update for J&r:

called them today and the guy said they should be receiving shipments weekly. They shipped out pre-order tablets all the way to july 3rd and 4th. I ordered july 4th so they haven't fulfilled that day yet. He said to check back Monday to see if they get more and if they did and your order is "being filled" you can upgrade to 2 day shipment. Otherwise, if you make any changes to your order before it is "being filled" you will be put at the end of the line. Also, I called them a couple of days ago and they refused to do complimentary 2 day shipping, but did upgrade me to standard shipping. The lady at that time also to keep calling and when the order is being filled she said they could probably do complimentary 2 day shipping! I will update this post on Monday!

Unfortunately Borderlinx doesn't ship to Norway for some reason. The price at Clove to Norway anit bad though. £201.33 including shipping.
[Nexus 7 General] toketin:
Ok i didn't know for borderlinx, now Nexus is in stock out on Clove
[Nexus 7 General] okazakiroy:
Walmart told me that mine would ship 7/30 but then they said they will inform me in 2-3 business days. I think i will go for another option. Can we trust MacMall?
[Nexus 7 General] lesrsz28:
I cancelled my Wallamrt order and ordered an 8 threw GP yesterday and it has already shipped. Did not go for the 2 day shipping but they shipped it 2 day air. Should have it on Monday! Wallmart could not tell me what was going on or when it would ship!
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
Yep. It was around 8am when I decided to check the site for fun. I was on the mobile site and it showed everything in stock. I realized when i switched to the desktop site it said out of stock lol. Anyway I just ordered using the mobile site and got through. Forgot to mention that. Right now it's saying "in store only" so I guess your too late.

My order status was "3 days pending shipment" when I ordered at 8am. Now it's saying "processing", it's around 3 pm now. So I'm hoping it will ship today. I'll keep you guys posted.

Also I talked with Staples. A few stores got shipments last night but for 8gb. Mine had 3 left. He said they usually get 16gb on Tuesday's and Wednesday and they usually get around 3 or 4 of them. He also said they don't last more than 12 hours in the store lol.
[Nexus 7 General] azndgn26:
Placed an order on July 25th and just received tracking for shipment to be delivered on August 1st
[Nexus 7 General] rnkoko:
I ordered late afternoon on the 25th, it shipped on the 26th, and should arrive on the 30th according to UPS. At the time of my order, I was told that they had approximately 150 units in stock.

I did pay a shipping fee with Brandsmartusa, but with MacMall, I would have been charged sales tax. B&H was the cheapest option for me, but I'm tired of waiting.
[Nexus 7 General] TypoCorrecto:
No, not late. When I posted that it was in stock and I even went through the checkout process to the end just to see if it was legit, so if wanted then I would have gotten it. I also don't like the $22+ in taxes I would have to pay, that's a case's worth...
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
true.. Well I've gotten use to paying taxes so no issue for me. My total order was $272 I believe. On Google Play it was 282 or something like that with shipping.

I'm just happy I got an order in though.
[Nexus 7 General] mbh017:
Big thanks to you, I finaly got my N7 from this Staples there is 2 days ago... :)

My N7 works perfectly !! :)
[Nexus 7 General] mattaggz:
Success!! My brandsmart order has shipped and will be here Wednesday. I also ordered one from office depot this morning, as a backup. I have yet to see it ship, but it says its scheduled to arrive on Wednesday also. If anyone in the US here is still looking for one, shoot me a PM and its yours, if your willing to pay the total I paid with tax. $272.18
[Nexus 7 General] Itchiee:
I wish the Staples inventory tracker wouldn't give false hope...

Wanted to pick up another Nexus for my girl but came up empty even though the site claimed low stock.

Grrrrrrrr....
[Nexus 7 General] gsmumbo:
I called a few Staples in the DFW area yesterday(Dallas, Tx metroplex) and ended up finding one with about 10 8GBs in stock. When I picked mine up the guys there said that the inventory pages on Staples website could possibly be right(all the stores I called that had said no showed them as in stock on the website) but the trucks probably just came in. They had just received theirs about an hour before I got there.
[Nexus 7 General] Oukiva:
Hi. Is there somewhere an official Google page (blog, forum, announcements,...) about availability of Nexus 7

in countries other that the 4 English privileged ones (USA,UK,CA,AU) ?

