't be ironic, it would be exactly what Apple does. Bash on the competitors instead of shining through by being innovative and providing a good (reasonably priced) product.

It's probably for ORDERS (not pre-orders anymore...) placed from today onward.
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
That's not a pre-order, that's a buy. The text in the button is different to how it was before Saturday. Latest for us Aussies is

all

pre-orders shipped by 17/7... which doesn't give them long considering the 17th is close to being over.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Nothing on the picture says pre-order. I think that now they are regular orders, and that is the estimate for new ones.

Anyone waiting in the UK, time to get real. Nothing is going to happen until Thursday. I reckon google have pushed back the UK release by a week.
[Nexus 7 General] aka757:
For those of you who have received shipping e-mails, were the funds held by Google subsequently released again before shipping, until the permanent charge came?

I ordered the 8 GB model without the case on 7/6. Up until a few hours ago I had the pre-authorization charge on my card, and my available credit was reduced by the held funds. I recently checked to see the progress on the order, and the pre-authorization charge was gone, and my available credit was increased by a similar amount as the order total (~$230). Now, the thing is that I called Google about 5 days ago to cancel the order, but they said they could only try and intercept the UPS shipment. I haven't received any e-mails about anything yet. Is it possible that Google won't ship out my N7? I hope the fact that my held funds are back means that the permanent charge is coming soon, and that my tablet will ship soon (and I'll get the confirmation e-mail soon as well).

If it makes any difference, I live in Houston, TX.

[Nexus 7 General] Eric_Eric_Eric:
I ordered the 16GB N7 and the case on the 27th and have not been charged or emailed. Absolutely nothing (other than the instant receipt when I preordered on the 27th). Should I be worried? Is it the case that's slowing it down? If I don't get the tracking number email after tomorrow, I'm calling to complain. This is a really botched release.
[Nexus 7 General] foxorroxors:
dude the moneys left the bank and nexus 7 has moved to the top of play store, they'll be here by the end of the week, (hopes)
[Nexus 7 General] glowworm62:
So are Tuesday and Friday. :confused:
[Nexus 7 General] ASSMO:
If you go to the nexus 7 preorder page now it says that there shipping in 2-3 weeks. This is so effed up...I dont understand why they couldnt just ship to retailers and let us preorder there.

Now I am all shambled. I am in Canada and have gotten nothing...Ordered July 5th.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Wikipedia has a long article on pre-authorization charges. Basically it is all up to your bank. Pre-auths normally fall off after 3-8 days,

although credit card ones can last up to 30. At no time does Google get their hands on pre-auths.

Pretty much all of us had our pre-auths age off, with the real charge done at time of shipment.
[Nexus 7 General] gr0wlithee:
Still nothing here.

Pre-ordered 7/4, 16gb no accessories. I'm in Philadelphia. :/

If it comes on Thursday, I'll have to leave a note saying to hold it at my local UPS pickup area. :(

[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
Dude, I think the "2-3 weeks" is for new orders.. as you can see, it now says 'ADD TO CART' rather than 'PRE-ORDER'... All pre-orders up until probably end of last week should all be shipping by the 17th (as per what the Google Play support site mentions: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2667319&topic=2411735&ctx=topic)
[Nexus 7 General] Glencairn:

[Nexus 7 General] ASSMO:
I know man I am just saying that why would anyone preorder now! When its not even a pre-order lol. Thats all. My Bestbuy and Futureshop are getting them in by Friday.
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
I'm I'm the same boat pretty much, ordered July 4. GooGle said all existing preorders would ship by Tuesday (Wednesday at the latest, they said a day later). I swear to god, if mine doesn't ship out tomorrow I am going to be in such a mood... I was so sure something would happen today, I am really starting to think I may not get it for weeks. Especially when I read posts from people who ordered it on the 27 or around there and still havent received jack.
[Nexus 7 General] mynameisfyl:
Is anyone else showing their package still in Louisville?

I have yet to see a departure scan after the initial origin scan at 11:36AM. It still shows expected delivery as of tomorrow by end of business, so I'm just hoping that this is just something on UPS' end.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
UPS does a LOT of their flights like 1AM to 3AM.

If they say delivery tomorrow - I would trust them.
[Nexus 7 General] mynameisfyl:
I sort of thought as much, but I remember a whole bunch of people saying they saw their departure scans only a couple hours later.
[Nexus 7 General] TaintedByte:
Because it's not a preorder, that's what he's trying to say. It's a purchase, where does that page claim you are preordering?
[Nexus 7 General] spovat:
Ordered on Jun 27, still not charged, no emails. Bought from staples and had it delivered to my local store for pickup... People were in there asking for it but it's not for sale yet in stores so they were all being turned away. I definitely got a handful of nasty stares as I walked out with it. Side note: this thing is absolutely beautiful, awesome, and buttery smooth. It will be worth the wait.
[Nexus 7 General] jordain:
I tried canceling my preorder last week, but they said it was too late because they were already getting it ready to ship. I pre-ordered on June 27th, but I still haven't even been billed yet.

[Nexus 7 General] AntzGoose:
I'm not sure if anybody can answer this, but my original play store order was cancelled so I had to preorder again. Well google received my order on July 13th right after midnight. At the time I ordered it still said pre-order (I think) but I know that it changed to buy now on that day. Will Google treat my order as a normal preorder or will it ship when it comes available like the normal orders?
[Nexus 7 General] tommillski:
How did you find out? I was charged last night but no email yet.

Hopefully they are sitting together as I'm also from Wiltshire!