Many members like to criticize Apple on this forum, but at least when Apple launch a new product

he tries to make it available everywhere in the world at nearly the same time.

If for some reason it's not possible in a given country, he will give the different availability date.

Here it looks like Google/Nexus says nothing (or I didn't find it).

Nobody seems to have a precise idea even for Europe countries, and much worse for Asian ones !

I think that Google is given himself again a bad image of "the American giant" looking down on the rest of World...

So any URL from Google to show me that I am wrong ? :cool:

Help with buying from Carphone Warehouse

Hi,

Has anyone else ordered from Carphone Warehouse? I ordered from them Thursday (I am having it shipped to Borderlinx) and got an order confirmation but I haven't received any email confirmation about that the shipment has been sent.

I payed with a Visa Electron which was accepted even though I'm not from the UK but they haven't drawn or reserved any money from my bank account. To contact them by email you have to have a UK mobile number which I don't have. Any ideas what to do?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] LondonLion:
I walked into a Carphone store yesterday (Ealing Boradway, West London) and bought one over the counter, maybe go to a store and see if they can track your order, if they havent done anything with it, cancel it, and see if they have one in store?
[Nexus 7 General] :
Thanks for the suggestion but I'm in Denmark so that would be a long trip :)
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
It wouldn't be if you had an SR-71 :D LOL

I got a emal fom walmart

I ordered 7/18 at walmart. At that time, they says it should have arrived on 7/25 but still not coming.

I asked via phone about nexus 7 shipping, but they said shipped yesterday'(7/26), 'shipped but not sent'(7/26), 'just released'(7/27) ..so I was confused, and I got a email.

they said

According to our records your order is still processing because the fulfillment center has the item as in preorder status. Please let us know if you will wait for the item to be shipped or you would prefer to cancel the order. It is possible the item ships on July 30 but we do not have an estimated delivery day yet.

I think Google shipped Nexus 7 to walmart 7/25 and walmart got it at 7/27. Then they start to ship this thing from 7/27 or are going to start 7/30. What the...
[Nexus 7 General] kaysonyung:
I have got my shipping email from Walmart today:o

Will arrive on Jul 30, 2012. :p:p:p:p:p:p:p
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
Why don't you try to give them a call. you should have received your Order number in the confirmation email.

I think their helpdesk is open till 8 today.

I managed to pick up the last one that my local staples had last night.
[Nexus 7 General] tntt:
very weird situation with carphone warehouse.

A friend of mine in London went to buy two nexus 7 16gb for me, he walked into a carphone warehouse store he asked for it and they said they only had one in stock, He bought it and they advised him to go to another of their stores which had 3 in stock. When he arrived their and asked to buy one they told him they don't sell them in their stores yet but they only have one per shop for in-store testing.

Note that the one he got is sealed and unused.

I read here others buying them from Carphone Warehouse. The whole store sounds weird. Is there any other place that stocks them ?
[Nexus 7 General] :
Dafuq!? Can you hook me up? :p

Thanks. I would but I think you have to be a UK resident to buy from their site according to their terms of condition. Don't you think they would notice that it's an international call? I'm guessing they would also notice that the address I gave for shipping is a forwarding address? Don't know. Maybe I should contact Borderlinx and see if they could help me with a UK mobile number.
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
I'm actually sort of in the same boat. I called them up today, and they asked me the name. I gave them my name (I've paid with my Visa Debit) but I've should given them the name of my friend. I'm using his name and address to ship it to since he currently stays in the UK and they request this person to call. So, you should be good if you give them a call and the proper info to help you out with (name of the receiver) what's happening with your order .

I've asked my friend also to give them a call.

As soon as I have any update I will let you know.
[Nexus 7 General] :
Okay awesome. So you have also ordered from the with a foreign credit card and they haven't shipped your order? I'm going to try and tweet their support tomorrow. I noticed from another tweet that the link they give on Twitter to contact them by email doesn't require a mobile number only a contact number. If that doesn't work I'm going to try and call them after I hear your update.

BTW did they also

not

draw or reserve anything on your bank account?