[Nexus 7 General] Jiggavolt:
My 16gb arrives tomorrow!! Ordered on the 27th. The shipping status changed to "Out for delivery" at just after midnight - that's the earliest I've ever seen that happen!
[Nexus 7 General] EVO DL:
Exactly. I think it depends on the character of each area and the practice that the local UPS adopted for that area. I live in a "half" doorman building - doorman from 4pm to 12am, and the UPS driver knows to come between 4 and 5, and the doorman ALWAYS signs for all the packages. But on the other hand, sometimes the doorman needs to go someplace (crapping? :confused: ) and the UPS guy comes, and if I am on his list he buzz my intercom. I buzz him in, and he just leaves all the packages there in the lobby.

When I lived in a no doorman building, the drivers would buzz all the buzzers until someone will open the front door, and then they would just drop all the boxes in the space between the first and second door. - If that building gets a lot of boxes regularly, that's what they'll do. But then if that building rarely gets shipments, they'd live a sticker.

Basically, it looks like this is up to the driver to make his decision. It doesn't look like there are any hard rules here.

"

You placed an order with Google Inc. on Jul 5. Google Wallet sent a copy of this receipt to XXXXXXX"

July 5th. 16 GB. No Accessories. USA. NOTHING. No e-mail. No charge. No tracking info. Google Play not updated.

This is seriously maddening that some people that ordered THIS MORNING have their shipping confirmations already and I don't.

Worst part is there's a Staples and Office Depot near me that both have them IN STOCK, but I can't afford to part with two charges right now.

Can't cancel my order with Google, even though there's no charge and it hasn't been shipped yet.

I really don't get it. I'm not one to call and complain, but I'm giving them until 7/8 PM tomorrow my time and if nothing, I'm going to call. RIdiculous.

Play Store Update

Some point over night the play store went from 2-3 weeks for shipping to 1-2.
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
Yes, although it's basically impossible to derive meaning from it because:

1) If they're shipping all preorders at the same time then this means they're still on schedule.

2) If they aren't shipping all of them at the same time, it means that they predict that they'll have enough stock to fill orders made starting now in the next 1-2 weeks
[Nexus 7 General] RBFesquire:
Just a quick thought.

When you download an app on the Play Store (online) it asks which device you would like to send it to. Now, if you linked your shiny new Nexus 7 to your Google account, will it not show up as a device to send apps to? So when they have activated the N7, it could be ready to ship. Or will it only do that once the machine has been turned on? Since it is linked already from manufacturer, I thought it only reasonable for it to show.

I only thought of this as tablet apps are now showing online, and I am sure they were not there before :-)

*cue checking and half downloading apps just in case.
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
It will only show up once you yourself turn it on
[Nexus 7 General] ky0nkyon:
Bloody hell, Google sent me an email and i was so excited but it turns out to be a satisfaction survey for my inquiry. :(

[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
What do you mean by tablet apps are now showing online?
[Nexus 7 General] aindow:
I thought the Nexus 7 would only show in your devices list once you've turned it on and entered your Google account details? I'm sure they (Google) won't automatically activate them at point of sale as people may have bought the Nexus 7 as a gift for someone else.
[Nexus 7 General] CooLoserTech:
LOL
[Nexus 7 General] Brigaid:
This is true. Anything else is just people guessing. Your Nexus 7 will not show up in the online Play Store menus until you insert your password at the startup screen upon initial boot.
[Nexus 7 General] bisto321:
There was an option to link it to your Play account when purchasing - presumably you still have to enter your password, but the rest should be done out of the box.
[Nexus 7 General] Fall Guy:

Well played, Google. What a shambles.
[Nexus 7 General] mynameisfyl:
I do believe they refer to that as a pre-authorization to make sure the card is legit. It drops off after a few days and they'll really charge you once the order ships.

At least that's the way it happened for me.
[Nexus 7 General] shakinginboots:
I'm right behind you buddy. It's so maddening. Maybe Google doesn't like our money? I'm honestly not sure how they could mess shipping up? Goodness. It seems like such a basic concept. Gahhh

[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
The 2-3 weeks shipping timeframe applies to any orders from now on.. it does not apply to pre-orders.. if you look at the Play Store / Google Wallet Help Centre, it clearly states that pre-orders would be shipping by 17th July: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2667319&topic=2411735&ctx=topic

They shouldn't have promised him 2nd day air shipping for sure, but to be fair it is going to Canada, and has to go through customs and all, so the delay is certainly to be expected. I have a feeling Google isn't geared up for shipping to areas outside the US.
[Nexus 7 General] ASSMO:

[Nexus 7 General] noneabove:
Yeah I saw that :/ but ups for my area seems rather fast.. When I ordered my laptop I got told 10-30 days, I got it 3 days later..

When did you order it?

I ordered on 6/27 a few hours after the Keynote and saw the pre-authorization charge the next day. It fell off after about 5 days and I saw nothing else until Friday afternoon when they finally charged me for real. Then I got my shipping notice from Google Friday around 10:30PM only to have it update this morning about 9 AM. Supposedly it'll be delivered tomorrow, but at this point I'm just glad UPS has it.

Well if they are shipping from Singapore to Australia then they are still a couple of hours behind us but yeah it's starting to feel like they won't make the 17th of July for them to be shipped.

The thing is I don't care about getting refunds for shipping or saying they are lying about when they were shipped, I just wish they were better with their communication. Having a page buried down on a site to tell us on the 17th they may ship is not acceptable.

How hard is it for them to send an email simply stating. "Hey there has been a delay for reason 'xyz' and we are really sorry but we are working hard on getting your Nexus 7 to you asap." Any decent communication from them would have gone a long way to reducing the anger seen on this forum.