Thank you!
[Nexus 7 General] nocode99:
If you guys are in NY, go to the Sears in Rego Park (Queens). I went to their site and they were listed as having stock and drove there last night and picked one up. I asked the guy and he said there they had a good amount. I was able to get the 16GB model
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
Yup, Visa Electron and nothing was deducted yet. Order was made last week. The friend that will receive the package will be leaving back here on Wednesday. That was the actual reason to take them since they have one day shipping according their website. I've also sent them an email earlier last week (i filled in a fake phone number and made clear why in the email) and they've sent me this automated response:

That would be latest on Monday for a response.

Either way, i should have a response back by tomorrow from my friend. Will let you know.
[Nexus 7 General] :
4 day response time is really slow. I always check every site I buy something from but of course I forgot with this one... http://www.trustpilot.co.uk/review/www.carphonewarehouse.com

Carphone Warehouse doesn't accept non-UK cards
[Nexus 7 General] vanschlong:
Got my n7 from hmv in Leeds yesterday, they had at least 10 in. Wanted the 8gb but they only had the 16 so got that instead. Loving it so far except for the lack of flash support.
[Nexus 7 General] JoshRH:
Most Sears stores have received 1-5 of the 16 gb for those still looking.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
LOL I'll see what I can do :D
[Nexus 7 General] ceejay83:
edit
[Nexus 7 General] Rittzy:
Cheers for the heads up man, I just reserved mine from HMV in Belfast, Donegal Place! Going down later today to get it :D
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
I just got of the phone with them portraying as my friend ;)

They told me the item will be picked up by the delivery company this afternoon, and it should arrive tomorrow during the day. The guy on the phone told me my card will be deducted and a tracking code will be send to me later today. I also asked him about using a non UK Visa card, and he told me there was no issue. Let hope he is right.
[Nexus 7 General] :
That sounds awesome. I just got in touch with them on Twitter and he gave me a link to a contact form so hopefully I will get the same result. Otherwise I'll call them. Thank you for the help and the update!

Damn. Just got a reply from them:

I was told to contact them on a phone number they provided. That sucks. They probably won't ship to a forwarding address... Quick response though.
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
Damn, that sucks. Did you give them a ring? Otherwise cancel this order and order one trough HMV? They should have shipping to most countries in Europe.
[Nexus 7 General] :
No not yet. I'm watching Formula 1 (commercial break) :) I was actually planning to order through HMV if this didn't work out but they don't ship the N7 specifically to Europe... I'm going to try with HMV and Borderlinx if it doesn't work with Carphone Warehouse though.

EDIT: Just called them and I was told that they didn't accept international credit cards so my order is cancelled :( Am probably going to try at HMV then...
[Nexus 7 General] mustashfa:
My friend and I actually bought ours at HMV in York yesterday, when we went for the rail museum visit.
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
That is weird. Guess the guy that helped me gave me the wrong info then.

Hmm, I'm going to give them another call then also. This sucks.
[Nexus 7 General] :
I would wait till tomorrow just in case they made a mistake and assumed that your credit card was registered to the delivery address you provided. In that case they would probably charge you and send it no problem.

On another note I checked HMV and they only accept UK cards so since Carphone Warehouse so easily figured out that I was using a forwarding address I'm not even going to try at HMV. The only other places in Europe I can find that has it in stock (and who are selling it for GBP200) are Tesco, Argos. Tesco and Argos aren't a possibility for the same reason though.

Has anyone got any ideas where else in Europe this damn tablet can be found?..
[Nexus 7 General] lord dredd:
Guys

I have a relative in Louisville KY, they will be coming to meet us here, can you please link me up with some stores over there in Louisville which are having it, the 16gb version in stock so that they can buy it for me.

I all be highly thankful

Buttery Smooth THS15 Deviled
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
Yup, just got off the phone with Tesco and with Carphone warehouse. Next to forwarding, they also only access Visa cards that are registered in the UK...

What a hassle. Maybe the US is a possibility or John Lewis (they even have shipping to Europe). Although you will have to wait a bit.
[Nexus 7 General] :
Ok I see. Yeah John Lewis is a possibility. I actually just emailed them about when they'll have the Nexus 7 in stock. I will report back. I think it's cheaper to have them ship to a Borderlinx address and have them ship it to you though. I read earlier in the thread that they offered a guy from Denmark the N7 for GBP250 including shipping and I can't imagine it's radically cheaper for Romania(?). Regarding ordering from the US I don't know about your country but in Denmark I'll get ripped off in customs so unfortunately that is not a possibility for me.
[Nexus 7 General] GentlemanLoserNL:
goonsum ra

Yeah, then maybe they are a possibility. And shipping to your borderlinx would be smarter indeed money wise. Atleast they should be accepting non UK cards.

I'm asking my friend to go to a shop and try to pick one up for me. This is hassle enough already. Regarding customs... let's just say we have 'special' customs :p
[Nexus 7 General] :
Good luck. We do too. Just the other way around hehe...
[Nexus 7 General] Cerian:
I apparently did not figure out that there was a page more before replying... but yeah, as stated earlier I'm from Denmark as well and the cheapest solution I've found was John Lewis and have them send it to Borderlinx. Else you can have them ship it directly to Denmark though that is more expensive.. around £250, about the same as it would cost from Handtec..
[Nexus 7 General] suhailtheboss:
bought two 16gb from a walmart here in KCK yesterday.

their website showed it as being in stock, asked someone in electronics he said "no we dont have those"

i asked why the website said they were in stock, he searched the system, "well....it says we have 10....let me look"

after 15 minutes he came back with a box filled with 10.
[Nexus 7 General] :
@Cerian Okay thank you

I just found out that Borderlinx has a service where they purchase the item for you. It's only 10USD so I'm willing to sacrifice that instead of waiting for stock in other stores. The only problem is that there seems to be a bug on their site. Even though I change the country to the UK and the form says "enter the price in GBP" it shows up as USD so I'm going to contact them tomorrow to sort it out.
[Nexus 7 General] Whiskey_Tango:
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but MacMall has hundreds of the 16 GB model. You can order one online or buy it from one of their stores like I did.
[Nexus 7 General] baezl:
Walmart in Fort Walton Beach , FL Has them

Aynyone in the NW FL area looking for one, Walmart in FWB has the 16gb model in stock.

[Nexus 7 General] sRDennyCrane:

[Nexus 7 General] randpost:
I went to a staples today in Phoenix that stated online that they were out of stock, but had both 16gb and 8gb N7's in stock. I purchased my 3rd N7 today. Try your local staples!

picture of receipt:
[Nexus 7 General] kiewee3:
Are there any 8gb nexus 7's in store, except for staples?
[Nexus 7 General] Whiskey_Tango:
9.10% tax :/
[Nexus 7 General] BurnRubber90:
B&H anyone?
[Nexus 7 General] nameless-:
I grabbed a 16gb from super walmart today. they had 6 in stock
[Nexus 7 General] polbit:
Same here - went to Walmart, they had 5 in stock, just got them last night according to the clueless sales girl. Has to show her the UPC number, had no idea what Nexus 7 was.
[Nexus 7 General] harajuka:
Damn, I had no such luck.. Checked 2 Walmart's near me today and they did not have it even though, online their system shows in stock. I had them check at the store and it shows in stock but at both store they could not find where the stock was :(
[Nexus 7 General] randpost:
I bet they didn't even know what the Nexus was. You should have asked them to go check the cage in the back where they lock up all newly arriving electronics and jewelry etc.
[Nexus 7 General] lord dredd:
Guys what about the warranty, it says that check the manual, I will get my piece in about 10 days from now,

I hope N 7 has a global international warranty , so we can avail that anywhere

Plz confirm.

[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
I ordered from them on July 25th. Still waiting for it to ship.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
It's less here, 7.375% in Mendocino County, 7.875% in the incorporated cities of Ukiah, Fort Bragg and Point Arena and 8.375% in the incorporated city of Fort Bragg, those are the only incorporated towns in our county.
[Nexus 7 General] wrc1010:
I order my nexus 7 from brandsmartusa.com on 27/7/12 but until today not yet receive any shipping tracking detail. I heard someone say their store have many nexus 7 in stock and they are getting their shipping tracking around 2 hours after place an order.

Any idea?
[Nexus 7 General] gogol:
Hi all,

I live in The Netherlands.

Which stores are my options to import from UK?

I will use Borderlinx to have UK address. But, my credit card is still from The Netherlands.

Thanks for any advice.
[Nexus 7 General] :
You can use Borderlinx concierge feature. Basically this means that you pay Borderlinx the cost of the item and the cost of shipping to the UK if that is not free from the merchant's side + a USD10 fee and they'll buy the item for you. I tried this but whenever I add an item instead of showing GBP it shows USD (you'll know what I'm talking about if you try it). If you choose to buy it this way maybe you can tell me if this also happens to you? I also contacted them about this and they'll get back to me later today.

The stores that have the Nexus 7 in stock AFAIK are Carphone Warehouse (free one day shipping), HMV (free shipping) and Tesco (standard delivery £3)

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

If anyone is interested I just got this mail from JohnLewis:
[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
Does this apply to international customers through the export service or just the UK?
[Nexus 7 General] :
They will ship internationally but you have to contact them to get a quote. It's probably cheaper to do it with Borderlinx though. A Nexus 7 shipped from them to is £250 to Denmark I think.
[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
Should be cheaper with VAT being removed from the total (I live in Norway so I shouldn't have to pay VAT). Also Borderlinx for some reason doesn't ship to Norway.

I've sent them an e-mail asking for a quote. I contacted them last week too, but they said they were sold out and wouldn't get more units in 8-10 weeks. Hopefully this time I can get one in early August for not much more than £200 (which would be about the same price I got on my current order at B&H).
[Nexus 7 General] mattaggz:
I ordered mine from bransmart on the 25th...It took me hassling them for 2 days before i finally got my shipping info, I called maybe 6 times in 2 days. Finally I spoke with a manager and told them I wanted to cancel. They told me I couldn't. I said to the manager that If I did receive the shipping info by the end of the day I would call VISA and dispute the charge, because they already charged me and I didn't have the item yet. (Other online merchants leave it pending until shipping). He got very frantic and put me on hold. After 5 mins I had a tracking number. Should be here tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
Just talked to B&H on their Live Chat (again), and they had this to say regarding the availability of the Nexus 7.

And here is what Clove told me today regarding what they know about when they will receive more units.
[Nexus 7 General] Twobz:
Any body looking to get the Nexus 7 now. Radioshack.com has them in stock and ready to ship in 2 to 3 days. With free shipping and the choice to have it delivered to your nearest Radio Shack for free.

Anyone an idea where I can get the 16GB tablet in the NY area?

Thanks

[Nexus 7 General] Archbob:
Is there any store that has them in stock now? I'd rather buy one locally.
[Nexus 7 General] hullbay:
Check Gamestop
[Nexus 7 General] Twobz:
You can check your local walmart. That is where a lot of others have gotten them from in stores. Go to walmarts website and look for the store closest to you they may have it posted how many they have in stock. If you go in and ask some may not know what your talking about. If they dont have them, have some one check them in the back. They have a locked case for all of the newer tech items.
[Nexus 7 General] gjsii13:
GameStop just told me September..... Again. I ordered July 20th and really thought today would be the day.
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
Well just to update. Office Depot stayed true to their word and my order placed on the 27th has shipped for delivery the 1st. Also the Play store now has 16gb back in stock. Now to find me a good case.
[Nexus 7 General] clos101:
Play store has them both in stock again...
[Nexus 7 General] randpost:
Almost all Walmart in Phoenix valley have them in stock. 16gb. Picked my 4th nexus today.
[Nexus 7 General] jenskristian:
Here is the response I got from John Lewis. Nothing about getting new units on August 3rd.

I have to say I'm seriously considering placing an order with them as well and just hope they don't ship the same day, so I'll have to cancel one of them.

Update:

I've placed an order with John Lewis too. Will let you guys know when one of my orders ship so rest of you can hop on :)
[Nexus 7 General] DouglasDubya:
Well looks like they're coming into stock more now; went and got #2 at Walmart today and it seems to be alright, minor ghosting but I think it was just the screen warming up.

For those still looking: Walmart, Sams and Staples are your best bets it seems.
